There was no way a sequel could compete with my love for Olive Kitteridge but I love Olive so much and was thrilled to be able to spend more time with her. #booked2023 #propernounintitle

This book is very strange.
It centers around a young woman who marries a doctor and becomes bored with her life.

I really wanted to love this novel - how cool would it be to turn travel and meet Jane Austen!! - but it just was not for me. I did not really care for the MC, and that probably has some to do with my overall so-so feeling of the book. Henry‘s portrayal in the novel also seemed a bit callous - I understand he liked a good time, but it seemed a bit too much. Who knows, though??? Finally took the time to finish this for #PemberLittens .
I finished (but haven't yet reviewed) 7 books for #booked2023 during the first quarter of 2023.

It's factually wrong about too many things. For over 400 pages nothing much happens. The UK of 2055 looks like someone from 1955 dreamed it up. The Middle Ages part is displayed so stereotypically; it hurts.

This is a coming-of-age story of a teenage girl in #Argentina. All she wants is to play futbol, but she's up against a society that doesn't believe girls should be individuals. Everyone from her family to her boyfriend wants to control her. I enjoyed it. #ReadingTheAmericas2023 #Booked2023 #ProperNounInTitle #MarvellousMarch #MarchMadness @Librarybelle @BarbaraBB @alisiakae @Cinfhen @BarbaraTheBibliophage @Andrew65 @DieAReader @GHABI4ROSES
At the weekend + dashing off to visit my mum I grabbed this ex library bk off the shelf as a quick read and for #propernounintitle #booked2023
Overall a strange story abt a yng man who sees dead people + is pulled into a potential future terrible crime. Enjoyed it but not sure if I'll carry on with the series. Very Stephen King like. Another one taken off that looming pile in the spare bedroom.

Well-told audiobook that makes you question every side of the complex story behind both Trump impeachments. I have new admiration for some players and just SMDH with many more. Some new angles on the over-reported story.

Septuagenarian crossword creator, Judith, thinks her neighbor has been murdered. She forms a friendship with Suzie, a dog walker, and Becks, the vicar‘s wife, while she tries to solve his murder.
I enjoyed this one and I‘m hoping I can find the second audiobook at my library soon. I think this is being compared to The Thursday Murder Club, but I didn‘t love it quite like I do that series. #Booked2023 #propernounintitle
