It was difficult at first to read because of the emphasized grammatical errors but I understand why the author took such risks - it set the tone for the entire novel. Emotional at the very end.. but a very intriguing and worthwhile read.

nerdymsft @Reggie it hit me really hard at the very end 😢😪 7y
Reggie Yeah, the part where the workers stand up for him and the part where he doesn‘t know why the teacher got emotional(because he had forgotten about them). Those got me. There‘s a movie but the book was enough for me. Lol 7y
nerdymsft @Reggie yeah. I heard of the movie too but I‘ll pass 😂😂😂 7y
Louise Oh, yes, such a moving book! It's the kind that stays with you. What a fun Litsy handle you chose, by the way! Well done! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 7y
nerdymsft @Louise for sure! I don‘t normally cry but this book pushed me to tears! And thank you! 😊 7y
Austen_Nerd I read many years ago for school. It made an impact than. I don‘t think I could watch the movie. 7y
nerdymsft @Austen_Nerd yeah. I wouldn‘t wanna ruin my memories of the book with a movie 7y

#firstbook2018 Finished listening to the Hitchhiker‘s Guide to the Galaxy. I think my expectations after hearing what a great book it was after all these years were too high to meet. Still enjoyable, quirky and fun. #read2018

Just finished my #firstbook2018 ! Nothing like starting the year with a terrifying and thought-provoking #dystopia. Some of the plot was a bit jagged, and I found that I was most impressed by the small details and big themes, but less by some of the in-between features (character development, for example). Very impressive book & amazing #lastline

AceOnRoam I struggled with it and gave up. I wouldn't mind your take on it, I still have both the Audiobook and the ebook. 7y
AceOnRoam Oh, have fun at the beach ! 7y

Happy new year everyone! Here is my first book of 2018! What is yours? This was an interesting twist on a classic tale, where the reader gets to learn more about the Beast in his life before the curse. A short and sweet read. If you are a fan for #disney classics & don‘t mind new approaches to stories we all love - then give this book a shot! #bookreview #thebookkeepers #fantasy #youngadult #fiction #fairytales #litsyreview #firstbook2018

Coco Yes there are 4 books in this series and a 5th coming in August!!! Woohoo! I don‘t think this is a series that has to be read in order or anything, I picked my favorite villains first 😛 7y
KaeleyScruggs Oh nice! I've noticed there have been a lot of books published by Disney lately. I'm excited to read the Mulan one coming out! 7y
TheBookKeepers @KaeleyScruggs oh yes Mulan is one of my favorites as well! That will for sure be a great read! Just can‘t go wrong with Disney! 7y

I loved my #FirstBook2018. My favorite story was Inventory - a woman details her relationships and life as she travels East to avoid a deadly virus. This book fulfills so many challenges too! #MountTBRChallenge #LRC (Endorsed by @Liberty ) #LitsyAtoZ #LetterH #ReadingWomenChallenge #ShortStoryCollection

This was just as good on the re-read as it was the first time. And it knocks a book off #MountTBRChallenge (full disclosure, I just bought this last Friday after another Litten‘s discovery that it was $1.99. So it hasn‘t been on the mountain long.) I do love her books and will be using this,along with Tiny Little Thing and Along the Infinite Sea, as the trilogy prompt for #LRC. #firstbook2018 #LetterS

SilversReviews Ohhhhh...I love her books...this one was FAB!! 7y
Pamwurtzler @SilversReviews I think this one is my favorite!! 7y
SilversReviews @Pamwurtzler Me too!! ♥️ 7y

This will be my first book to finish in 2018! I can hardly wait! I have it in both hardback & audiobook. I love her voice. I‘m gonna listen to it at night as I unwind & then sleep on her words!
