Day 14: Bell. This is a bell from the Polar Express. Our local train station runs an amazing Polar Express experience every Christmas. We went a few times when the girls were younger and it was so good. Plus amazing hot chocolate.

Halfwayr through with this one and so far it‘s very intriguing- the eerie wasteland makes me think of Vandermeer‘s Annhilation/ Southern Reach novels which I also enjoyed lots!
so-soBe forewarned that this is not a cosy mystery. There is a lot of domestic violence and rape as well as traumatic birth covered in this book. The cover and title are misleading in their cutsieness. I liked the author's descriptive writing style, and I liked the main character very much, but the ending was overwhelming, and I felt yanked around.
so-soAn enjoyable thriller with good characters. The isolated situation of a stranded train added to the tension nicely.
Book 3 is complete for my #10beforetheend

“There is no Santa,” my friend had insisted, but I knew he was wrong.

Three Christmases ago Wes fully attached to The Polar Express when we borrowed it from the library. From there came the movie. This year is the second year we‘ve been able to participate in The Polar Express with the National Railroad Museum. Unfortunately grandma was sick this year so only mom and Great Aunt Kay made it. But we got our first successful Santa pic!
Put aside one book and picked up this one. So far, so good. 🤞🏻
