Here‘s my review for this book I didn‘t finish. This is also a #TeamBuddyRead but I‘m not going to count it towards the #wintergames and I‘m not going to do the #wordsearch on it.

I decided to start this book. I read A Christmas Carol which is a #TeamBuddyRead and this is also a #TeamBuddyRead. I listened to the first 3 chapters of this book and I don‘t like it but I‘m hoping it gets better. If not then I‘ll DNF it.

Here‘s my review for a book I just finished reading. This will count as a #TeamBuddyRead and it also gave me a lot of points when I did the #wordsearch for it. This will count as a Winter/Holiday book for the #wintergames.

Should be my last book post of the day! I finally read this one! It‘s been on my TBR since we first did #AuldLangSpine originally #NewYearWhoDis and it was on @BookNAround ‘s list! (I think).

This was a great read. Probably would have read differently a few years ago. An Anishinaabe community goes dark and they don‘t know why. They lose power, tv, internet, everything and don‘t know why. They have to figure out how to survive in the winter.

BookNAround I‘m so glad you enjoyed it. I just bought the sequel a couple of days ago and am hoping I enjoy it as much as the original. 11mo

Finished my #Scarathlon #TeamBuddyRead yesterday. Between so-so & pick. I liked the premise of Alex hiding from her notoriety & trying to find out why her parents were murdered & the pacing was good, but there were too many characters & red herrings added in & the big twists seemed pretty obvious to me. Not every #Kill was plausible either but it had enough to warrant using it for today‘s #ScarathlonPhotoChallenge prompt.

A good point getter ⬇️

Clwojick Woohoo! Well done! 🖤 13mo

Mehso-so

A gorgeous cover and interesting premise got me intrigued, but overall this book was very disappointing. The FMC attends an elite girls prep school, returning after a year away dealing with mental health breakdown due to the traumatic death of her best friend/secret girlfriend. The dark academia aesthetic really failed for me, since despite numerous references to the FMC‘s intended thesis there‘s basically no magical explanation or studies. More >

Kimberlone There was nothing engaging about any of the characters, the FMC mainly complains about how terrible it is to go from being rich and popular to only rich. The side characters have no personality or any purpose in the plot, the trans/non-binary character was totally shoe-horned in and had no bearing on the overall story. Utterly befuddled by the ending and epilogue. The audio narration was also frustrating since Alex and Ellis sounded so similar. 13mo
PuddleJumper Ah that's a shame! Going to read that next week 13mo
