Thanks for hosting this, @CBee
I LOVE this book. I enjoyed it even more this time around. I feel like I picked up on new things and appreciated all of the characters more. 💙💙💙
Read this last January and 3 more days until Book 2 releases

pickLike some of y‘all have mentioned, this was even better the second time around ♥️♥️ Thanks for joining me, whether it was your first or second (or fifth 😂) time reading it! On to the next, and I cannot WAIT 😊😊
pickI re-read this in anticipation of the sequel publishing next week. I liked it even better the second time around (hard to believe)! This is exactly what I needed to read in this moment. 💙 [Full review to come, hopefully.]
pickSeptember #AuthorAMonth #ReadAway2024 #SeriesLove2024 I loved this book! I couldn‘t stop listening. The first couple of chapters were a bit rough because it felt like 1984 with kids. But I fell in love with the characters and their story. I can‘t wait for the second book to come out in just a few days. And TJ Klune has become a new “must” buy.

So glad to have reread this book in anticipation of the release of the sequel. I think I loved it even more this time.
Thanks for hosting @CBee
pickThis book was full of hope and found families. It was also about discovering who you really are inside. The emotions were there in all the right places. 5 stars.

Word 3/5
#AuthorAMonth Spider Robinson created a character who was a were-Beagle. In one of the movies with Wesley Snipes as Blade there were vampire Pomeranians. In this book I‘ve just been introduced to a were-Pomeranian.
pickI read this twice and gave it a pick both times, so this is definitely a double pick. I can‘t wait, even more, for the next one. I can‘t decide if I want Arthur and Linus‘s wedding to be in this one, or if I want them to be married already. I don‘t care, as long as I can just get my hands on that book! Reading this book feels like going home!
1/3
Updated character descriptions… this all used to fit in one square…

I have finished, so I‘m starting again, because I seriously love this story!
I just need Daniel Henning to learn to say the word gazebo.

Just a quick check in! I‘m loving this list as much as the first time ♥️ Anyone else have “Beyond the Sea” running through your head? Well, if not, you do now 😂 Links to songs in comments 🌊 🌊🌊 #readtheceruleansea

No need to overthink this, so I just drop my #BookSpinBingo list here.
Yes, I am ready for fall.

… and all the magical children he saved and created a family for, and the unconditional love he gave them.
I love this book more every time I read it.

This is amazingly poignant to modern America. I mean, I don‘t want paper-mâché human heads anywhere, but the evangelicals in megachurches is fairly accurate!

This line always makes my stomach curl. What an amazing way to twist around the whole “children should be seen and not heard” idea to at least sound to like they have a crap about kids.

The first time I read this beautiful book, I put these notes in my reading journal. The second time I read it, I didn‘t look at them and totally forgot about Arthur being a phoenix, so I copied them into my new entry for this reread.

“Hate is loud, but I think you‘ll learn it‘s because it‘s only a few people shouting, desperate to be heard.”
Okay guys! Here‘s my plan: start reading this around Monday, 8/26, aim to finish around 9/10 (when the sequel drops). I‘ll do occasional check ins - this isn‘t really a “challenge,” just a low key reread (or first read). Sound good? #readtheceruleansea
Anyone interested in a buddy reread (or plain old buddy read if you‘ve not read it before) of this one before the sequel comes out? It drops on September 10.
Public service announcement for all the kindle readers 🤓
pick4.5 ⭐
Unique characters and a story full of heart, that's what you get whenever you pick up a book by this author. And if you opt for the #audiobooks you are treated to an incredible auditory experience w/skilled narrator Daniel Henning at the helm. Through his voice talent he not only reads the words on the pages but breathes life into the characters in a beautiful, heartwarming way. Highly recommend and can hardly wait for the next book.
pickI just reread it for the third time and love it forever.
pickFirst reads of summer! I enjoyed The House in the Cerulean Sea - it is like Harry Potter mixed with The Umbrella Academy. Delightful!
pick5 🌟 - What a beautifully charming book. I absolutely devoured this book in a matter of days; something that I have not done in a while. And its all thanks to the beautiful writing and incredible story. This book has one of my favorite tropes: found family. Which is the main focus of the book where even outcasts can find family and love, especially when they least expect it.
Attended an author event through Fairfax County Library with TJ Klune, which was all kinds of awesome. If you ever have a chance to go to one of his events, I can highly recommend it! He‘s very entertaining.
He said his favorite of his characters is Chauncey, so obviously we‘re twinsies 💚❤️💚
Reading my third Klune in the lead up to this week‘s virtual program hosted by my local library system.
It appears to be open to all, so if you‘re free on Thursday and want to watch, hit the link below to register.
Happy Pride!
