OutsmartYourShelf
Never Fade | Alexandra Bracken

Ruby is now working for the League, leading a team of teens with special abilities to try & bring down the corrupt government. The League learn of a possible breakthrough, the reason why they developed these abilities & possibly a way to treat it. This valuable information is safely stored on a flashdrive & Ruby is sent on a side mission to retrieve it (continued)

OutsmartYourShelf - only trouble is, it's sewn into the lining of a jacket currently being worn by Liam Stewart, the boy she loved & left.

In a lot of dystopian trilogies, the middle book hits a bit of a lull but for me this second book was better than the first. The pace & plot never lets up & there are some surprises along the way. There are also some interesting new characters I really liked, namely Vida & Jude. Yeah, I really liked this one. 4🌟

Another good installment in The Diva Series by Krista Davis. I enjoy Davis' cozies! I always find myself smiling or laughing when I read one. 4⭐️

Finished earlier in the week for #NancyDrewBR
This one did not seem familiar to me, so is it a reread or not? Hmmm… 🤔 Anyway, not my favorite book, but still a pick for nostalgia. This one (I read the 1973 version) is set in a little seaside town, drivable from River Heights. Again, where is River Heights because I keep reading Midwest? Maybe it‘s a lake beach town?🤷🏻‍♀️ Anyway Nanners & her girls are there to ⬇️

DebinHawaii … meet/help Mr. Drew‘s client & they stumble into a couple of mysteries, one involving a ghost & the other perfume/cosmetics/investment fraud. I like a good small sea town setting, but there was too much Ned in this one for me. If the drive for Nancy & friends was a long one, how is Ned in the neighborhood as a insurance salesman none the less? It sends a stalkerish vibe & Nancy “needs” or gets a lot of rescuing from him in this one. 🙄 ⬇️ (edited) 2d
DebinHawaii … ***Small noggin spoiler*** There are no blows to the head in this one, so no #NNK count & we are still 10/23 however there is “drugging” with mysterious fumes which can‘t be good for her head either ( it hopefully explains her disheveled look on the cover).🤕 There‘s also little people bad guys (called “dwarves & elves”)😳that are an interesting but needless addition. 🤷🏻‍♀️

… All in all it will make for interesting #NancyDrewBR discussion.

Ruthiella River Heights is like Dr. Who‘s TARDIS. It magically has everything you might need- a ferry, a castle, TWO synthetic fiber factories…😂 2d

dabbe I love that line “pick for nostalgia“. That's how I mostly feel rereading these books. 2d
Librarybelle It should be a fun discussion! (edited) 2d
bookandbedandtea @Ruthiella @Bookwormjillk I always loved that about River Heights! It's close to mountains, seaside, farm country, and lake resorts and contains every type of business and dwelling imaginable. Growing up, I loved Narnia but I didn't want to live there. I wanted to live in River Heights! 😂 2d
DebinHawaii @Ruthiella @Bookwormjillk @bookandbedandtea Hah! So true. It truly is a magical place full of arts, culture, commerce & history with no shortage of missing nobles & heiresses! 🤣 2d
