I'm not exactly sure how to rate this book. I wasn't in love with the story but it feels too relevant to rate as so so. The political climate described in this book felt eerily similar to America's current political climate. I would recommend reading this to anyone concerned with the direction that the US is heading.

I had fun reading this book. I love the idea of the library and the magical world that exist in it. It was fast paced and kept me turning pages. I do wish that the author had spent a little more time on developing the characters. Even so, I found this book very enjoyable and am planning on reading the rest of the series.

I am beyond grateful to @Karen for my awesome #cupidgoespostal gifts! I'm really excited to read both of the books. The socks are adorable and the bookmark is gorgeous. You've made my day!

I'm up and ready to open my #cupidgoespostal gifts. Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!

I'll be spending my Friday night with a couple books, a cup of chai, a plate of ginger snaps, and a few squares of chocolate for later. Good times.

I checked my mail while I was out walking my dogs this evening and my #cupidgoespostal package was waiting for me! Thank you so much @Karen! I can hardly wait until February 14 to open it!

I just finished wrapping my #cupidgoespostal gifts. They'll be going in the mail tomorrow. Thanks again, @BookishMarginalia for organizing this. It's been a lot of fun so far.

I loved this book! Once I started reading it I had a hard time putting it down. I switched back and forth between reading and listening. The narration was very well done. I did feel like the ending was a little abrupt, but it was still a great winter read.

I've read this book a few times on my Kindle. I loved it so much that I decided I needed a physical copy.

I enjoyed reading this book very much. The first third if it reads like an autobiography. The last two thirds focuses on politics. It definitely made me more aware of social and economic issues that I hadn't given a lot of thought to before.

In this chapter we saw the promise that Hermione will probably be a very good student and we also saw the promise that Professor Snape will probably be making a lot of problems for Harry.

I thought that since we read #chapter7 #thesortinghat today I would share a picture of my daughter being sorted. #hpchapteraday

#hpchapteraday chapter 5
Today's theme is being a stranger. Not only does Harry not fit in to the muggle world, the wizarding world is a stranger to him. He is an important figure in wizarding history but he knows almost nothing about it. At this point in the story Harry must feel like a stranger no matter where he goes.

This book had a nice story. It started off strong but became a little slow in the middle. I liked it but didn't love it. 3.5/ ⭐

I just finished chapter 4 and today's theme is generosity. Hagrid is the first person who has shown Harry any generosity. He brings Harry his first real birthday present, fixes starving Harry food, and gives Harry valuable information about himself and his family.

This is a collection of heartbreaking poetry written by a person who has had a difficult life. By the time I finished the book I felt like Daley- Ward had told me the storey of her life. Overall, I would say that it is a beautiful read that broke my heart with each poem.

"I believe in ghosts. They're the ones who haunt us, the ones who left us behind. Many times in my life I have felt them around me, observing, witnessing, when no one in the living world knew or cared what happened."
I just started reading Orphan Train and I'm already loving it.

It seems like no matter how old I get or how many times I have read them I'm always happy to read the Harry Potter books again.

I'm so happy to be starting #hpchapteraday

Homegoing is one of the best debute novels that I have read in a very long time. My heart broke with every chapter. I give it 5 stars.

I'm only one chapter in but I'm already hooked. This is already looking like it may be one of the better books that I have read in a while. It's a good thing I don't have to work tomorrow because this may turn into an all nighter.😁😁😁

This is my first post on here. It's Christmas Eve and I'm spending a cozy evening at home, drinking wine and starting a new book. I've been meaning to read this one for a while now and I'm hoping to enjoy it. Happy Holidays!
