pickOkay, this follow-up book to The Initial Insult wasn't purely realistic, but I was hooked. It's one of those books that never lets up and is the perfect escape. I had to know what happened next, and I adored the suspense.

pickNovember 2025 Book #1
There is a movie adaptation of this book, it is not bad but I highly recommend to read the book first. This is a slow pace character driven story. The book August character, is so different of the the movie one, the actor is good but not same. In the book you will understand better that great twist at the end😱Maybe there was a sensation that the story was dragged out after the half part but then…the twist⬇️
#bookspin 2025 wrap up
Welp. Its been a year. I didn‘t do so well at reading my bookspin picks, only 3/12. Still, I had lots of fun playing.
pickTress is determined to figure out what happened on the night her parents disappeared, and her methods have a Poe-like flare. Some of this tale is a little far-fetched--the chapters from a panther's point of view--but the story is addictive. It is mostly about a destructive friendship. I'm glad I have the second book.

Reading today, another short by Poe. I‘ve only known a couple of his poems and really like the rhythm that runs through them, I‘m finding this rhythm is also in his shorts. This is the third story I will be reading by Edgar Allan Poe.
These are my three selections for the weekend. I've got lots to do, but if I can fully read the tagged and make decent progress on the other two , I'll be a happy camper. All are for my push to finish #192025 in a somewhat timely manner.

That‘s one of my favorite lines in one of my favorite stories (The Masque of the Red Death). “Which embrace three thousand and six hundred seconds of the times that flies.”
pickThis collection is a pick, even though I averaged only 3/5 among all the stories. It‘s a great introduction to Poe which concludes in his more famous work. The narration is solid and clear. Definitely a Poe fan after reading this collection.

I had two picks for this month as well. I didn‘t want to pit two spicy books against each other when my January AND February books are also two spicy books against each other, so I made one a wild card.
