Almost forgot to mention that I finished this book last night. I talked about it in the last episode of our #podcast, Bookish Impulses. Find it anywhere you listen to podcasts.
🙂👍🏽
It‘s a middle grade fairy tale story. Not your typical Prince Charming saves the damsel in distress. It‘s about 2 siblings who must run away to prevent Wynn, the sister, from being sold as a slave to their lord. There‘s evil creatures, fairies, changelings and more.

TheBookAddict It‘s part of a series. 2 books so far. I will be looking for the second book soon. 🙂👍🏽 (edited) 5y
wordslinger42 I love the cover! It reminds me of the artwork for 5y

TheBookAddict @wordslinger42 it is pretty. I must admit that‘s the reason why I picked it up. You‘re right, the cover for Snow & Rose is similar. Did you read it? Was it good? 5y
wordslinger42 @TheBookAddict I have read it and really enjoyed it! I thought it was very whimsical and beautifully written 5y
TheBookAddict @wordslinger42 I may have to read it! I‘ve added it to my TBR, thanks. 🙂👍🏽 5y
wordslinger42 @TheBookAddict Of course! I'm excited to see what you think of it! 5y

A really good novella that I was supposed to read 6 years ago, per @KennethTolesJr 😆. We finished recording our #podcast episode about our thoughts about it. Really heart breaking but definitely worth a read. Be aware of SPOILERS. Here‘s the link https://anchor.fm/bookish-impulses/episodes/Of-Mice-and-Men-Book-Discussion-SPOI... LOOKF FOR BOOKISH IMPULSES PODCAST and share it with a friend or two.

So far, so good. It resembles a YA story in the first part, but I don't think it's going to stay that way. Not sure where it's headed honestly. But it's good. I'm going to finish it this week, and we'll discuss it on the podcast this weekend. The Bookish Impulses podcast.

Found on all your podcast apps for free.

I drove in the snow across town today. I braved the dangers of many idiot drivers in Rockford, IL. I had my cold hands on 10 and let us not forget 2. I kept my sore neck and head on a swivel as I traversed the known unknowns of the treacherous winter beaten path. But we managed to make it back alive and well, with @TheBookAddict 's #libraryhaul

Decided to go with this gem from my #TBR instead of the usual Stephen King venture. Not to mention this is book number 3 that I'm reading at the same time...

I did some #audiodrawing. I created our #BookishImpulsesPodcast logo/picture while listening to #LesMis. What do you all think? I‘m down to 6 hrs left. 🙌🏽

Here‘s the beginning to Sy‘s reading journal. If you listened to our podcast you know what I‘m talking about.

He liked the book. He chuckled quite a bit and was making the voices and sound effects for it. His favorite part was when the dogs started fighting and then Petunia chased Uncle Murat up the tree.

Here‘s the link for our latest #podcast episode: https://anchor.fm/bookish-impulses/episodes/Ep--8-Favorites-of-2018--Reading-in-...

#BookishImpulses #BIP #AnchorPodcast #Anchor
In this episode we give thanks to @UwannaPublishme for her kindness, we also talk about our favorite reads of 2018, and we talk about our #readinggoals of 2019. We also ramble a bit...like always.

MemoirsForMe That was a very generous shout-out. How sweet of you both! ☺️❤️Loved listening to your faves and new challenges. Can‘t wait for the episode with Sy. And maybe one on Les Mis? 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 6y
BookishImpulses @UwannaPublishme no, thank you! And thanks for listening. Yesterday I posted an episode of just me (Yesenia) talking about Les Mis (not a review). We will be working on our episode with Sy this weekend. I will very likely talk about Les Mis again. 🙂 (edited) 6y
