It is obvious that the author fully researched the time and places of Philadelphia‘s life. Unfortunately, for me, too little actual evidence remains to build a true picture of her subject. She has conjured an appealing portrait of Philadelphia and those of her acquaintance but there‘s not enough substance in my opinion to feel I now know about Jane Austen‘s Remarkable Aunt.

Librarybelle I was wondering about this one, and I too have an ARC of it (just haven‘t had a chance to read it yet). Good review! 2d

julesG @LeeRHarry me too. Currently enjoying a few muscle cramps where the loosened muscles start to tighten up again. I swear, my body is working on creating a shell. I must be part Galapagos turtle after all. Let's hope I also got the genes for longevity. 😉 2d

I procrastinated reading the procrastination book!

I was drawn to this book as I'm neurodivergent and struggle with procrastination.

I read this on my Kindle and much of the book was unreadable. Sections had no spaces between words, words would be different sizes or bolded. I assume these were formatting errors that would be sorted out before publication.

Unfortunately, this made it difficult to read and the worksheets looked odd.

⬇️

PuddleJumper Onto the parts I could read, I think some people would find this useful. It wasn't anything new. If you're already struggling with procrastination or executive dysfunction then this is stuff you'll already be aware of.

PuddleJumper This advice might work for some people, it doesn't for me. If I'm procrastinating then I'm not going to follow a worksheet or write a list. Or I'll write the best list ever with so much detail and then never do it because in my mind I've already done the task and gotten the reward from planning it.

Thanks to #Netgalley for the #ARC

Susanita Yikes. The typesetting problems alone would probably have me throwing the book across the room. 3d
PuddleJumper @Susanita If it wasn't an ARC I would have. I feel like I have to finish ARCs unless they are terrible 😅 3d

This book sucked me in completely for a few days and it became the book that I thought about most about when I was not reading it. Loved the dual POVs for Max and Vincent, it was a great way to give us a more in-depth look at these 2 very complex characters. Loved, loved the ending!

This is my first time reading the author and I can‘t wait to read Bellies now.

I highly recommend this book!

#NetGalley #ARC

I finished this cozy mystery on December 31 and forgot to post my review. Edie has suffered a lot of loss in her life and as a result has closed herself off to most people. When a murderer draws her in to his plans she tries to protect her police inspector nephew and figure the puzzle out on her own. I enjoyed this quite a bit even though the MC is hard to like.

Magpiegem I finished it on 1st Jan (very annoying I didn‘t finish it in time for a Jan clean slate) I read her other Christmas book last year and I think this one was slightly better but all her Christmas books seem to have unlikeable protagonists! 4d

This is lovely. I'm going out on a limb and comparing it to Three by Valerie Perrin. I loved that book. I loved this book quite nearly as much.

Ok so is this totally cheesy and predictable? Yes. But did I love it anyway? Also, yes. Sometimes you just need that book to escape into and this was that for me.

3.25⭐️

Book 5 of the Time Police series does not disappoint. Sadly, no St Mary's involvement, but that might be for the better.

Team Weird, together with Team 235 have to stop a runaway steam train that's been chug-chug-chugging all over the timeline and across several continents.

Meanwhile at TPHQ there is a funding and staffing problem. The latter might be solved by throwing officers down the stairs.

julesG #NetGalley #ARC Because of the publication of the paperback edition. 6d
