#motherdaughterread
Daughter started the Collins the minute she got in from work!

Deblovestoread One thing Amazon has over B & N is pub day delivery, so I'm waiting for the Collins to arrive. Super interested in The Artist. 2w
Sace @Deblovestoread another thing is ease of ordering. I cannot tell you how many times B&N has canceled one of my orders because they need extra verification. 🤣 2w
Deblovestoread @Sace. I‘ve never had that problem with B&N 🤞🏼 I don‘t as I‘m trying to stay away from Amazon. I didn‘t word my comment very well. My book shipped today rather than arriving today 😩 2w

Bookwomble @Deblovestoread My indie bookseller told me that Amazon uses its stranglehold to insist as much as it can (which is a lot) that publishers prioritise the initial print run to them, so they tend to have the book available first. Personally, I'm happy waiting a few days to support my local store rather than further bloating the Bezos bank balance. 2w
Deblovestoread @Bookwomble I admit to getting a little FOMO when I see a book i want but I too am content to wait. It‘s not like I don‘t have anything else to read 😂 2w
Sace @Bookwomble @Deblovestoread I‘m also trying to use Amazon less (and just buying fewer books in general). I‘ve had luck with ThriftBooks and I am going to try Bookshop.org (since I can also support the StoryGraph too). 2w
kspenmoll I have had lots of luck with Thrift Books, Book Outlet, & Blackwells. I buy 1 book per month from my Indie bookstore at 20% discount. I just got lots of upcoming #dundaybuddyread books from Thrift books. I used to use Amazon but not now. (edited) 2w
Cathythoughts Lovely 👯 2w
Oryx How did C like the Collins? I'm debating getting it. Appeals to me more than songbirds did. Are you reading it? 2w
TrishB @Oryx she‘s still reading it- but loving it. Was crying over something in it yesterday and going mad she had no one to talk about it with. I haven‘t read them at all 😱 and have now promised I will before the film of this one comes out. 2w
Oryx @TrishB oh I assumed you had read the others! 2w
TrishB @Oryx not yet! 2w

BarbaraBB Such a fantastic book. And that ending ❤️💔 13mo
TrishB @jlhammar hoping to finish today. 13mo
TrishB @Hooked_on_books I was having a very bad day earlier in the week and messaged Helen and said I‘m buying a book (as that always fixes it!) and she said this one 😁 so of course I did. 13mo
TrishB @BarbaraBB 😢 not there yet! I‘ll be ready, sort of. 13mo
BarbaraBB It‘s kind of beautiful ❤️ 13mo

It‘s my daughters b.day today- she has several birthday rules. You must always start a birthday gift book on your birthday (left side), cake and Buck‘s Fizz for breakfast.
As I‘ve taken the day off too, I have had said treats and on my second book. It‘s felt like my birthday too 😁

squirrelbrain I‘ve read all about the Finkelstein book in the press - sounds fascinating.💔 2y
Cinfhen Tagged book sounds awesome !!! And happiest birthdays to C xxxxx 2y
Cinfhen What number bday is this? I feel like I remember when she turned 17 🤪 2y

#motherdaughterread
I‘ve literally just started the book I brought today….daughter reading Poppy War. We have booked to go and see Kuang talk in May.

thewallflower0707 The Poppy War is a heavy emotional roller coaster, so jealous you are going to meet Kuang! 2y
batsy That's cool about the Kuang talk! That should be interesting. 2y
Cathythoughts Enjoy your day ❤️ 2y
TrishB @thewallflower0707 @batsy I‘m really looking forward to it. I can‘t believe her output so far and she‘s so young! (Says the old woman over here). 2y
TrishB @Cathythoughts thank you 😘 2y
