AmyG I enjoyed this one. Maybe because I am from NJ and “know” these people. 1y

JoyBlue @AmyG Good that you enjoyed it! Not sure about the latter . . . you tell me. 😉 1y

BookLineNSinker I loved this book because of all the drama! My favorite type of guilty pleasure read! 1y

Mad | Chloe Esposito

pick

I loved these so much. Mad is the first, Bad is the second and Dangerous to know is the third. I haven't ordered the 3rd yet but I am hooked and cannot wait to see how this story ends! If you like the mafia, italy, a little bit of murder mystery and 50 shades of grey, you will love these! Definitely a femme fatale spirited novel. It would make a killer movie or series! #mad #bad #mafia #italy #twins #femmefatale

Bad Vibes Only: (and Other Things I Bring to the Table) | Nora McInerny

pick

It‘s tough being human. Read my thoughts on this collection of essays here: https://debbybrauer.org/#bad-vibes-only

Cinfhen Ha! I listened to this audio a few weeks ago & while I appreciated some essays more than others, overall I didn‘t find the collection super memorable. So #MoreMehThanYeah for me 🤷🏼‍♀️ 2y

JoyBlue @Cinfhen I love your use of hashtags! 😂 I think I agree . . . I don't know that any of the essays will stick with me. I appreciated them in the moment, though. 2y

Our Story | Reginald Kray, Ronald Kray

#nofemmeber #badselfportrait

A memoir is a kind of #selfportrait right? And Reggie and Ronnie Kray were definitely #bad
This has been on my TBR since watching the movie Legend. Which was excellent IMO. But then I may be a bit biased because #tomhardyisalegend

Cinfhen, Billypar

JennyM Such a good pick! 6y

Cathythoughts I‘m out of this loop ....I don‘t much about them ... only I know they are really bad. the picture is scarey & a majorly good choice .... 👍🏻👍🏻❤️ (edited) 6y

Centique @JennyM thanks! 😘 6y

Centique @Cathythoughts London gangsters of the 50s and 60s. If you see the movie Legend on Netflix have a watch - I don‘t know how accurate it is but it‘s a great “bad romance” “good girl meets bad boy” story. 6y

gradcat Ha ha! I love this “bad” self-portrait...and indeed, the Krays were baaaddd guys! 6y

Billypar I know zero about these gangsters or I think any London gangsters. 6y

Billypar (just the fictional ones from Guy Ritchie films). Now I'm curious ☺️ 6y

Centique @Billypar these guys are super interesting. Identical twins and one of them had a psychiatric disorder of some kind. Uber violent but I‘m fascinated to find out more 😳 6y

Cinfhen Echoing @Billypar never heard of them but their photo has an eerie quality ~ I‘m curious 6y

Inferno: A Novel | Dan Brown

so-so

#okay, so. #This #book was a solid, Dan Brown-like mystery. The usual #realistic tone, with the fictional details attached to #real #life places and #historical #events just #works. What I loved: the suggested solution to the world #overpopulation #problem. What threw #me #off: it was all fake? it wasn't? Wait, no it was? Does it #matter? Interesting: The #bad guys actually won. All in #all, a #good #read.

myers85 I wasn't a fan, mainly because as you said it was all fake. Also Langdon didn't actually accomplish anything. If he hadn't been involved the outcome would have been the same. Shame because I was really enjoying it till all the twists in the final third. 8y
