Monster in the Middle | Tiphanie Yanique

Pickpick

In love with literary romance! The author believes you bring the love that made you to each new relationship. Fly‘s father fled the 1989 SF earthquake with his first love. We learn about Fly‘s mom and then Fly‘s first love. Stela‘s family is from the Virgin Islands and we meet her mom and dad, too. My fave story is Stela‘s first love and how it unspooled after a semester abroad. Then, Fly & Stela find each other in spite of the pandemic. #botm

Megabooks Not YA, fwiw. I get asked that sometimes. 3y

Megabooks @Librarybelle 👍🏻👍🏻🇬🇭 3y
BarbaraBB This sounds so good despite it being completely out of my wheelhouse! And all those prompts… tempting! 3y
Cinfhen Ohhh, I need a #Ghana book ! Thanks for sharing ❤️#Stacked 3y
Megabooks @BarbaraBB I really enjoyed it despite hating romance. It was equally literary fiction as romance. 👍🏻 3y
Megabooks @Cinfhen the whole book is not in Ghana, but stela does study abroad there for part of it, which really affects the rest of the book. So it depends on how strict you are with it. 3y
Cinfhen It‘s good for me!!! 3y

This is my #mirrorimage. The books are close. Gifts from two wonderful Litens. The Mirror is literally a trash find. It was sitting beside the road. I've had it for years and about 2 years ago I finally decided to do something with it. It was originally gold. I tried painting it white and it was so ugly. It glows in black. It is currently covered in a few layers of dust as it just came out of the garage. #magicalmarch

MidnightBookGirl Love it! I have several different copies and covers of The Night Circus too! 7y
vkois88 Beautiful books and mirror! I have this on my TBR as well 😊 7y
Mdargusch Very cool! 7y

Secret shame: I've only read The Hobbit. I've had this collection since I was 13 and they're much older than that even, having once belonged to my dad. Maybe one day I'll get through Fellowship, but my god the singing 😑

Rachbb3 I read all 4 last year for the first time. Loved them! 7y
night_shift @Rachbb3 people seem to like them and as much as I wanna and enjoy the movies, I just can't ever seem to finish even the first one. 7y
Rachbb3 Maybe it's just not your thing. 7y

night_shift @Rachbb3 that's the thing.. high fantasy IS my thing. I plan on trying again this year, so we'll see! 7y
Rachbb3 Good luck! 7y
Bkwrm7 I have been halfway through The Two Towers for.....about 10 years now? So I feel you on this! At this point I feel like I would need to start the whole trilogy over to remember what's going on. Maybe someday, but there's so many other books out there.... 7y
night_shift @Bkwrm7 absolutely so many other books out there! Lol 7y
night_shift 10 years is about the amount of time I've been trying to read this, too 😞 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I love that they belonged to your dad 💙💙💙💙 7y
night_shift @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks the man has his faults, but he never stopped me from reading. We had two chocked full cases of books in the house growing up. He got me into fantasy and horror. 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @UnidragonFrag I think every parent does, unfortunately some more than others ... so glad to have also grown up with books!!! 7y
CatLass007 I recommend the audiobooks. The narrator is wonderful and he brings these books alive! Even the singing. 7y
elizabethlk I lovelovelove the Hobbit, but I read all three LOTR books as a kid, and just didn't enjoy them the same way (despite loving the movies). Planning on doing a re-read since it has been a long time, but they're really different from the Hobbit in some ways. 7y
Amabear Love! What a pretty set! 7y
night_shift @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks yeah, true. Yup! And I've carried on the tradition! Though, a little more overboard lol 7y
night_shift @CatLass007 that's a great idea! I'll have to see if the library has the audiobooks.. @elizabethlk Odd.. I'm wondering if that's why I'm having so much trouble with it. Hm. They DO feel different though. 7y
night_shift @Amabear what the picture isn't showing so we'll is the clear tape holding the covers on of two of them. Shh.. lol but thanks! 😊 7y
Amabear @UnidragonFrag lol! Such character 😂 7y
vkois88 Great pic! I've honestly never read any of them. I attempted The Hobbit several times but couldn't get past the first page. It just didn't capture my attention. I wanted it to, but nope 😕 7y
emtobiasz Seconding the audiobooks-- listening to them on road trips was how my boyfriend and I finally finished Fellowship! Course, we never did finish books 2 and 3, so.... 7y
night_shift @vkois88 I feel you. I'm not sure i'd be able to re-read it now, even! @emtobiasz ok! Audiobooks it Is! That might be nice for road trips for us too! 7y

This one is on my TBR shelf. I picked it up at B&N in January but haven't gotten to it yet. The cover is beautiful... the broken mirror representing the broken character. #mirrorimage #MagicalMarch

How's this for an incredibly creepy #MirrorImage ? It's a picture from the incredible tagged book. Not my normal genre, but I loved it.

vkois88 I love this book!! 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Creepy!!! I just found the 3rd of that Trilogy at the Goodwill bookstore! I‘m waiting to look up on the second! 7y

Okay, so I didn't love this series, but I always liked the way the books and their jackets were designed to be a #mirrorimage of each other. #MagicalMarch @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Those are beautiful!!! ☺️☺️ 7y
cathysaid That's really cool. 7y
vkois88 They're gorgeous 😍 7y
jmtrivera @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @cathysaid @vkois88 I agree! Great idea. The design team for this duology was super talented. 7y

#MirrorImage #MagicalMarch - I bought this one without even reading the blurb just because of the author. Gavin Extence wrote The Universe Versus Alex Woods which is a book I absolutely loved! The polar bear is just because of all the snow we‘ve been having - plus I love all types of bears 🐻 ! 🌨⛄️❄️

vkois88 I'll have to look into this one. Thanks for sharing! 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I‘m not rubbing it in, but it‘s sunny and beautiful here!!! 😘🤗☺️❤️And I‘ll have to look this one up too!!! 7y
Christine11 @vkois88 😊💗 7y
Christine11 @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks It sounds lovely ! 😊💗☀️ I think it‘s starting to ease off a bit now so hopefully back to normal soon 😊💜💕 7y

Mirror Mirror: A Novel | Gregory Maguire

#magicalmarch #mirrorimage

Maguire is hit or miss with me. I love to read well known fairy tales told from different points of view and Maguire often does that with creativity. However, it can be such a chore to wade through his layers of symbolism.

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Pretty cover!!! 7y
vkois88 Beautiful ❤ 7y
LibrarianRyan I liked this book but the first bit where the dwarfs are growing/evolving from rocks takes forever. 7y

LibrarianRyan You should show the u see cover if that is your copy. 7y
mrp27 @LibrarianRyan I agree, that part took forever. I borrowed the book from the library when I read it so I don't have that copy. 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I have your package for #Heartsandhardcovers ready to be shipped out!! I have to have a minor surgery Monday, but I should be able to get it out Wednesday or Thursday 💕❤️💕❤️ 7y
mrp27 No worries, please take your time in light of your surgery! I hope it all goes well, sending positive thoughts. 💐🤗 7y
LibrarianRyan @mrp27 I love that most of his books have an undercover. It's like a secret to the story. What the dickens didn't and it one of his better stories. Still literary but written for kids and way more approachable. 7y
mrp27 @LibrarianRyan I never noticed. 🤔 Thanks for the recommendation, I'm going to have to check that one out! 7y
LibrarianRyan @mrp27 it's the story of the tooth fairy. But there are two stories entertained. The second story is of kids living through a storm like Katrina or PR. 7y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @mrp27 thank you so much 💕❤️💗 7y
