The Project | Courtney Summers

It was nearly impossible to pry this one out of my hands to actually try to sleep last night! Summers‘ latest is another tragic sisters story- Bea and Lo are close but a tragic accident leaves Lo feeling abandoned and replaced by The Unity Project- a group that emphatically denies being a cult but definitely is raising alarm bells in others. Revealing both sisters‘ stories, this is riveting from start to finish! #BookWear

candority I love your shirt or is it a blanket? I can‘t tell, but either way I love it! (edited) 3y
TorieStorieS @candority Thanks so much!! It‘s a hooded sweatshirt! Unfortunately the company it‘s from doesn‘t exist anymore! 3y

Set in an abbey in the Carpathian Mountains, this spooky story opens up with a grisly tale about the setting for The Event. Five influencers are set to stay there and provide exclusive content for their followers. But soon things start to go horribly wrong. Not super scary but definitely creepy, this fast-paced read really has kicked off the Halloween spirit for me!! #Bookwear

LiteraryinLawrence I have that sweatshirt in purple! 4y
TorieStorieS @LiteraryinLititz So fun!!! I love bookish clothing! Fun to be twins!!! 🥳 4y

This is my November real-life book club choice, & though this one won the unanimous vote, I really wanted to bail on it! The characters are all unlikable; the plot holds only one surprise. The scenes skip around disjointedly which only makes it harder to connect with this book! I thought this sounded fun, but there‘s literally nothing fun at all here! I hate to write a bad review, but hopefully that it will lead to a lively book club discussion!

cathipink Sorry this was a blerg book, but I love your shirt/blanket/fabric behind it 🙂 4y
TorieStorieS @cathipink Thanks!! It‘s a t-shirt! Gotta sport some #bookwear! ☺️ 4y

Happy Sat morning in Australia. How cool are my new pjs? A cold wind is blowing straight off the ocean and onto my apartment this morning so I am in bed with organic earl grey tea with milk, under 3 doonas getting a head start on my next #LMPBC. Might have a spa and sauna before yoga then a catch up with friends before a walk and some cooking, eating and drinking and perhaps movie watching. #lifeistoughformargaretmeadnotme #bfc2hasntevenstartedyet

TheSpineView Sounds lovely! 5y

Thanks to #NetGalley for this fascinating read!! It‘s an interesting mashup of memoir, history, behavioral research, personal anecdotes & spiritual self-help all centered around wolves- & their longstanding connection to humanity. Alfero includes myths from around the world & a lot of his personal views and beliefs. This may not appeal to everyone- but it‘s quite interesting & different from many of the #Wolf books that I‘ve read before! #bookwear

This YA thriller is a survival story post plane crash in the jungle- there are plenty of natural dangers, compounded with the drama that the group of survivors are all in high school! It‘s a #OneSittingRead from James Patterson‘s publishing imprint. It‘s lacking some supporting detail that would make this more realistic but doesn‘t want for page-turning excitement! #Bookwear

k.reads.5 Great review, this looks like a fun suspense read! 5y
TorieStorieS @pl.2886 Thanks!! 😊 It‘s a fast and fun read! 5y

This debut police procedural makes for an engaging and entertaining read!! Yes, some of the plot takes expected turns- but there are some genuine surprises too!! I‘m definitely looking forward to a sequel!! #BookWear

TheNerdyProfessor Have you heard if there is a planned sequel? It felt like this book wrapped up all the plot lines by the end. 6y
TorieStorieS @TheNerdyProfessor On Goodreads it‘s slated as the first in a series! 🤞🤞 6y

Whew!!!! That was INTENSE!!!! Seriously- I think this is his best yet!! And this marks the second #BookReadInOneSitting that I‘ve read today!! I was excited to use one of my new slashery bookmarks from @JoeStalksBeck but I never put this down! This was way beyond edge of your seat tense... I was literally pacing while reading!!! I was sweating in my #bookwear!! #RiotGrams @bookriot
