Here is a stack of #botm books I‘ve read. Show me yours! #bookstack - #readingresolutions 📚

I read #GoodAsGone a couple years ago and it‘s one of my favorite thrillers!

Blurb: “If you love a measured and thought-provoking novel of #suspense, with one eye on character study and one eye on a city‘s conflicted culture, this might just be the next book for you...[This Book delivers with] crisp, unobtrusive writing and well-executed plot twists.”

JillR How did you enjoy Other People‘s Houses? It keeps catching my eye... 6y

Jess7 @JillR - it was a so-so for me. If you search the hashtag #jpbookreview you will find my review of it (spoiler free). Just keep scrolling through them - I read it in April I think. 🤗🤗🤗 6y

Good as Gone | Amy Gentry

Thanks for the chance to win the #Beloveds! AmyGentry is one of my newer favorite authors of #Psychologicalthrillers and I loved this debut #GoodAsGone. I also really like these authors Gillian Flynn, Lisa Lutz, Paula Hawkins (one of them), Gilly Macmillan, Ruth Ware (some of them), Kate Morton, Mary Kubica (esp. #TheGoodGirl), BA Paris, and more! #ReadingResolutions - #LitsyGiveaways

ReadingSusan, Jess7

Alfoster I love all those authors as well😍! 7y

Jess7 🤗🤗 @Alfoster 7y

ReadingSusan That‘s a great list. Thanks for entering! Which Paula Hawkins did you like? 7y

Jess7 I liked The Girl on the Train. I read it before all the hype and loved it. Into the Water was just so-so to me. @ReadingSusan but I think there are many who felt the opposite bc of the hype. Have you read Paula Hawkins and did you like either of the books? 7y

ReadingSusan @Jess7 I read The Girl on the Train right after Gone Girl and that made me not like it. I liked Into the Water more but didn‘t really love it either. 7y

Jess7 I think several people feel like that. I actually read Girl on the Train first. I watched the Gone Girl movie before reading the book. @ReadingSusan 7y

Scarlett_ohara I've never heard of Amy Gentry but I did love Gone Girl, Girl on the Train, Into the Water and am currently reading Sharp Objects and enjoying it. 7y

rwmg I've read The Girl On The Train and would have bailed after the first chapter if it hadn't been a book club choice. Sharp Objects was also a book club choice, OMG what a depressing bunch of people in that book. 7y

Jess7 Well it sounds like you and I may not like the same type of psychological thrillers. That‘s ok @rwmg 7y

Jess7 Awesome @Scarlett_ohara - you should check her out. I really liked it. I read it last spring on vacation along with The Perfect Girl by Gilly Macmillan. 7y

Good as Gone | Amy Gentry

✨I bought #goodasgone by #amygentry at a library book sale over a year ago. I still haven‘t read it. 😂 I‘m so terrible. I buy so many books and it takes me ages to get to them. I know I‘m not the only one with this issue. QOTD: About how many books do you own that you haven‘t read yet?✨

Kappadeemom Over 100 🙄 7y

jpmcwisemorgan Um I don‘t even know that I can count them because there are so many and it would take so long. 7y

thegirlwiththelibrarybag Well over 100 😂💜 7y

Pruzy I have the same problem...or skill...because I am getting great books for amazing prices! 7y

AngelErin @Kappadeemom @jpmcwisemorgan @thegirlwiththelibrarybag @Pruzy I have over 300 I‘m sure lol!! It would take ages for me to count also, but I would like to see just how many for sure one day. Haha I am always getting books for great prices too. My book collection is out of control! 😂😂😂 7y

thegirlwiththelibrarybag @AngelErin, I have heaps of unread ebooks, which I don‘t count 😂 🥂 here‘s to out of control book collections! 7y

AngelErin @thegirlwiththelibrarybag Lol! I don‘t count ebooks either. Oh my, then it would be worse. 😂 Yey! Out of control book collections! 🥂 ♥️ 7y

Reviewsbylola Great picture! I love Sinful Colors. And to answer your question—more than I‘m willing to count. 🤣🤣 7y

ErikasMindfulShelf My Goodreads account says 620 books I own but haven‘t read yet 🙈That‘s not counting ebooks. 7y

AngelErin @Reviewsbylola Thanks! Me too, they‘re so cheap. 🤪 Haha, I haven‘t had the courage to do an actual count myself. It would take ages to do that. But I kinda want to just to find out an actual number lol. 😂😂 (edited) 7y

AngelErin @irre I can‘t even add in ebooks on this one! It would be even more outrageous. 😆😆 7y

Jess7 I loved this book!!!!! I own about 400 ish kindle ebooks I haven‘t read yet. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 7y

AngelErin @Jess7 I can‘t wait to get to it!! That‘s a lot. 😊 I have NO IDEA how many ebooks I own. 7y

Jess7 Haha I only know bc i add them to a list on Goodreads when I buy them and Goodreads gives me a total 7y

Jess7 I loved it so much — I wish I had a copy of it so I could share it with others! 7y

AngelErin @Jess7 I use Libib to scan all the books I own. But I have never added in ebooks. (edited) 7y

jpmcwisemorgan I‘m going to go with at least 1000 because most of the physical books I own I haven‘t read, and that‘s two bookcases worth at least. And I own more than 1000 ebooks and I definitely haven‘t read all of them. That‘s why I‘m not gonna count them. 7y

Eggs Love the colors in your pic 7y

AngelErin @jpmcwisemorgan We should all just not count ebooks. 😂😂 7y

AngelErin @Eggs Thank you! 💗💛 7y

jpmcwisemorgan Excellent. I support this decision. 7y

I just finished #GoodAsGone and I am so glad I finally picked it up off my #botm shelf for my #TBRBingo. This story had me hooked at the first chapter. I enjoyed how the story unfolded and the writing (for the most part). I was guessing right up til the end what really happened to Julie. Very good. Would definitely recommend. 🌟🌟🌟🌟

#BookReview #InsomniaAndBooks #FavoriteGenre

Great pick @Liberty!

Jess7 Hey @MinDea do you want to co-host a buddy read with me for this one? #TheHateUGiveBuddyRead

I am really enjoying #GoodAsGone! I am pretty certain i will stay up late tonight to finish it. I need to know what is going on! Tonight for dinner we made homemade tortilla chips for oven baked nachos with a side of homemade salsa. Yummy!

Up next, #GoodAsGone, a book for my #TBRBingo. Will only be my 2nd book for it. I don't think I am doing very well with it! I keep getting distracted by all these #BuddyReads on here or trying to get through books I said I'd read this month. I hope this is a good quick read!

MinDea @Jess7 have you read this? 7y

Jess7 I loved it! I read it on vacation. Very quick read! @MinDea (edited) 7y
