This book was so good! Great retelling of a story we have all known forever. Kept me on my toes, and now I want to read the next one to find out what happens next!

Some nights, no matter how late it is, you just need to escape to another world for a bit...

Agent Megan O‘Malley and Chief Mitch Holt investigate the disappearance of a young boy in a small, sleepy Minnesota town. Disappointingly dated and sexist. ⭐️⭐️ With this I have completed the #booked2019 winter prompts. Yay me! 😁 #booked2019 #booked2019winter #femaledetective

Cinfhen Yay!!!! Congrats 🎉 🎉 🎉 6y

A young married couple make an unexpected discovery while on their honeymoon in Bora Bora that with irrevocably change their life together. Not enough thrill or mystery for my taste. Definitely was not enough Bora Bora because the sun, a sandy beach and the ocean are my happy place ☀️🏖🏝 ⭐️⭐️ #booked2019 #booked2019winter #remindsyouofyourhappyplace #sunsandbeach

Cinfhen My library hold just came in today...now I‘m nervous 😬 6y

I‘m not a big fan of fairytale retellings and tend to avoid them but I‘m so happy I gave this book a chance. What a refreshing and imaginative take on the classic Cinderella story. Strong likeable characters and wonderful storyline possibilities. Automatically borrowed book 2 from Libby as soon as I finished this one. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #booked2019 #booked2019winter #fairytaleretelling

Shaneyney I have this set but haven‘t gotten to it yet. Is it good? 6y
Cinfhen Glad you enjoyed it!! 6y
throwmeabook @Shaneyney I really enjoyed it! Can‘t wait to start Scarlet (book 2). 6y

Looking for Alaska | John Green

Mehso-so

Introvert boy moves to boarding school, meets some eccentric characters, beautiful mysterious girl, does a lot of smoking and drinking, pulls some pranks and suffers a terrible tragedy. Could have been better, should have been better. John Green and his brother Hank have a quirky podcast called ‘Dear Hank and John‘. ⭐️⭐️ #booked2019 #booked2019winter #relatedtoapodcast #dearhankandjohn

Cinfhen This one doesn‘t seem to be a John Green favorite 🙄but at least it completes a prompt ‼️‼️ 6y

This was a really good classic mystery story with compelling writing. It‘s fun to read any decent genre novel, but discovering an unknown standout is always special.

Once I got into this I really didn‘t want to put it down (though eventually sleep got the better of me). It took a while for me to see how all the threads wove together, but it‘s been ages since I read proper literary fiction and I really enjoyed the style here.
