The Missing Girls of Alardyce House | 
bailedThis was my first #readyourkindle book and unfortunately I had to bail 5% in. Not an auspicious start. 😆 I think the author was trying to create a sympathetic main character, but she only succeeded in annoying me. She lost her parents and went to live with an aunt and uncle she barely knew. She immediately despises her aunt (and yes, she‘s not a peach), starts making eyes at a footman and bribes her maid for gossip. I‘m just not interested.
TheAromaofBooks I've been trying to read one number from the #readyourkindle challenge each month, and so far I'm 4/4 bails 😂 at least I'm getting them checked off!! 8mo
dabbe #hailthebail! #betterbooksahead 🤩🤩🤩 8mo
robinb @TheAromaofBooks That‘s what I‘m going with too! 5% is a bit soon, but when you know you know. 😂😂🤷🏻♀️ And TBH, my other three picks don‘t sound all that promising…what was I thinking?? #impulsebuy 8mo

CBee Hey friend - keeping you in my thoughts with this weather - please let me know you‘re okay ♥️♥️ @robinb 7mo
robinb @CBee Sorry I‘m just now seeing this, Cydney. We‘ve had tornadoes very close to us but no direct damage to us (some in town though I think). Expecting Round 2 around 3 am. Probably not much sleep tonight. I think maybe things have stayed north of you tonight? But looks like you might get some after us in the next round. Stay safe and thank you so much for asking! 😘 7mo
CBee @robinb glad all is well! It didn‘t come our way thank goodness 😅 7mo
robinb @CBee Glad you were spared! Our last round was 4:30 am and fortunately not as bad. Trees down in our neighborhood and no power since 10 pm but am thankful to be writing this. 🙏 7mo
CBee @robinb yes! Just had a big storm come through here but it‘s dissipating now. Might get more later but it isn‘t supposed to be severe 🤞🏻🤞🏻 7mo
robinb @CBee We were without power for 18 hours. There were places here hit harder than we were so I‘m glad they worked on theirs first. Utility workers are unsung heroes. 🩵 7mo
CBee @robinb wow! Yep, definitely unsung heroes - I never get irritated with them if it‘s taking longer - I know they‘re trying their best ♥️ 7mo
