Holy moly was this book a total mind #%^*.

So much jumping around I had to back through several pages and re-read passages just to make sure I was following correctly. But oh, was it all worth it. Loved this book so much 🥰🥰

tessavi One of my favorites from last year! 5y

Not a great book to be reading right before bed. My head is exploding trying to figure out what I just read.

Anyone else feel the same way?

Soooo we adopted a new fur baby and she is the absolute sweetest thing 😻.

But I have a question for you all. Have you ever got done with a series that just drained you emotionally and it was hard to start another book I tip you‘ve had time to....cope?

I finished reading the Throne of Glass series almost 2 months ago and I‘m finding it hard to pick up a new book now. 😂😂 That series wrecked me 🤣🤣

1) I have a bit of a problem choosing just one #sorrynotsorry 😂🤣😂🤣
2) Only in the 3 bedrooms
3) Crafting or reading
4) not too fond of tall bridges, snakes, or spiders
5) Maybe about 50/50. And I have the one where my teeth are falling out about twice a year and it creeps me out 😬😵

THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH FOR ALL MY GOODIES! I just got the box yesterday (military shipping is a nightmare) and opened it up today the M&M‘s are already gone because I was craving some chocolate 😂 I LOVE the books, seriously I need to learn how to crochet now because that little Sherlock Holmes on the front needs to be mine! Thank you for taking the time to make my water bottle snuggy and for everything. #makerswap @LibrarianRyan

TheRomantiCate Omg! So cute!! I‘ve had the Literary Yarns on my Amazon wish list for ages, but I don‘t know the first thing about crochet ☺️ 7y
MaleficentBookDragon Great! I was hoping you‘d like it. I have the Literary Yarns book but I‘m not good enough to make Sherlock🕵️‍♀️ 😁 7y

2. Tris from The Divergent Series, because she‘s a badass
3. From the Marvel movies it has to be a tie between Black Widow and Hawkeye because they have no super powers or enhancements, just skill
4. Keeping with the Marvel theme, Loki
5. Honestly I‘ll probably get crap for this but, Jace from The Mortal Instruments he‘s just so arrogant

Helen Russell is fresh, funny, and honest in her review of the happiest country on Earth. I loved the month to month review of her adventures in trying to figure out the Danish way of living and what makes the Danes just so darn happy all the time. I left the book feeling warm and fuzzy inside and really wanting to visit Denmark as soon as the bank account allows 😊❤️

AmyG Now I want to know what makes them so happy, too. 😀 (edited) 7y

The Last Star | Rick Yancey

Panpan

Horrible! The only reason I didn‘t bail on this book was because it was the last in the series and wanted to know how it ended. I couldn‘t stand how the author would just switch from 2nd and third person writing viewpoints throughout the book, it drove me nuts. The whole series was very confusing and hard to follow. I really think the way he wrote it was more dedicated to getting a movie deal than just having a good book. Very disappointed 😔
