Welcome to Litsy!

I remember reading this one some 20 years ago and thinking it was ok with some good character dialogue but on this reread, I see how flawed and in some moments just unrealistic.

Not my favorite of Cruise's work as I don't reread this one often compared to the others but I always had a problem with the Nick, Bill, Quinn angle and some 20 yrs later, I have a definite answer for myself as to why.

#DayDevotedTo #Princess another blast from the 1980s past ! @TheBookgeekFrau Krantz crowded the bestseller lists back then.

I did enjoy the film version of the book.

I decided to pause and try something from my freebies stash before I continue with the Burnished City. THE IRISH COTTAGE‘s pacing put me off at first, but I mostly like the characters and it‘s got great foreigner-in-Ireland vibes so I‘ve stuck with it and I‘m really enjoying it.

ALSO, I stopped at Michael‘s to get out of the rain and found some excellent Hallowe‘en clearance. I shall paint it black and orange.

Half Price Books haul from yesterday. I‘ve been meaning to read First Wives Club for years and now she‘s mine! I also found some Bailey School Kids books. Some years ago I recollected the original series, but now I need the super specials, the Jr. series, and (not pictured) the Bailey City Monsters series too. I used to own more of these but I‘m sure they got cleaned out when I first went away to college a lifetime ago 💔 Ooh and book lights! 🤩

Watched the Netflix series first then I heard that the author allowed them to change a few things. Usually never watch then read but I did like the ending better on the series. Also loved the beach line dance at the beginning credits after episode one…watched it every time!
