I have to admit I was terrified to read this book! I heard about the long list of triggers & warnings. I was pleasantly surprised how much I loved this book! Yes, there were parts that made me grossed out & parts that made me question myself for liking this book, but the banter between the main characters & the spicy parts of the book made up for all the not so enjoyable parts! Highly recommend, but read those triggers before diving in!

I am going to attempt to do the 12 Challenge again this year! However, I am going to do it a bit different. I made a list of most of the physical books I own, but have not read yet and a list of my kindle books I have not read yet, then made a Google form for each that everyone can make their selections on!

Super excited to see how this goes and see which books I will be reading!

Forms and lists will be listed in comments!

Question for all the writers/authors/book lovers out there!

Today I was looking at my WordPress and realized I have 10 stories/books I have started to write, but hit a block on most/all of them and stopped. I really want to work on/finish these stories.

What do you do when you hit a block? Do you try to push through? Do you switch between stories?

Any advice/suggestions are welcome!

If you guessed that the #WickedWords Book/Movie this month was Grease 2, you were correct!

Have you ever read a book where the songs from the movie are turned into dialogue? The book follows the movie pretty closely, but there are moments added & some parts have been changed completely. I loved this book, it is on the top of my list for rereads. Plus Grease 2 is way better than Grease (yes, I said it and I stand by it!!)

Looking for recommendations: (possible spoilers for Only Murders in the Building)

I am a huge Only Murders in the Building fan, I love every second of the show. I especially love the friendship/relationship that Theo & Mabel have & was curious if there were books with these vibes? (One of the characters is deaf, but it isn‘t a barrier or main plot point.) I am leaning towards romance (it can be sweet or spicy). Any suggestions would be amazing!

I read it (my first time) and I have to say it was not as scary as I thought it would be. Then again I have watched the movie many times, so I knew main plot points of the book (and thanks to Joey on Friends for “accidentally” spoiling the ending).

I started a book club on Fable! I thought it would be fun to read books that could have been told around the campfire by the amazing Midnight Society (aka - on Are You Afraid of the Dark).

I am currently trying to make a list of books that would fit that criteria. They don‘t necessarily have to be YA, because I am sure the Midnight Society grew up to tell darker stories.

If you know of any or would like to join in, please let me know!

Thanks!

BONUS
- Read a book that was featured on FRIENDS (or relates to FRIENDS)
(I linked a list in the comments for ideas)

Good Luck & Happy Reading!

Which one would you pick & why?

I would pick either:

Camp Crystal Lake because I absolutely love those movies and I never went to summer camp as a kid, so I would like to experience it.

OR

The Overlook Hotel because if I pick the right day and get snowed in, think of how many books I would be able to read with no interruptions!!

AmyG The Overlook. And only because I love Stephen King. 13mo
vonnie862 The Overlook because I actually want to stay at the Stanley Hotel one day. I've only visited it and it's gorgeous. 13mo
Bookwormjillk The Overlook. I would just ignore all the ghosts and eat ice cream and read. 13mo
dabbe Knowing about Norman and his ... uhm .... proclivities, I could be prepared and not take the room right next door to the manager's lobby. Any place with possible “real“ paranormal, I don't think I could handle. 🎃 13mo
bthegood Camp Crystal Lake - I love camping 😂 13mo

BarkingMadRead This looks fun! Does the word need to be in the title? 14mo
AsYouWish @BarkingMadRead Nope, just anywhere in the book or it could be an image/picture on the cover. (Example - if there is a shadow of a person or something on the cover - it works!) I am very flexible, so used the words however you want! 💙💙💙💙 14mo

A Manor of Murder | Daniel Charles
post image

COMING SOON!

A Manor of Murder by Daniel Charles is a 1920's England murder mystery novel with plot twists that you won't see coming.
The main female character is very relatable, a little sassy, and very smart and driven!

UPDATE: If you saw my post yesterday I was trying to pick my next book. I narrowed it down to these two last night.

Cruel Prince has gotten the most votes from the people I have asked.

Sorority was not on the original post (because I had forgotten I had it, 🤦🏻‍♀️).

I think both are good options, just can‘t decide of course, lol!
