Wishes become curses in this gorgeously written story of a girl whose deal with the devil will haunt her forever. A longing to be free and live a life she chooses, becomes a life no one will remember. Magical, haunting and heartbreaking, Addie was easy to root for, and though it was perhaps a little long.... I loved snuggling up with this novel and being lost in its pages. Just perfect for the season.... #slumpbuster

KarenUK (One small niggle.... there is a particular word that is repeated way too often in this book... I won‘t mention it, in case you don‘t notice it!) 4y
Darthdad I loved this book. A great reminder of all the small ways that you affect those around you even if it appears that no one notices or remember 4y
BarbaraBB Now I‘m super curious to know that word... 4y

KarenUK @barbarabb I‘ll post it in a spoiler if you want to see it! 4y
KarenUK Palimpsest 4y
BarbaraBB Wow... I don‘t even know that word. So I would definitely notice it when it appears more than once! Now I‘m off to Google the word 🤦🏻‍♀️ 4y

I loved this. I enjoyed the lyrical writing and the story made me want to cook and to eat. Finished it while gardening and immediately downloaded the sequel. I hope it‘s as good. Also started The House We Grew Up In yesterday and both books have a character named Rory. I‘m enjoying that one too. #audiogardening #slumpbuster

Sace Wow this sounds good! 4y
Prairiegirl_reading @Sace I started yesterday and finished this morning. I really enjoyed it. 😄 4y
Allylu I read this and liked it very much. There‘s a sequel? I didn‘t know that. 4y

Prairiegirl_reading @Allylu yes! It is called the lost art of mixing, some of the same characters and some new. I just finished it yesterday. I couldn‘t help myself! 4y

#JulyWrapUp

Had a bit of a reading slump this month, but a re-read of the tagged book for a bookclub ended up being the perfect #slumpbuster !

I read a couple of fantastic cookbooks, and also really liked The Girl on the Page, a gift from a lovely Litten...

Favorite new-to-me fiction read was the 5⭐️ ‘The Nickel Boys‘ by Colson Whitehead.... I‘m looking forward to discussing it at the B&N bookclub I‘ll be hosting on August 13th....📚💕

Cathythoughts This doesn‘t look like a reading slump 🤔📚📚📚Well done !! I must get a copy of The Chain ! I‘m in need of a decent thriller 👍🏻♥️ 5y
KarenUK @cathythoughts The Chain is fun and a really well done thriller.... very pacy, edge of your seat stuff. 👍 5y
britt_brooke Looks like a great month still! What did you think about Educated? I think I‘m one of the few that didn‘t love it. 5y

KarenUK @britt_brooke I‘m with you on this one.... did not love it, and although I think her achievements are great, didn‘t think the book was that special... 5y
britt_brooke @KarenUK Completely agree. 5y
CarolynM The Girl on the Page was an interesting one. I liked a lot of it, but some of it made me cringe! 5y
KarenUK @CarolynM I kept thinking I shouldn‘t be liking this as much as I am! 5y

I may be in a slump that prevents me from physically reading a book, but listening to Jennifer Lewis on audio? I could do this all day! #slumpbuster
