The Count of Monte Cristo | Alexander Dumas

#illmakeyousorry is basically the motto of the Count of Monte Cristo. If there's one thing this man can do it's revenge (but he can basically do everything else too!) #NoFemmeBer @Cinfhen @Billypar

LeahBergen Oh, good choice! 6y

Billypar Good pick! Love the illustration 😍 6y

Cinfhen Hahaha, a well rounded guy😉 6y

Pygmy | Chuck Palahniuk

Foreign exchange student & North Korean secret agent, Pygmy is sent to America as part of a secret terrorist operation. This is my least favorite Palahniuk that I've read so far, the concept of writing it in Pygymy's immigrant English wore thin after awhile. Palahniuk's tendency to veer from the satirical to the juvenile is even more on display here. Would have made a better novella.

gradcat Nice review 😊 6y

Billypar I never even heard of this one! Maybe there's a reason for that 🙄 6y

britt_brooke Have you read his newest one? It‘s a hot mess. I‘m really hit or miss with him. I haven‘t read Pygmy and don‘t plan to based on this. 😆 6y

Cinfhen Uh oh....we are reading Fight Club for #90sSpringFling hope it‘s not a hot mess @britt_brooke ??!!? 6y

britt_brooke @Cinfhen It‘s a crap shoot! 😆🤞🏻 I liked Choke and Invisible Monsters, but hated Adjustment Day and Diary. I‘ve always been curious about Fight Club, so I‘m looking forward to the #90sSpringFling. 6y

Cinfhen Absolutely 🤞🏼🤞🏼although book is under 250 pages, so there‘s that!!!! @britt_brooke 💋 6y

vivastory @Cinfhen He really is hit & miss. I usually like him, Fight Club is a good one. 6y

vivastory @britt_brooke I haven't read the newest one yet. I own it, but moved it down my list after the mixed reviews. I really liked Survivor. Rant is another good one. 6y

britt_brooke @vivastory I think I own Survivor. 🤔Maybe I‘ll give it a try one day. 6y

Dark Tide: The Great Boston Molasses Flood of 1919 | Stephen Puleo

I‘m sure a lot of people were sorry after the great molasses flood in Boston. 21 people were killed, not to mention plenty of animals (apparently the poor horses in the area had an impossible time escaping the molasses. 😢)

Apparently it was pretty obvious that the containers were overfilled and not well built. Such a tragedy that didn‘t have to happen.

Cinfhen Did u read this because of Head Full of Ghosts???? 6y

Reviewsbylola I haven‘t read it yet but that‘s why I checked it out! It was actually already on my TBR but that book was the catalyst that made me reserve it. 😆 @Cinfhen 6y

cathipink I just heard about this event from My Favorite Murder 🙂 6y

mreads Never heard of this and doesn't even seem like it could be real. Added to my TBR 😀 6y

IamIamIam You're always reminding me about cool shit I haven't read yet!!! 🤗😘🤗😘 6y

Tamra Wow, really? What a tragic sticky situation. (edited) 6y

LeahBergen @Cinfhen That book was the first time I‘d heard of this! 6y

Cinfhen So funny! @LeahBergen I‘m surprised you haven‘t checked out the book yet?!? 6y

mrp27 When I walked the freedom trail in Boston I got to see the pathway of the molasses flood but I don't know all the details. Going to stack this so I can learn more! 6y

Billypar Very weird- I feel like I'd read it just to get a better idea of how high the molasses got! 6y

First Wives Club | Olivia Goldsmith

Day 7: Nothing says #IllMakeYouSorry like a first wife scorned. I LOVE this movie, but have never read the book. Anyone read it? Should I stack?

#nofemmeber

Cinfhen, Billypar

Cinfhen I‘m pretty sure I read this book years ago!!! And I remember liking it not sure how I‘d feel about it now. Still, an awesome pick!!! 6y

britt_brooke @Cinfhen Thanks! 💚 6y

britt_brooke @rubyslippersreads 😁😉 6y

Marilyncjackson The book is different from the movie. The movie got the tone of the book ok, but the book is about the wives overcoming and moving on. I LOVED the book and I just love the movie 😆. I recommend the book. 6y

britt_brooke @Marilyncjackson Good to know - thanks a bunch! 6y

Cinfhen I think we are showing our age @rubyslippersreads @Marilyncjackson 😉 6y

Marilyncjackson @Cinfhen lol maybe a little 6y

Susanita I enjoyed the book and the movie. As usual, the movie condensed the story a bit, but as mentioned above it still captured the spirit of the book. Love the scene in your picture! 6y

britt_brooke @Susanita I‘ve had “You Don‘t Own Me” stuck in my head all morning! 🎶😬 6y

Susanita 👍🏻 6y

LazyDays Great movie!! 6y

DGRachel I love, love, love the movie and didn‘t realize there was a book. 🤩 6y

Billypar I have not- looks like some good dancing though! 💃💃💃 6y

britt_brooke @DGRachel It‘s such a great movie! One day I‘ll try the book. 6y

britt_brooke @Billypar It‘s a fun revenge movie! One day I‘ll try the book. 6y

I know, Hagrid is not a female MC, but there's Hermione and the books were written a strong woman. So it counts. 😜

Billypar Ha- that's great. If you manage to get on Hagrid's bad side, it's pretty clear that you should reexamine your life choices anyway 😀 6y

Cinfhen Been thinking about reading this book but not sure if it‘s gonna be too outdoorsy for me??!!! 6y

Billypar I heard so much about the movie when it came out, but I don't know much about the book or author. Sounds intriguing though! 6y

The Crimson Petal and the White | Michel Faber

A prostitute who wants to take revenge on all the men, who have treated her and all women badly. She does this by making a rich guy fall in love with her, and then makes her way deeper and deeper into his life. Need I say more about, why I picked this for #IllMakeYouSorry?

And yes, I probably should shut up about this book, but I won‘t till you all read it, so there‘s that 🙃😉

#NoFemmeber

Cinfhen, Billypar

Cinfhen That plot sounds brilliant!!! Another book that I NEED to get to!!! 6y

Kalalalatja @Cinfhen yes! And I know @emilyhaldi will second that opinion 👍 6y

Cinfhen I need a new category on Litsy - like a TBR and then a GET RIGHT NOW 6y

erzascarletbookgasm @Cinfhen like a book that has been longest on your TBR perhaps? 6y

Cinfhen There are some books I‘d like to read one day and then there are books that I feel like I need to read right away @erzascarletbookgasm but I can‘t remember which are which because I stack soooooo many!!! 6y

batsy Great pick! 6y

emilyhaldi This is definitely a GET RIGHT NOW contender 😉😉😉 @Cinfhen 6y

Cinfhen 💕 @emilyhaldi this better not be like the Butcher‘s Hook .... I didn‘t love that one 6y

Quirkybookworm Did not care too much for it.. 6y

Kalalalatja I really think you should read it @Cinfhen but every book I have recommended to you have ended up #MoreMehThanYeah. But both @emilyhaldi @batsy and I really like it, so use that info as you like 😄 6y

Kalalalatja @Quirkybookworm oh no! I really loved it, but people differ 😊 6y

Cinfhen I know @Kalalalatja our tastes run hot & cold sometimes 😘I‘m still willing to give it a try 6y

LeahBergen @Cinfhen I LOVE this book! I‘m chiming in here. 😆 6y

emilyhaldi Omg @Cinfhen I would be so sad if you didn't like this one!!... But like @Kalalalatja said, our tastes to tend to differ 😆 this book is def my favorite I've read this year though 🙌🏻 6y

Centique @Cinfhen I have this on order and plan to read it next month! 6y

Billypar It does sound good, but that's quite a page count 😬 Though, with a revenge plotline, maybe that's a good thing- a big payoff, dish-served-cold sort of thing?😼🍝 6y

BarbaraBB And here am I, another fan of the book @Cinfhen 😀. 6y

Cinfhen I just noticed the page count @Billypar 😱#pagecountphobia‼️‼️ @emilyhaldi @LeahBergen @Centique @BarbaraBB @Kalalalatja YOU GUYS ARE KILLING ME😳 6y

emilyhaldi Lololol @Cinfhen this definitely qualifies as a #chunkster but I'm telling you I did NOT want it to end!!! 6y

Kalalalatja @Billypar @Cinfhen it didn‘t feel like a chunkster at all, the pages just flew by, for me 💨 6y

jillrhudy I see all these hashtags and never know what they mean. I saw #nofemmeber used with #nonfictionnovember but Littens are using that tag for every kind of book there is. 6y

Chrissyreadit @jillrhudy It is the November challenge sponsored by @Cinfhen and @Billypar - I am new to the game but it has been fun! Follow the hashtag and you will see each days prompt. 6y

Billypar Thanks @Chrissyreadit for that summary of the challenge! @jillrhudy I never knew what photo challenges were at first either, but they are really fun. For this one, created by @Cinfhen , each day is a different song and you just post a book it makes you think of. #NoFemmeber is the monthly theme (all female artists). @Cinfhen is giving herself an extra challenge to post all nonfiction, so that's where that tag comes into play. Feel free to join in! 6y

Cinfhen Thanks for the explanation @Chrissyreadit @Billypar Hope you‘ll join us @jillrhudy 6y
