Not bad :) I hated most the characters though, but it held my interest. Finished this while waiting on my doc appointment - now twiddle my thumbs till they see me :(

March 2025 Book #5
I own like three special editions of this book because they are beautiful and I thought I would love this book. This book has mixed reviews. I‘m in the side of very disappointed team. The writing style is so different of what I use to read by this author, it was like someone else wrote it. The premise is so interesting but I found it extremely boring. Maybe because I was expecting action, intrigue, I don‘t know something else⬇️

I loved this. It was not what I expected, but that may be a good thing. Billy was my favorite, of course, but all the characters had their moments. And the prose was memorable. (Map in the background does not include the Lincoln Highway, but it‘s what I had in the house. 🤷🏻♀️) #bookspin @TheAromaofBooks

The writing was a little too stream of consciousness for me, but the breadth of history was fascinating.
79/80

This was a cute witchy romance!
The premise is super fun. It‘s about two witches who fall in love during a spell casting reality show competition. The competition parts were very entertaining to read.
The romance aspect worked very well. The two leads, Penelope and Gil, made a great couple. I loved their dynamic and their chemistry.

I love Elizabeth Strout‘s characters and have been reading her canon in a random sequence. Lucy Barton intrigues me most so it was great to return to Lucy‘s hometown of Amgash, Ill and read 9 short stories of those who intersected her life (some significant, others inconsequential) as a child and teen. I understand Lucy so much better even though she is the MC to one short story. And ohh, her cousin, Abel 🥰

I'm about 75% done with my #BookSpin but it's not a good curl up on the coach story for Friday night reading. So I figured I'd start November's #DoubleSpin
