I tried the audiobook of this book and I didn‘t like the narrator so I‘m going to be reading my paperback copy of this book. It‘s interesting so far but I think it‘s weird that some random woman the main character doesn‘t know on the phone had phone sex with him even though he‘s married and the psychic lady seems very weird. His cat is also missing. The teenage girl is weird. What is happening in this book? I have no idea.

The final book of the series. Apparently I read the entire series before, but I only had memories of The Giver. Nothing in the other 3 was familiar. I guess I hated it so much originally I blocked it. It isn‘t my favorite series & I really wouldn‘t recommend it, but I do like how the very different books were connected & tied it all together at the end.

A dark fairy tale about a princess who wants to save his sister from her abusive husband. Interesting characters, together and separately. Compelling story. Clever writing. Another case of #authoramonth helping me broaden my horizons.

Soubhiville Yay! 2h

#JanuaryBluesReadathon This was just as good as the first book in the duology! It always held my interest and stretched my imagination. I wish Charlie had a better self-image, and didn‘t brood that every decision she made was bad. I disagree with her and when it comes to doing what she can to help those she cares about, she goes all out. You‘ve got to love someone who loves the way she does. The ending is absolutely perfect!

The following isn't important right now, with everything else going on...I just found this annoying.

After many years of avoidance, my mom and I tried some mail ordering last year. We loved the shopping, but not the waiting for the packages in this crazy world...so we gave it up again.

Flash forward a few months.

We have no truly local book store in my neighborhood, so with part two of the tagged series coming out this month

👇🏼

AnnCrystal I figured I would place a little order...because if I'm placing an order, it can't be just for one book 🤗.

When I went out to a local store to buy the B&N gift cards (I don't believe in credit), they told me I was only allowed one card. So I figured I'd get the B&N cards that you can select your own amount.

Then I was told that I was over the approved limit allowed. I asked why when the card says up to $500?

They mumbled some lame excuse, but something similar had happened before to my mom...during Little (t's) first term, except then, they wanted her to show an ID because “only Americans“ were allowed to purchase gift cards.

AnnCrystal 🤬 I'm never going to try mail ordering again! 🤬🤬🤬.

I can read an ebook faster than an audiobook! lol

Overall I enjoyed this quick read. I kept reading to find out how their relationship would turn out; it is definitely fraught with not working out. There were many parts when my suspension of disbelief was muttering to the book at the absurdity of how much pain one body can take and keep going. At the moment I‘m not sure how I feel about continuing the series, but I may be open to it later.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The PERFECT book to start off the new year. I honestly have zero changes or additions to make to this book, it's perfect. The characters are likable, the world is gorgeous, even for people like me who aren't very familiar with the original story. If you are, though, there are plenty of easter eggs amid the obvious similarities to Alice in Wonderland. Marissa Meyer writes insanity arcs so well, and this book is a new favorite of mine. ❤️
