I didn't want this book to be over. I loved it so, so much. Eleanor is so quirky, yet so lovable. ❤️ I also enjoyed my reading partner, pictured here (sort of). ❤️

LOVED the first book SO, SO MUCH. And look at that lil comment from NK Jemisin! I mean... A) she says 'snarky', which is SO me AND B) she's NK Jemisin. 🤷

There were some things I really liked about this book. It was an easy read and had a lot of twists, which made it nice to get absorbed in. I liked the character of Nickie. Not sure how to put my finger on it, I just didn't like it as much as I wanted to. 🤷

"The Holocaust happened not because of one person, but because of many people believing in an ideology promoted by a charismatic man at the right time and place, and millions of people colluding. History is not singular. Events do not happen in a vacuum."

"The people never mentioned in history books still made history."

Sometimes you spend hours (?!?!) making a list of all your TBR books and then spend another 30" looking for ANY of them on OverDrive.

Well... Guess I'll just pick a random for my first read of 2019.
Hoping it's a good one!

WOW. Beautifully written. Love #novelsinverse and Melanie Crowder did such a wonderful job really getting into the story. It felt so real. I was hopeless and angry right along with Clara.

"That is all.
So simple.
The truth often is."'

"History is not just facts and events. History is also a pain in the heart and we repeat history until we are able to make another's pain in the heart our own."

Wow.

The atmosphere of the place soothed her automatically; the rich lantern lights, the sheer scent of paper and leather, and the fact that everywhere she looked, there were books, books, beautiful books.

Thank you so immensely, @ReadingsByTheC !!

From the 8th grade read-aloud this year. My fav #1stline ever: "There was a hand in the darkness, and it held a knife."

A student insisted that I borrow his copy of Cassandra Clare's Lady Midnight. I really enjoyed her Mortal Instrument series.

"I have taken liberties. Fewer liberties than you might imagine, but liberties nonetheless."

Tmw you're pretty sure you've read the book, but buy it @ #hpb just in case.

At a fav spot: Half Price Books! I need a new book! What to get... What to get..
