"I don‘t remember giving birth...I don‘t remember…anything."

A secret baby romance where the mom is clueless?? I was totally ready for a train wreck but IT WAS AMAZING!!!

Sosie Frost seriously knocked it out of the park! I've always been a fan, but this is her BEST yet.

I got it on Kindle Unlimited....But I'd pay full cover price - no lie! ???????

(Not sure what's up w/ the cover bc it doesn't match the story...)

🌟🌟🌟/5

It was ok & following the plot of the Sandra Bullock movie was fun. H/h were good (if not very deep) and I enjoyed the secondary characters. But I did a TON of scanning bc the middle dragged & I even skipped the epilogue. If you love historical romance you'll probably enjoy this. If it is something you only read once in a while I would recommend skipping it.

#booktober #supernaturalbeings

Lucifer & Amenadiel...le sigh...The show is based on the comics (which I've not read) and OMG is it good! Lucy and Amenadiel are brothers trying to navigate humanity & LA.

Probably my favorite thing on the show is hearing Lucifer call Chloe's ex-husband "Detective Douche." Best part of every show ?

hlgreenfield I actually only started to watch this show cos of my huge crush on Tom Ellis and at first I wasn't enjoying it cos it was just another procedural but boy did the show up it's game! I am loving it now and they've really made me love and feel for these characters! 8y

Frankenstein: ; Or, The Modern Prometheus | Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley

#madscientist #octphotochallenge

Penny Dreadful was an awesome series and I'm sad to see it ended. The actor who played Victor did an amazing job at being a tortured soul!

"There is, uh . . . a line from Shelley that haunts me."
- Victor Frankenstein, Penny Dreadful

sparrowssavvy It broke my heart that Penny Dreadful ended although I felt the third season was a letdown. The first two seasons are, in my opinion, some of the best seasons of tv ever. 8y
DiruVamp I miss that show so much!! I agree @sparrowssavvy the third season was not nearly as good but wow those first two seasons were absolutely wonderful! 8y
sparrowssavvy @DiruVamp I need to buy those first two seasons and just rewatch them again and again. I really keep hoping they will just redo the final season. It was such a letdown. I was literally raging about it for a week! 8y
See All 17 Comments
GeekyGirlBooks @sparrowssavvy @DiruVamp I agree about season 3. Wish they'd been given long enough seasons to really develop character arcs 8y
v_cuev This series made me want to go back and read so many classics. So sad it's over. (SIGH) 8y
sparrowssavvy @GeekyGirlBooks @DiruVamp It seems to me that halfway through the third season they got cancelled and they kind of half-assed the ending then. It just seemed odd that they were introducing new characters still, and the ending didn't meet any of the build up or former set up. 8y
DiruVamp @sparrowssavvy @GeekyGirlBooks I agree wholeheartedly. About halfway through that final season every storyline quickly just sort of ended. At the end of the last episode I was like "what happened?" 8y
Bookgirl @DiruVamp @sparrowssavvy @GeekyGirlBooks agree with the exception of John Clare in season 3 - there were a few episodes he featured prominently in and I was completely mesmerized by his development and backstory. I want a spin off about him! 8y
sparrowssavvy @Bookgirl I agree! He came to the forefront for sure. The episode solely based on Vanessa was the best one of the season. I just wanted so much more! 8y
sparrowssavvy @DiruVamp I completely agree! The show creator said that they intended it to end at the end of season three, but considering how well written and thought out the rest of the series was, that doesn't sound right to me. I could have accepted its demise if it had been of the same caliber as the rest of the show! 8y
MonikaS I love this show! I recently finished a binge watch of the second season. Can't wait to see the last season! 8y
DiruVamp @Bookgirl I LOVE John Clare!! Not only is he one of my favorite characters in the series he is one of my all time favorite characters in any show ever! 8y
Bookgirl @DiruVamp same here. I just binged the 2nd and 3rd seasons in September and kept posting about it on Litsy as I was so into it and so in love with his character and SO upset that it's over!!!! @sparrowssavvy Seriously why introduce Catriona or whatever her name was and even Dr Seward, who was awesome. Or Dr Jekyll? It was weird to bring them all in for no reason 8y
Bookgirl @DiruVamp @sparrowssavvy I guess I'm still obsessing over it a little if I'm honest...I made my ringtone the PD theme song! I will be binge watching the whole series again sooner rather than later. 8y
DiruVamp @Bookgirl @sparrowssavvy I had to force myself to only watch 2 episodes at a time of season 3 because I didn't want it to end LOL I will definitely be binge watching again soon! 8y
sparrowssavvy @Bookgirl Love it!! I bought the soundtrack and can't get enough of it! I also bought the art book. I am now coveting the tarot cards. @DiruVamp haha! I get that! I want to rewatch it, but I don't know if I want to rewatch season three yet, hurts too much haha! 8y

I finished the whole book in one sitting and loved every word! This is the last book of a 3 part series and it was just perfect!

The characters are fun and fully fleshed out. The plot was good and the pacing was on point! I highly recommend this book (and the 1st two)!

Word of warning - I think these books are tagged YA bc the H/h are in high school, but they are more New Adult with fairly explicit sex.

MeganAnn Loved the first two! I'm saving this one for @DeweysReadathon on Saturday. 8y

Coffee! STAT! I have an enormous book hangover 😷

🌟🌟🌟🌟/5 Stars

Honor was amazing. Everything I hoped for & much, much more. I've waited for Nassir's HEA since book 1 of the series. He's not a good person and I LOVE him for all of his slick evilness!

BUT...Honor both is & isn't a stand alone. It seems like a middle book, but it isn't.

If you love The Point u'll be sooo happy. If u haven't read books 1-3, start with Better When He's Bad.

ParagraphsandPetticoats Got the first book on my tbr shelf and looking forward to it thanks! Are they cliffhangers? 8y
GeekyGirlBooks @ParagraphsandPetticoats No each is a stand alone HEA, but they build on each other. From what I've read Honor was a labor of love so it has backstory built from the others. You can read it stand alone but it will be more satisfying if read in order. 😄 8y

Ugh. That's all I got about the mom in this book. I read this almost 20yrs ago (😳) and it has stayed with me as one of my all-time favorite books. So much resonated. If you haven't read it, stack it! You won't be sorry!

JennyWren Oh I emember getting this one from the library when I was a teenager and it's one of those books I can't forget either :) 8y
Octoberwoman I loved this one! 8y

LauraBrook I don't know, it's hard to beat Scrappy Doo... 8y

I think I'm going to cry too. On Writing isn't just about King learning writing, it's sorta a love story too. 💗

Tanner I loved this book! It almost made me cry too. 8y

#OctPhotoChallenge #90stoys @katedfisher @LibrarianRyan

Was too old for toys in the 90s but I wanted to play today's challenge! I read Bridget Jones when it came out in '99. Totally claiming it as my 90s "toy" ?

merelybookish Read this book and loved it so much when it came out. I have wondered if it would stand up to a re-reading or if better left as a happy 90s memory. 8y
GeekyGirlBooks @merelybookish I've wondered too! I haven't seen the new movie bc the same thought. I loved it bc it hit me at the right time in my life...3 kids and hella bills later I'm not sure if it may be bittersweet 8y
GeekyGirlBooks **too bittersweet 8y

merelybookish Exactly! 8y
LeeRHarry Saw the movie last night and it made me laugh - Emma Thompson was my fave, just love her! 😊 8y
Octoberwoman I loved it and the sequel. But when I read the third book recently I struggled with it. I felt like I had matured since the first two books while Bridget had not. 8y
Octoberwoman However, I saw the new movie last week and loved it, I haven't laughed that so much at a movie in awhile. I'm talking tears from laughing so much! 8y
GeekyGirlBooks @Octoberwoman I'll catch the movie then! I'm always on the lookout to laugh 😄 8y

So...1/4 in and I'm paying bills instead. What does that tell u?

I tried hard to like it. I really did. But there seems to be a windowless iron door between myself and the characters. Narration is pretty much "Detached Observer" and its painful people!!

Pain. Dead. GAH!

So the glorious full review I'd planned is dead. Beaten with the same heavy cudgel Ben Fountain is using to drive his social commentary home in this book. ?
