Nope. Not for me. Too weird. #HailtheBail #BetterBooksAhead

julieclair This was my choice for the June #BookedInTime prompt, 1800‘s Australia. I‘m going to try this one instead (not in Litsy Catalogue) Search for the Light, by Rosemary Noble. @Cuilin 4d
Cuilin Yes 🙌 #HailTheBail Hope your next one is more enjoyable. 4d
kspenmoll Your new choice sounds good. Do you have a kindle/app? It‘s free on kindle ( much as I avoid ordering from Amazon, I still use my kindle) 4d

dabbe YES! 🤩🤩🤩 4d
julieclair @kspenmoll Thanks for the kindle hint! Just downloaded it. And I agree about Amazon. I‘m trying to cut down, but boy, it‘s hard sometimes. Every time I make a different choice, I pat myself on the back. 3d
julieclair @Cuilin Thanks! Fingers crossed!🤞 3d
julieclair @dabbe 💙💟💙 3d
kspenmoll @julieclair it is a constant challenge. I am Glad Blackwell‘s is back shipping to the US. It helps. 3d
julieclair @kspenmoll Thanks for the reminder about Blackwell‘s! I tend to forget about them unless I want to buy a book that‘s unavailable in the US. 7h

Honestly, I don‘t quite know how to feel about this book which is why I gave it 3 stars.

This book started off so slow. It took me a while to get into it. It just felt like the story was meandering and that made it boring.

By the second half it got more exciting and it low key got a little horny, which I typically don‘t mind but in this case it felt random.

Prairiegirl_reading I was hate reading by the end. Lots of people love it. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 2w
oddandbookish @Prairiegirl_reading I didn‘t hate it but I definitely didn‘t love it either. It got such great reviews and I was expecting more from it. 2w

Ever dreamed of leaving it all behind? Of packing up your bindle, strapping on your best walking shoes, and hopping on the nearest train to... anywhere but here?

At least now you can read the real stories of the men who actually did it in our freshly restocked Hobo Literature collection.

Ride the rails with the most famous (and infamous) hobos, tramps, and vagabonds in history❗

This book was so good, but MAN…our girl Kiva is a little slow sometimes. Like, keep up, m‘lady. You are missing some pretty obvious revelations, here. She can be a bit frustrating at times, but lucky for her, it doesn‘t make her unlikable.
