Ugh. I read 200 pages of this even though the main character made me uncomfortable in how he treated women. After he broke a woman through horrible interrogation then took her to bed that was more than I could stand.

I‘m only reading this book. Simon & Schuster sent me a physical ARC of this book when I was in their influencer program but I never read it. I‘m listening to it on audio right now. I‘m not enjoying this book. I don‘t think it‘s for me but I‘ll keep reading it. If I can‘t get into it then I‘ll DNF it.

I've been on a roll with spy stories so thought I'd get to this one that has been in my tbr for some time. Fun story about a 14 year old recruited by MI6. Lots of action, and a character you can like.

Listened over audio. I liked this one. Little bit more but still a long book. It was an interesting story about women spies. A good listen while doing puzzles & chores.

I started this book when I went for a walk to the park today. I just listened to the first chapter. I don‘t know what to think about this book. The weather was nice and I enjoyed my walk but I really wish I could‘ve taken my dog Toppy with me. I was planning to take her once the weather got nice again. It felt weird not having her there with me. I cried when I got home. Well at least I got to take her for a walk before she passed away.

This was just a personal preference for me on why I didn‘t care for this one. It was a bit slow for me in my opinion. And the shift in time and characters was really hard to follow especially when trying to absorb the historical elements of the book and the setting. It was a great story. I just didn‘t love it like everyone else does.

100 pages of this book was enough for me. Long rambling passages about Neanderthal life, interspersed with witty dialogue from Sadie who seems to be in the midst of a long term spy operation. I didn‘t stick around to find out as I have too many other books calling me.

Lesliereadsalot You got farther than I did! @Chelsea.Poole 3d
Chelsea.Poole I agree! I finished it but it didn‘t do much for me either! 3d

I just got into the flow, so I read the two next books in the manga series. They really are a lot of fun and very entertaining. It's somehow nice to be back into manga. Reminds me of my youth, when I read a lot of them.

lil1inblue I often turn to Manga when I need a comfort read. My husband reads a lot of Manga, so there's always something available, too. 😍 4d
Jari-chan @lil1inblue Oh, I love that you can turn to your husband's collection when you need to 🥰 4d
