Black Candle Women: A Novel | Diane Marie Brown

pick

Hard to describe, but I guess I‘d categorize as magical realism. Really enjoyed getting to know the family. It had a satisfying ending.

2.75/4 ⭐️

I think this is a soft pick for me. I was expecting a different story. This wasn‘t a bad story, just sad. I enjoyed the magical realism elements. They weren‘t overpowering though. It was more like realism with a touch of magical.

On Stranger Tides | Tim Powers

My second favorite Tim Powers book, after The Anubis Gates. It has everything: pirates, zombies, ghosts, shipwrecks, and curses. The book is far, far, far better than the movie version they did with Johnny Depp as part of the Pirates of the Caribbean series.

Bookwomble Yes! This is an excellent book, and as you say, far superior to the films. 4mo

Blueberry That was a fun book. 4mo

BookmarkTavern What an exciting cover! Thanks for answering! 4mo

swynn I love this one too. I remember being told that it was being made into a film, then the other show dropped: " ... for the next PotC movie." I knew then what would happen, only it was even worse. 4mo

Aimeesue The Bertha thing is so creepy. NO ONE likes the name Bertha as a lovely and mellifluous name. Liar. (edited) 6mo

BarkingMadRead @Aimeesue it is 💯 messed up. So gross and super passive aggressive 6mo

Aimeesue @BarkingMadRead so controlling. Red flag! Red flag! 🚩 Sigh. Too late. 6mo

Bookwormjillk I keep confusing Rochester with Max DeWinter. We keep reading about these messed up men who believe themselves to be victims. 6mo

Librarybelle I was so confused when the narration kept changing. Admittedly, this one is a bit of a struggle for me…I feel like I‘ve not found a good rhythm yet with the writing, and we‘re near the end! 6mo

mcctrish @Librarybelle I keep wondering if I‘m the crazy one because WTF is happening 6mo

5feet.of.fury The Bertha thing, separating her from Christophine… husband is a creep. Wish the zombi got him 6mo

mcctrish @Aimeesue Bertha is brutal 6mo

5feet.of.fury @Librarybelle yeah, I do not get this one. I read through 2 pages & had no idea whose POV or what had happened. 6mo

Librarybelle Glad I‘m not the only one, @mcctrish @5feet.of.fury 6mo

IndoorDame @Bookwormjillk This actually does remind me a bit of Rebecca in the sense that all of the characters are unreliable, but there‘s still something about all of them that draws you into their worlds when they‘re the ones talking, and the whole place is intoxicating and bordering on fantastical. 6mo

willaful I continue to have no memory at all of having read this.

I'm furious and disgusted with Rochester. He's totally yellow-wallpapering Antoinette. 6mo

willaful @Bookwormjillk yup! 6mo

Clare-Dragonfly I still don‘t get why Richard wanted Antoinette to marry Rochester so badly. She had plenty of money, she could have lived independently! @IndoorDame Yes, I was also reminded of Rebecca, and you‘ve articulated why very well! 6mo

BarkingMadRead @Clare-Dragonfly I wonder if he just didn‘t want to feel responsible for her anymore? She would have been fine by herself, I don‘t know why he felt the need to marry her off 6mo

julieclair I am so disappointed in Rochester. He used to be one of my book boyfriends, but now he‘s off the list! 6mo

TheBookHippie Sorry I bailed. Too much life going on to read this darkness. 😵‍💫 6mo

BarkingMadRead @TheBookHippie you do you! No judgement here! 6mo
