so-soMFA fiction about existential fears and the pervasive anxieties of continuing to live as the world falls apart.
Honestly, writing that out it feels like this would have been for me but it just wasn't. I don't feel that Pattee did enough with her narrative. Beyond the voicing of these fears, what is she trying to express here?
pickI‘m not a huge fan of the ‘horror‘ genre, mostly because I don‘t find such books particularly horrifying. This book, however…. 😱
Annie is shopping in Ikea, at 37 weeks‘ pregnant, when the ‘big‘ earthquake hits. The story follows her over the course of a day as she tries to make her way home on foot.
It‘s truly terrifying as it could really happen and shows us how people could behave in such a situation. A couple of things I didn‘t like ⬇️
Thank you so much Catie! The coffee you sent is delicious. This book is next on my stack to read!

I cannot get into this book. It is slow and boring for me. It is really a bummer. I was looking forward to it. I will maybe try again in the future.
Morning reads with one of my gremlins. Starting this one today, while waiting for the next tog book.
Enjoying a little cozy reading time tonight 😊 I love the illustrations in this story!
It‘s still in progress, but I‘m mixing a little holiday stitching in with my reading of the tagged book today! 😄🦈🎄
Not feeling well today, so I‘m taking that as a sign to cozy up under a blanket and enjoy some books for the #cozyreads readathon 📚🍁
pickI really enjoyed this second book in the accidental alchemist series. It centers around a new mystery while continuing a plot line from book 1. I really like the characters and that there‘s a live gargoyle in the story. Pandian infuses the story with the right amount of quirkiness.
pickI adored this little story. It fed my inner child, sometimes that‘s just what you need.
