Low Pick 3½⭐
This freaking amazing cover just kept drawing me in…until finally I caved and listened to it. While I didn‘t love it, I did like certain aspects of it quite a lot. All of them happen in the last quarter of the book and I can‘t give those away, so that‘s all I‘m going to say about that. The only reason this is labeled “ya” is because the MCs are in high school…that‘s it. Otherwise, it is decidedly adult because of the graphicness.

Was not prepared for how creepy this book is. I guess the cover should have given me a clue but geez...😳 Suspenseful and action packed and did I mention creepy? Character motivations didn‘t seem quite right to me but otherwise it was...creepy.

BookwormM Cool cover 4y

I really dislike horror. But. This book, a Stranger Things meets ET, was really trippy. Interesting premise; great ending. (But so so dark).

A creepy, quick YA read. The story follows Liv, whose father has disappeared. Before going missing, Lee was a local teacher. He went crazy before losing his job & everyone in town knows about it. Then Liv & her friend Doug seem to find out that maybe Lee wasn't as crazy as everyone thought. I won't give anything away, but the end of this book is not what I was expecting at all. It really took me by surprise & made the story all the more timely.

Bonus from working at home - my lunches are a lot more healthier than if I was actually at work. Plus I get a view of outside! Could deal without the husband bothering me though 🤣

Almost half way through this book and not sure how I feel about it.

Nute I know that if I had an opportunity to work from home that my lunches would increase significantly in nutritional value!😃 5y

abookdragonsretreat I've recently bought this book, let me know if it's any good! Is there any romance so far ? 😊📖 5y

Curiouser_and_curiouser Yum! You've got it all! And a window to boot! My hubby worked from home for over 10 years, I know what you mean...how peaceful is it when they're out?! I work mostly on weekends and some nights so I always make sure I make myself a beautiful nutritious lunch when I'm home alone in the day. My weekend meals are mostly a container of fruit 😊 5y

TheLibrarian @Nute I never realized how poor nutrition wise my lunches work until I started working from home this week. 5y

TheLibrarian @AmyTheBookdragon No romance so far. Not sure if that‘s a plus for you or not. Hoping to finish it soon. I just need to hunker down and spend some quality time just reading. 5y

TheLibrarian @Curiouser_and_curiouser So peaceful! Also when I‘m working, the hubby‘s at his desk planning video games so I hear a lot of clicking. Fruit is an excellent lunch! 5y

abookdragonsretreat @TheLibrarian ah thats good, hoping that it's very dark and eerie! 5y

BittersweetBooks Ha! I‘m the opposite because I pack a healthy lunch with healthy snacks. When I‘m at home, there are too many close-by temptations 😋 5y

TheLibrarian @BittersweetBooks I‘ve tried packing healthier but then I get hungry and there is a little cafe with snacks that‘s hard to resist sometimes (especially the chocolate). 5y

BittersweetBooks @TheLibrarian hmm that sounds tempting too haha 5y

Gissy I'm eating healthier since I'm in this quarantine too! 5y

TheLibrarian @AmyTheBookdragon Just finished it today! It was different than I thought. Less scary and touched on some more serious topics. Overall it wasn‘t bad but not my favorite. 5y

abookdragonsretreat @TheLibrarian good to hear, I'm looking forward to reading it! 5y

Whew. This one got really dark really fast. I couldn't finish. Maybe it served a purpose but I don't do very well with torture.
