#rocktober #littlelies

Whenever I think of lies, Matilda comes first to mind. I loved this poem with the glee only 8 year olds can have about characters meeting a dreadful end! So I memorised it and performed it as often as anyone would let me. 😂 My poor parents!

I hope it‘s not too tiny to read!

Cinfhen I‘m impressed if you memorized all that at 8 🙌🏻💕 7y
Centique @Cinfhen might have been a bit older when I memorised it but I was certainly painful to listen to 😜 7y
BarbaraBB What a fantastic poem and how impressive that you memorized it. Roald Dahl is the best! 7y

Reggie That ending....I think would have terrified me as a kid. I‘m impressed you memorized it. 7y
Centique @BarbaraBB thanks! It‘s actually by Hillaire Belloc. My mother had his books and no Roald Dahl at all. I didn‘t read Dahl‘s Matilda until this year but I loved it! 7y
Centique @Reggie that‘s so interesting! And look at you now reading the really scary stuff and me being a scaredy cat! 😂🤣 I always liked memorising poems in case there was an emergency and I was suddenly needed on stage or something. Ridiculous child! 😜 7y
BarbaraBB Oh really? I read Matilda and thought this poem would be by Dahl as well. Still great though! 7y

This is the first book I got to read in the #whodunitbymail group. I am going to go from mystery novice to mystery expert over the course of 30 books! #blameitonlitsy 👍

Cinfhen I haven‘t read her yet, did you enjoy her writing? 7y
dariazeoli @Cinfhen I gave it 3.5 out of 5. It was my first of hers, and she successfully had me shaking my head at the characters. I‘d like to read another by her if my #TBR ever shrinks! 😁 7y

One of Us Is Lying | Karen M. Mcmanus

#Rocktober #LittleLies All of my e-book holds came in including this one. I thought I'd give it a start over breakfast & the title fits today's musical prompt.🎤👍I *needed* (a little lie) avocado toast with spicy garlic aioli & had no ripe avocados in the house so I popped by the coffeeshop for some & an iced soy chai before running Saturday errands. It's a gorgeous day 🌺 (no lie) but the trade winds are due to leave for haze this week.😷🤧😬

BarbaraBB Great circumstances (no lie 😉)! 7y
Cinfhen Love this post [no lie] looks like a perfect Saturday ❤️And book is super fun 7y
addendumadventure Intriguing!! 7y

The Book of Lies | Brad Meltzer

Some of my books with the word lie or lies in them. The one that stands out is The Book of Lies by Brad Meltzer, got to love a book that connects Cain and Abel and Superman! Only gave it 3.5 stars but I did enjoy it. #LittleLies #Rocktober

BarbaraBB “Here Lies..” 😉 7y

Andrew65 @rubyslippersreads Me too, I learnt a lot of my early history through Jean Plaidy. Loved The Victoria Series. 7y

The Phantom tells Christine lots of #littlelies, plays more than one #trick, and wants to turn the Paris Opera House into a #bloodbath. If I were Miss Piggy, I'd certainly choose Gerard Butler over Kermit. 😄🐸❤️ #loveneverdies #favouritehalloweenreads #rocktober #hallowreads #melodiousmusicals #uncannyoctober #octoberlibrary17 #multitasking

I love the scene in which Scarlett tells Rhett #littlelies in that jail wearing the dress made from her window curtains, hoping that he‘ll pay the taxes on Tara. She certainly was a saucy little minx. #rocktober

Mdargusch Until he sees her hands 🙈 7y
BarbaraBB Lots of lies in that book 😉😍 7y
Reviewsbylola Gotta love our girl Scarlett! 7y

Some books about lies on my kindle. Not read any of these again, I think my kindle may be renamed the graveyard of the tbr pile.....

BarbaraBB I‘ve been meaning to read The White Lie for years but somehow it stays on my tbr as well! 7y
Melissa_J @BarbaraBB I‘ve had it on my TBR pile forever, too! 7y
merelybookish Graveyard TBR!. ☺️ I understand! 7y

#Rocktober This family saga begins with some #littleLies which lead to BIG changes, upheavals, discoveries and ultimately life altering consequences. I really LOVED this book, but it took me a few tries until I found my book rhythm🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊it was five juicy oranges for me

Reviewsbylola This is on my Bingo TBR so maybe I‘ll finally read it. I had to buy it almost as soon as it came out but then never read it. 😂 7y
Skybariline I really loved this one! The first Patchett I‘ve read. 7y
BarbaraBB Just bought this one so I am happy to hear you liked it that much! 7y
bedandabook I loved this one, as I have all the Patchetts I‘ve read. She‘s a great writer. 7y
