My top thoughts: I read this with Linda @ Unconventional Bookworms and I’m so glad that doing buddy reading had me pull this book off my shelves after far too long. We’re talking years. I really enjoyed it and both Linda and I enjoyed it so much that we want to read the next one […]
My top thoughts: This was a surprising read for me and not one I would have picked up on my own, I don’t think. It was a book club pick, but I didn’t start it until the day before book club. Well, guess what? I finished it in time for book club. It was that […]
My top thoughts: Ruth Ware has become one of those authors that I trust 100% because with this book I’ve now read 3 books by her. And all 3 I’m giving 5 stars. For this book, I was pulled along to the very end, wondering what the hell was going on and how it would […]
My top thoughts: Gah! What a way to end the series! I’m so sad it’s over and I totally started stalling the last couple chapters because I wasn’t ready for it to be over. I really want to reread it, too, I think. I feel like Darynda did a really good job bringing things to […]
I am loving the viking type stories. Most of them aren’t about real vikings but more of the idea of them. Warrior of the Wild was a book that followed the viking law but was more of a fantasy story set in a viking world. I loved it, while I wasn’t a huge fan of […]
Bad planning and lack of interesting characters has kept me from finishing this book on time. The story follows Farway Gaius McCarthy who was born outside of the grid. Basically he was born in between time. Which just confuses me since wouldn’t he just be born in whatever day they are originally in even if […]
My top thoughts: I liked the relationships and family dynamics a lot. The southern, high society world with its complicated webs was portrayed in a fun way. And the mystery was satisfying, with a couple unexpected twists. Overall Iiked it and will plan on reading the sequel. Who I think would like it: If you […]
I can get lost in this book and when I stop reading I actually have to give myself a minute to adjust. It also has a tendency to creep back into your head and you have to stop for a minute to figure out if that was something that actually happened to you or did […]
My top thoughts: I read this book over an extended period, in little snippets as part of my Miracle Morning routine. I really enjoyed the way Snyder was able to provide concrete examples in just the last century of pitfalls to democracy and stable society that we are currently observing happening again. It was very […]
