Mehso-so

Possibly wrong time, read it because I thought it might be a bit of light hearted fun and I probably wasn‘t really in a place to appreciate that.
Loved the female characters, story just wasn‘t doing it for me.
Sansa not much impressed either.
And I can‘t decide what to read next.....

BarbaraBB Such a cute picture!! 5y

squirrelbrain Well, if Sansa didn‘t like it either.... 5y
Cathythoughts Lovely pic ❤️ 5y
Reggie May I suggest Camp Carnage. I looked it up and it‘s also free on Amazon UK. Think, Friday the 13th at a conversion therapy summer camp. It‘s also funny. Sometimes we need to fall back on our horror roots, TrishB. Sansa, lovely as always! 😊 (edited) 5y
Caroline2 Yeah I just finished a light, fluffy read and it was a meh from me too. I‘m too fed up for fluff! I‘m reading a Victorian gothic mystery now which is nice and dark which suits my mood! 😉 5y
MicheleinPhilly Sansa. 🥰🥰🥰 5y
TrishB @squirrelbrain it didn‘t even get a doggy sniff! 5y
erzascarletbookgasm Haha it‘s sending Sansa to sleep? 😄🥰 Maybe continue the Kim Stone series? 5y
TrishB @Reggie thank you- just brought 😘 5y
TrishB @Caroline2 that sounds good- will look out for your review 👍🏻 5y
TrishB @erzascarletbookgasm that will be a likely next week 😁 5y

Pickpick

Picked this up at the library because I liked the title. Turns out it was about the mafia, two retired porn stars, an older widow and her teenage granddaughter, money and murder. Reminded me a lot of an Elmore Leonard novel. Wasn‘t my usual fare but the female characters were terrific and the men in the story got what was coming to them. 😀

Leftcoastzen Love your review!😁 6y
LeahBergen That‘s the title of one of those little 1970s gift books, isn‘t it? 😆 6y
Reggie Lol, what a surprise!!! 6y
