There are a few really great quotes in this read… loved that it‘s a different type of read and yet there are portions of the book that are relatable to other books … while I like this for many reasons I really hated the ending … I mean really I need to know what‘s next … so I have to order the next book

One of my New Year‘s resolutions is to do more of this 📚🤪

I have so many tbr books I need authors to stop writing for a while so I can catch up… even though I‘ve read so many books this year my tbr doesn‘t change… yes I know this is a good thing but I‘m trying to get the numbers down but it just doesn‘t happen smh

Okay I liked the first book in this series, this one I really didn‘t, with all that happened to the main character it was a little over the top. I tried, I really tried to get to “like” but I just couldn‘t. I know this is a popular series and I‘m trying to figure out why. the abuse is over the top and there should be some type of goal…if he can‘t get to where he needs to go. I think my biggest issue is, if he‘s an assassin how is he always caught?

I don‘t know where the year has gone but I have doubled my reading goal since April … next year I‘ll have to up the goal to 150 or 200

This was a really good read with unexpected twist and turns really enjoyed reading this and look forward to other books by this author

I liked this didn‘t love it but it was a good read … didn‘t like some of the teen characters aspects in the story…

Received my box today #littlechristmasswap #LCS @bookish_wookish @Deblovestoread excited 😊

Not really sure what I read except for the descriptive process of unnecessary items … yes your driving a car and you have a cell phone but do we need make,model, or interior/ exterior description that last a few pages or a page … some of the book was good … maybe because I‘m not used to the writing style I may give it another try at a later date or just let it go sad I really wanted to like it

Okay this is why I try to read a series when all the books are out … from beginning to end this takes you through it and still delivers a punch… that ending though… this is one of the best I‘ve read in a while … and now I have to wait for the final book

@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks as you can see yes I love it and with slight changes in the books you‘ve read it gives you different shelves 😊📚

Just received my box from Litjoy loving the cover of the tagged book beautiful 😊… Christmas presents to self is important too 🎁

Received my book outlet box so excited to start reading these great finds all under $5.00 📚😊… of course this makes my tbr ridiculous… like it wasn‘t before these 🤣🤣🤣📚📚📚📚📚📚

Finished and sent #littlechristmasswap #LCS @bookish_wookish so excited to see my swap open it love giving 📚😊

Once again Nora Roberts hits every aspect of a great beginning… all the spooky and atmospheric representations of a haunting with aspects of time travel, mirror/mirror, and questionable deaths… I am now immediately reading “The Mirror” I‘m happy I waited… but wish all the books were out because the way this ended I would have cried it such a great way to start the next book

This is a sad story but a heartfelt one … from the beginning you realize this is a special story about Alzheimer‘s/dementia (?)… I really love how Beckman presents different mental health issue in his books loved it … even though it‘s a sad book

I love Fredrik Backman‘s writing in general but I really loved this … it‘s not that we don‘t like people we just like solitude better … no arguing, disturbances, or messes … this is hilarious and engaging and it provides insight into those introverts that are perfectly happy with the way they are

This is why I will read anything by Fredrik Backman… his in my top 5 favorite authors… but this is classic Backman

These books are so cute I really liked this holiday read

We enter a story about a boy and leave the story when the boy becomes an assassin and yet the end brings out all the sadness because of a dog … was the story good yes it has good moments and some great … will I read the next book yes yes I will … I can‘t say this was a perfect read because violence, but it was a really good start to a trilogy

This book was a great representation of evil/repressed/depressed consciousness for the characters (or am I off) … the characters are struggling with their environment and life in general, but “the shadow” in psychology has been represented as the negative aspects of consciousness… therefore this aspect of the shadow was represented beautifully… Even though this is dark it delivers… I loved it

This is what I was looking for just as short as the others but has substance and a great conclusion… liked the characters and story was what I was looking for in these short stories

Not really sure about these short stories put out for Christmas it was good just to short maybe one more chapter would have need beneficial.. I‘m not really a person who gives negative feedback back but I need more to the story… liked it but with more it would have been a little better

Another short story the characters, and storyline was likable but it was really short as the two prior reads for the season‘s specials I have two more short stories in this series … this will get me to read other books by this author

This is just a short story … since it is it lacks the length needed to ascertain a background on the characters… but it is a good story for its length just wanted more of it

How do we learn to accept and grow through emersion into other cultural beliefs and traditions… this book presents a view on how to not only accept but honor others perspectives… In this book we see Isabella learning not only about the dragons she‘s so passionate about but the peoples and individuals that care for them … this second book was a journey into how society should work for the betterment of all rather then for political reasons…

I know some places had books on “sale” but did they really I mean I would have to go to the bookstore to find out but I did get in on the book sale from book outlet I want to go to B&N but I don‘t like crowds … Amazon had some good sales … see why I have over 1500 books now …. I hope we don‘t move for a while the struggle is real 🙌🏽📚

This book gives you something to think about and is completely different from anything I‘ve read in the past … Alon is an islander that protects people from the Diwata … who or what that is is explained during an intrusion from a crew of Hollywoods actors and tv crew … as with all of Rin Chupeco‘s writings this is top of the list in originality … I love this read and know that any book by this author is a must read

This is a short story and while I love Ali Hazelwood it didn‘t hit for me… I liked it but I usually love her books this was okay I just didn‘t love it like I usually do… and I know it may be because it‘s short and in a similar collection of short stories with other authors

An easy read . Fate steps in to bring a pregnant mom running from her deceased husbands grasping parents and a grieving brother together to create a family with love out of devastation… A good read for this time of year

Two short stories that are enjoyable and interesting… the first is a fun reacquainting of old high school loves… the second is a wish come true for twins Zeke and Zach cute and adorable ☺️

Fredrik Backman pulls all the feels from you …. Within a story that consist of a beautiful relationship between grandmother and granddaughter… this will have you wanting to fight for the main child character, engaged in the story, laughing at some of the antics, and crying all within the covers of this read. Loved every word and this author is in my top 5 loved authors list

With this book I now have 1500 books in my library… but I have two more I added and only 200-300 of those I haven‘t read 🙌🏽📚📚📚 it‘s not a problem really it‘s not 👀😜🤣🤣🤣

Enjoyed this read, it was enjoyable, original, and had great characters. An overall good read

Had to share so true 🤣

Yes join the darkside on this thanksgiving and be thankful… seriously Happy Thanksgiving to all my Litsy friends 🥰🦃🍁

I‘m trying to decide what I‘m feeling and if I‘ll get the next book in the series… this was completely different and I can‘t stop thinking about it and what will happen next… so many questions remain and how is this story going to continue… guess I answered my questions I will get the next book and see for myself … can‘t wait 😜

Have you ever… struggled to read a book … not because it was bad, your not in a reading slump, or don‘t have time… you find the book fascinating but you just don‘t read for a few days even though you really like the book 😞 … I really am enjoying this but for whatever reason reading is a struggle… my mom has been gone for 5yrs and I‘m still struggling

Well I need to read the second book to decide if I like this or love it … that ending though… good characters… good read

So it looks like this is the first book in a new series (?) … I enjoyed the adventures the mfc became immersed in and how they were resolved… good read

So when you‘ve had a good nights sleep, wake up, and it‘s raining outside… you start reading and the next thing you know you start to get sleepy but you really want to keep reading … what do you do …. Asking for a friend 👀📖

This may p*** people off so here I go… the only characters I really liked and kept me interested was bridge 4 specifically Kaladin and Syl… the rest I read to get back to bridge 4 …the writing was elaborated to an extent that was not needed but is understandable.. I am a huge fan of Steven Erikson and was hoping I would feel the same way about Brandon Sanderson‘s books :( I don‘t but because the writing is okay and I loved bridge 4 I‘ll read more

Back home and I made it to pg 709 so I‘m over the hump but still have plenty of pages left 👀🙌🏽

I made it to this unique bookstore before it closed today and bought these two book and bookmark… I can‘t wait to read it 😊📖

So I picked these two up yesterday and thought I posted it but haven‘t so I bought these two at a (kind of k-mart) bi-mart market (it‘s owned by employees not a corporation) cool huh 😊📚

Some wish they had a special gift … this book brings that wish into focus … talking to animals is one of the gifts and it is amazing how the author represents this aspect of the mmc … I love this read and look forward to reading more by this author

We also went to Pegasus Books and picked up these two book … I was looking at the grey wolf before and added it to crow talk because why not 🙌🏽🤗📚

So my hubby had to drive to Bend, OR. For work and I tagged along… so he took me to two book stores and this was Dudley‘s Bookshop … so cute and I found the book I wanted and a few more 🤣📚

1) spots … no strips please
2) unfortunately no but I just turned some in does that count

Thank you @Sace for the tag and @TheSpineView for the #Two4Tuesday … if you haven‘t played join in the fun since I‘ve tagged you

I really want to know what the “beast” looks like I really do … I really enjoyed this read and I‘m so happy I have the next book in the series… but I‘m away from home so I‘ll still have to wait until I get home but I do have it :)
