The Anatomy of Dreams: A Novel | Chloe Benjamin

I LOVED The Immortalists, & I‘m hoping this will be just as good.
#HighExpectations

Crazeedi Hmmm interested in what you think! 6y

Crazeedi @JennyM will do😉 6y

Bridge of Clay | Markus Zusak

It‘s here. I have it. And yet, I am hesitating. Anyone worried about #highexpectations? Has anyone read it yet?

Gosh. Just do it. Start. Begin. #toberead #verylongbook #verylongwait

ClairesReads I really enjoyed it. It‘s epic, and the style takes a bit of getting used to. But it felt like a real classic Australian novel. 6y

AmyG I just got a signed copy...at Costco. So members, keep an eye out if you want to get this book. 6y

Abailliekaras Yes - all the worries, all the high expectations. I‘m reading it now for the podcast - full of trepidation! 🙄😂 6y

End We Start from | Megan Hunter

#septemberdanes @Cinfhen @Kalalalatja

I forgot to post yesterday. #TheDayAfterTomorrow reminded me of this apocalyptic book by Megan Hunter. It's a very slim book, the writing is poetically weird and the story stayed with me for a very long time.

Today's prompt reminded me of a book on my #TBR. #BonjourMadame

Schnoebs I love everything about that cover of the little Paris bookshop. I don‘t know if I like if more than my version but wow is it a close contender! 6y

Kalalalatja I really wanted to read the tagged book, but I saw so many bad reviews, so I unstacked it again. Maybe I should reconsider? 🤔 6y

julesG @Kalalalatja I read the ARC. At first I thought this was a draft, not the finished version, but then I got it. And although it is written in a strange way, I really liked it. 6y

julesG @Kalalalatja Maybe because of the weird writing. 6y

julesG @Schnoebs It was a total eBook #coverbuy. I'm so shallow. 😁 6y

Kalalalatja I‘m stacking it again! 6y

julesG @Kalalalatja It's less than 100 pages, you'll fly through it. 6y

Schnoebs I wonder if it‘s available in physical copy with that cover. Will investigate lol 6y

Cinfhen I panned the tagged book @Kalalalatja and I'm happy to send u my copy. It just didn't satisfy me #highexpectations 6y

Kalalalatja @Cinfhen well, I can‘t say no to that, thank you! ❤️❤️ But I‘ll definitely keep my expectations to a minimum! 6y

Cinfhen Since my phone is kaput I lost ALL my contacts ~ please email me with your address cindyh666 at iCloud dot com @Kalalalatja 6y

Kalalalatja @Cinfhen just sent you an email now 😘 (edited) 6y

julesG It's probably good to go into this with #lowexpectations @Cinfhen @Kalalalatja 6y

julesG @Schnoebs It must be. It's probably the UK edition or so. 6y

The Great Failure | Natalie Goldberg

I know there are 4 FULL months left to try and meet this goal; alas, I can‘t help but feel like a bit of a failure. What‘s a girl to do, read some picture books? #goals #readingchallenge #highexpectations

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Comic books rule! Try some Saga! Poetry is great too, try Milk and Honey!😉 6y

Smartypants Thank you @Riveted_Reader_Melissa that is a great suggestion! I‘ve loved Rupi since she was on Instagram. 6y

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Smartypants Then check out her second book too

The Sun and Her Flowers

Riveted_Reader_Melissa And I bet you‘d also like Amanda Lovelace.

the princess saves herself in this one

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Sometimes a good quick read, of a completely different type, really helps me meet my reading goals, plus it keeps things interesting. 6y

Smartypants @Riveted_Reader_Melissa this is so true! I have this on hold at the library and it should be an easy read too!

The Poet X

Riveted_Reader_Melissa @Smartypants I‘ll have to check that out too! 6y

Libby1 No! You‘re not a failure! Quality is better than quantity. My book count is quite high so far this year, but I‘ve read some real clangers and have had to bail on a few. Have you enjoyed what you‘ve read? 6y

Smartypants @Libby1 I learned to let go of some I didn‘t like this year—previously I had pushed through but I‘m no longer going to be miserably reading a book when there are so many good ones out there! I read some life-changing books this year; so that itself is success! 6y
