I am seriously considering skipping this month. I‘m interested in a few, but I have a gut feeling they won‘t work for me. Please advise littens, this is serious stuff. 😂
The Lost Apothecary—is this heavy on the fantasy? If so, ima pass.
What‘s Mine—it sounds like it COULD be good, but it strikes me as lacking oomph.
Book Club—again, potential. But it strikes me as chick lit and I hate the cover.
O&N—didn‘t care for Daisy Jones. Is this ⬇️
Reviewsbylola comparison accurate? If so, PASS. As for the thriller, that‘s an obvious pass for me now. I‘m burnt out on BOTM‘s run of the mill thrillers. Also, where tf are the add ons?! I saw some rumblings on FB that they‘re phasing out the add ons and I‘m not happy about it. 4y
Reviewsbylola @Cinfhen @Megabooks @swishandflick @MicheleinPhilly pls help!!! 4y
Reviewsbylola Basically, my thoughts right now are mostly to either take a chance on Apothecary or skip. 4y

AmyG I skipped. If any of the books are deemed great, I can always get them. Nothing thrilled me. 4y
Cinfhen This post cracks me up....I had the same thoughts @AmyG I‘m willing to wait & see what the reviews look like... 4y
Kimberlone I skipped this month. The only one that interested me at all was What‘s Mine is Yours, but I will try to get it from the library 4y
Kangaj1 I am debating. I have What's Mine is Yours from Netgalley to read in March anyway. 4y
MicheleinPhilly I skipped so I am no help! 4y
Megabooks I think you‘re fine skipping. I liked the concept of Daisy (but hated the characters/writing), so I‘m hopeful maybe the characters/writing will be better with o&n. 4y
Megabooks I think you should give it a day or two and think. Just set a reminder in your calendar to skip before the 5th! 4y
Reviewsbylola That‘s why I‘m leaning toward skipping—if I really felt like I had to read one of these at some point, I could just do library. @Megabooks @MicheleinPhilly @Kangaj1 @Kimberlone @AmyG This will be a huge blessing to my #botmbacklogchallenge 4y
vivastory I selected Opal & Nev I also added Betty. I wasn't crazy about Daisy Jones & the 6 but I have hopes for O&N 4y
Megabooks @vivastory 👍🏻👍🏻 4y
vivastory @Megabooks I think that O&N is only getting the DJ&6 comparisons because it's an oral history about rock & roll. 4y
Megabooks @vivastory that‘s what I‘m hoping/thinking. 4y
Reviewsbylola I‘m def looking forward to seeing what others think about it! @Megabooks @vivastory 4y
MaggieCarr The Lost Apothecary isn't fantasy and it's ARC was a 5🌟 for me. 4y
Reviewsbylola See, I didn‘t think it sounded like fantasy, and BOTM has been known to mis-categorize their books (imo). @MaggieCarr 4y
