Mehso-so

Just finished yet another average book for me. It just feels kinda bland to me. I feel like I expected some things to happen differently I guess

I know that their family is struggling and poor, but did her mom really just take the money without even asking first? I would be pissed if that happened to me.

BookishGirl06 Sorry if this post makes me seem rude or dumb or whatever. I get why the mom needed the money. It would just annoy me to find something missing 4y
Tianarose Totally. But also from a parents perspective, kids take stuff without asking all the time, so maybe payback. Lol. Still annoying 4y

Does anyone see an issue with that line ? It looks strange to me. My friend doesn‘t think so

MsMelissa It should be “...hear them arguing.” Not ‘heard.‘ 4y
BookishGirl06 @Book_Fiend_Melissa I agree too. It doesn‘t make sense the way it‘s written 4y
Karkar Yep sounds weird 4y

I absolutely loved this book. I just randomly picked it up and it turned out to be a new fave. I would definitely recommend this to anyone. It left me wanting more from the author but the book itself ended perfectly.

I absolutely love the library. It is probably my favorite place to be, besides a coffee shop.

When Ivy Emerson‘s family loses their house—complete with her beloved piano—the fear of what‘s to come seizes her like a bad case of stage fright. Only this isn‘t one of her single, terrifying performances. It‘s her life.
And it isn‘t pretty.

I love this because it just sounds so raw and real. Like ultimately heartwarming. Ivy loses everything, but maybe that was her destiny to gain something far greater...❤️

This book captures how real life works perfectly. One day it's all smiles and the next it's not. Not everything is as it seems. One of my favourites now
