I really like this series. This is book 2, this one is about the husband of the kidnapped woman and their son. It is pretty intense, and i felt cold through the whole book as it happened in winter. lol. #ISpyBingoMarch I got one spot. Didn't do too well on this bingo. Three readathons. #SeriesLove24 #ReadAway2024 #MarvelousMarchReadathon @Clwojick @TheAromaofBooks @TheSpineView @Andrew65 @DieAReader @GHABI4ROSES

Yikes these are hard #wonderouswednesday @Eggs

1. Susanne Clark, Ariel Lawhon, Alan Bradley, Joanne Fluke
2. Favorite genre - magical realism
So therefore favorite book - tagged
Ok I can't pick one so...
Favorite genre - mystery
Favorite book - thirteenth tale.
Just a really well done, creepy mystery. That's my sweet spot
3. I'll go with Alan Bradley although I feel like I could say Jasper Fforde, Carlos Ruiz Zafon, Joanne Fluke.

Eggs Great choices! Thanks for playing 🙏🏻🙏🏻 3h

4⭐️ I feel like anything and everything I want to say would spoil this book. It‘s a similar concept to book 1 in that the rulers only have a set # of days to save LightLark, however this time Isla has her powers. The book hops between before Centennial and present day, but is remembering worth the pain? All previous characters make an appearance, and introduces some new ones. Decent sequel- can‘t wait for the 3rd!!

Never mind espionage; even to get a job as a dock worker was beyond his powers. He was an office clerk who cowered from rats. He couldn't even buy his own black-market goods! Murder, blackmail, suicide - he hadn't the foggiest conception what these words really meant. It made her conscious, as she'd never been before, that thoughtcrime was nothing to do with crime.

This almost was a 'so-so', but the wonderful descriptive prose and beautiful world that Collins created saved it for me and kept me reading. I much preferred The Binding and I think because The Grand Jeux was so mysteriously described throughout, it was actually distracting, because I kept feeling like I was at a loss for info. If the author's note about The Glass Bead Game had come first rather than post script, I would have felt more settled.

I discovered this fun reading challenge in December by @theuncorkedlibrarian .

I completed the first quarter and decided to read the entire card instead of just doing bingo.

Reading challenges enrich my reading by enlisting new genres, authors and books to me.

QOTD: Do you engage in reading challenges?
