Is there such a thing as an #AntiBookHaul ?
I've taken a deep breath and I'm taking these to my local National Trust second hand book room in order to make space on my shelves for books I want to keep.
(When I say "space on my shelves," I actually mean "marginally reduce the height of the piles of books stacked on the floor," but let's not pick nits!)
so-soI liked that this had more of a storyline and less randomness than previous Oz books. Betsy Bobbin and the Shaggy Man are delightful. However, I was constantly frustrated that the horrible Love Magnet works differently than it did in the past (presumably so it can be defended against), and the nomes‘ personality changes didn‘t stick, other than the king inexplicably getting a new name.
@Sarahreadstoomuch Tag you‘re it! If you want to play, find another post related to the ocean to share.

pickThis was a unique take on this story. While some bits of the storyline didn‘t make sense, the completeness of the girls‘ pack was beautiful. Sad, infuriating, hopeful, and lovely.
“‘He's got it,' he said huskily. ‘He's caught the knack of it now. Not that he's fully honed yet. Drill will make him sharper, but you've made a wise choice for him. The axe is his weapon.'
Verity nodded slowly. 'And he is mine.'”
One of the reasons I love and prefer the Norton Critical Editions of classics is the (hefty) footnotes instead of endnotes. I detest flipping to the back of the book to read them.
Also, rereading this cause I adored it when I read it for a Humanities class.
Edmund remains totally disapproving of the whole home am-dram concept, but when Tom suggests bringing in some rando to join the fun, he's absolutely aghast. The impropriety! Tom also tries to get Fanny to join in, but our girl's morals are iron-clad and she refuses. The same cannot be said for Edmund who decides that joining in himself would be the lesser of two evils and in a total weaksauce move, he tries to get Fanny to absolve him. Boy, bye.
so-soThis wasn't so much a Thriller but a really sad book. I was hoping there would be more nature and survival being described, but it is what it is.
I am still of the opinion that it would have been better with a clearer outline and fewer POVs; Overall, this is a very slow-burn type mystery with a lot of unnecessary padding. The buildup to the ending turned out to be a disappointment. The writing style itself was interesting and engaging. --
