I'm excited to be able to participate in #HyggeHourReadathon ! I'm not usually home on Sunday nights. I'm audio puzzling and listening to Hester, which I'm really enjoying.

#LiteraryCrew I listened to the first two hours and this isn‘t really holding my interest. There are plenty of other books out there and I‘ve decided it‘s time to #HailTheBail!

Librarybelle Thanks for trying! 3d
CatLass007 @Librarybelle I really wanted to like this but I guess it wasn‘t meant to be. Please tag me when the questions go up because I‘d really like to see what others think of it. 3d
Librarybelle Will do! 3d

Sargar114 It‘s definitely a slow start, I also read at the end of the day, but I find myself falling asleep reading. 19h
CatLass007 @Sargar114 I tried listening to the The Martian Chronicles and fell asleep four different times throughout the day. When I tried listening to this I also fell asleep. Then I started listening to Wool and I was riveted. I‘m generally a mood reader and the first two books I tried the other day were just too slow for me. 19h

I‘ve struggled to get into a few audio books since I finished my last, probably because I just haven‘t had enough consecutive listening time. This one sucked me right in - I‘m ahead of myself for #literarycrew maybe that will be my vibe for 2025? 🤣🤣

Book 35 of 2024: This was pick 3 for #CBBC. I was not a fan of this book. Although, I enjoyed the plot and suspense leading up to the climax of “whodunit“ i was not a fan of the romance with a ghost nor the excess detail (in my opinion) of surroundings. Not a series I will continue by choice. 🌟🌟 🌟/5

BethM I didn‘t love this one. 1mo

I feel like the luckiest recipient of the #modernwitchswap! Truly witchy!! I absolutely love the scarf (beautiful!!), and the spices and tea. I‘m sniffing everything and cannot wait to use them. And the books are perfect!!! Thank you @TEArificbooks I can tell so much care and love went into this. And the homemade card! That made my day!!

TheBookHippie Wow -what a beautiful package!!! 3mo
TEArificbooks Glad you like it. I enjoyed shopping for you. We have similar tests in books. 3mo

Amidst the historic play-by-play, Roach takes the time to really focus on 6 specific women of the trials: How did they each come to be living in Salem, 1692 (indisputably a WRONG place & WRONG time)? What fears, hopes, misunderstandings could‘ve led innocent women to confess? What traumas & biases, left to fester, could have brought about such hysteria?

This book doesn‘t pretend to have all the answers. But it‘s important to ask the questions.

The Lesser Dead is about a group of vampires living in the NYC underground in the late 1970s. It‘s the first time I‘ve really been sucked into a story about vampires (other than Bunnicula)

A Season with the Witch is a nonfiction work by a reporter who stayed in Salem with his family for the month of October. It‘s such a historic, complex, and horribly cheesy place. Visiting Salem is now near the top of my bucket list!

Emilymdxn A season with the witch sounds like something I NEED to read 🎃🎃🎃 4mo
PuddleJumper Ooo those both sound interesting 4mo
