I could not put this book down. I thought I was so smart and figured out everything so early on...and then I read the last page 🤯 This was definitely a fun twisty thriller.

This book was like a warm hug from a best friend that understands you the most 🤗. It was just what I needed to restore my faith in humanity and is one of the best books that I have read all year ❤️

LiteraryinPA What a review! I have been excited to read this one but now I'm even MORE excited! 4y
Nevertoobusyforbooks @LiteraryinLititz Yay! I hope you love it as much as I did! 4y

I read two past Reese‘s Book Club picks this week and wasn‘t really impressed. They were good but not great. I‘ve been trying to follow along with her book club but none of her recent picks have really caught my attention.

KristiAhlers I‘ve sadly actually stopped automatically picking her books up. Reason being those two titles here. Sad as I‘ve enjoyed so many of her choices in the past. 5y
Copwithabook I have seen quite a few not like this book. I took it off my TBR 5y

I could definitely feel Lydia Bird‘s grief while reading this book. My heart ached for her and I thought her ability to visit a life where she never lost her fiancée was much more of a curse than a gift. I‘ve never experienced this kind of loss but I imagine it would make reality even harder to bear. A heavier read than expected but the ending left me hopeful. 4⭐️

I decided to wait until my husband got back from a trip to start reading this book and I‘m glad that I did because it creeped me out. I would definitely recommend The Sun Down Motel but maybe don‘t read it alone or at night 👻

It seems like most people loved this book but I‘m struggling with it. I bought it because I loved Nothing to See Here so I thought I‘d try another book by the author. I‘m a little over half way through and finding it hard to care about what happens to these characters. They‘re not giving me the same warmth (pardon the pun) as the fire children did in NTSH.

LiteraryinPA Hmm... so I am one of the Littens who really liked this one, but I can see what you mean about the warmth. This one and Perfect Little World focused more on the quirkiness in the families than a loving connection, but I still loved them. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 5y

Sally Rooney really knows how to capture the uncertainty of youth. The story follows Francis, a 21 year old poet who tries to navigate life and balance the complicated relationships she has with her best friend, her married boyfriend, and her alcoholic father. It made me glad that I am no longer in my 20s. Although the older adults didn‘t really seem to have a clue about what they were doing either 😬

Suet624 I'm SO glad I'm not in my 20's too. And I'll admit, being older I don't have much of a clue either. :) 5y

Topics of Conversation | Miranda Popkey

I liked this book when I started it. The writing style was a little difficult to get into but the conversations between these women made me want to push through the book. I really appreciated that the dialogue was so brutally honest and raw. I would finish a chapter and think about it for the rest of the day. However, I was ready for it to be over about halfway through...and it‘s not a very long book. I liked it but wouldn‘t recommend it.

Starting this one today. It‘s been sitting in my TBR pile for a while but I recently saw that Sarah Michelle Gellar is staring in a limited series adaptation of this book! I am a major Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan and I will watch anything with her in it. And of course I have to read the book before I see the show 🤓

MissAimz_55 Ooooo that‘s awesome! This too has been sitting in my tbr for a while 5y
GloVerdino I just bought this cause I heard Sarah Michelle Geller is gonna be in the adaptation! Trying to move it up to the top of my list! 5y
monalyisha Oh, hi. We‘re both currently reading Small Fry & Christina Lauren. And I‘m also a *huge* Buffy fan. Are we the same person? 5y

I really enjoyed this book. It was a light and funny fast read. This is the second book in the Class Mom series and I liked it just as much as the first. Although it does make me nervous about my own kids entering elementary school. Is the PTA really this scary???

TEArificbooks I haven‘t read the books but I am on the PTA board and let me tell you it can get bad. It really depends on the women you work with just like at the office. There is almost always one mom every one hates usually the president cause they go on a power trip. The mommy wars seen in Big Little Lies are a real thing - like scheduling a counter party to mess with a little girls birthday just to piss off the mom. 5y
Nevertoobusyforbooks @mdm139 Ugh that‘s what I was afraid of. I have 3 years until my oldest starts kindergarten so I have some time to mentally prepare myself 😬 5y

What did I just read?!? This book was so good! I can usually predict or have a good idea about what is going to happen at the end of a thriller but this one kept me guessing until the very last page. Wow 🤯

I devoured this book on a flight to San Diego. 4/5 ⭐️. Would have given it a perfect rating but the ending felt a little disjointed to me. I found myself really relating to Annika, especially the desire to hide under the covers with a book when faced with social situations 😬.

It took me a while to really get into this book. However, I stuck with it because of all the glowing reviews and I‘m so glad I did. Chloe is trying to live life to its fullest while dealing with crippling chronic pain and Red is trying to rebuild his life after a previous abusive relationship broke him down. Although these are difficult topics this book left me feeling a lot of joy. I would definitely recommend!

I had this book sitting on my TBR shelf for a while due to mixed reviews. I finally decided to read it and now find that I am having mixed feeling about this book. I‘m not sure if I liked it 🤷‍♀️. It was a quick read and I kept finding myself drawn into the story of these two people and their ever evolving relationship. But the ending was so abrupt and left me feeling kind of empty.

"But she was ne a dragon ne a princess. She was a phoenix."

Oh Gentry, you have quickly become one of my favorite fictional characters. This book was amazing. After reading the synopsis, I wasn‘t sure if I could get into the story but I decided to take a chance since I loved "All The Ugly and Wonderful Things.” I‘m so glad I did because this is one of the best books that I have read all year. I would highly recommend it!
