with college football done for the day, and after my brief Hamilton dance party, I've turned on Gilmore Girls as some background noise for my continuing #readathon!
time for a #readathon break to amuse this little guy after three chapters of this wonderfully written, intriguing book
"I talk to you as I talk to my own soul"
(throwin' in some naked Sam Heughan here to sex up my #readathon feed ??)
first selections for #readathon (that's my trusty Nook Rufus in the red)...
I really enjoyed this book and found myself wishing for more when it ended. I did not see the two big reveals that come in the last third of the book coming, but I loved them. My only complaint: there was a plethora of comma splices throughout the book. One of my pet grammar peeves!
"In this life we love who we love. There were some stories in which facts were very nearly irrelevant." Plus my #bookmark for this book: the 16/17 season bookmark from Inprint. #booktober
