The Lords of Time | Eva Garcia Saenz
post image
Pickpick

Our detective this time is investigating a serial killer that is recreating murders from a best selling book. I generally don't like "books within books", so the fact that every other chapter was a chapter of the fictional book made me struggle at the beginning. I thought that presenting this fictional book as something all the characters love was the author shooting herself on the foot, because it was boring me to death. ⬇️

nanuska_153 Then both stories picked up and I have to admit I got hooked on both and this ended up being my favourite book of the trilogy. In the acknowledgements I saw that this is actually a crossover with a historical saga written by the author years ago, which I thought it was a pretty cool idea as well as very clever marketing that possibly worked with me 7mo

Extra points for thar bein' a map! 🏴‍☠️
I thought this was a funny book, lots of surprises. But the map really topped it off. This graphic novel is really for everybody, it's cute, easy to read, and it has monsters.

#Two4Tuesday by @TheSpineView
@Buechersuechtling Thanks for thinking of me 💐😊
#WednesdayMotivation

No one reads at my family, I dont get to share books or swap 😕 I do sometimes talk about what I'm reading with my son but he reads different genre. My mother asked last Christmas if I'm getting a price for reading so much 😂 so you can picture my situation from there.

Gracias a una amiga decidí cambiar de género literario, solamente estaba leyendo fantasia, amo las brujas, la magia, etc.; y me pasó el nombre de Eva García Saenz. WOW! Son libros espectaculares. Empiezo ahora el ultimo de esta trilogía, que desde ya pinta magia 💙📖💙

Sea Change | S. M. Wheeler

Wow, what a book; and Squidapus isn't just saying that because one of the characters is a Kraken! Lilly lives with two awful parents and finds friendship in an eloquent, friendly Kraken. When he's kidnapped by the circus, Lilly goes on an epic journey to rescue him. But what will she have to give up to do so? What seems to be a modern day Grimm's Fairy Tale quickly evolves into a surprising look at transsexuality and what we lose when we grow up.

Ye_Mighty_Andy_Spare Has Squidapus read The Kraken Wakes? Features giant alien sea tentacley things taking over the world by the twin threats of raising the sea level and coming onto land to snag humans. Apocalypse sci-fi written decades ago 6y
Squidapus @Ye_Mighty_Andy_Spare Oh man, he hasn't. I'll have to look into that one! Seems right up his alley! 6y

I‘m leaving for a family cruise in about two weeks. That means it‘s time to start planning my vacation reading! Above are some thoughts I‘ve had. Feel free to tag/plug any book you‘d recommend in the comments!

monalyisha Also, (& this note is mostly for me so that I don‘t forget 😅) Saga. 6y
hermyknee I haven‘t read any of those, but they all sound great! 6y
Ashley_Nicoletto I adored the second book in the Wayward Children series the most. If you're going to read the first definitely give the second a try as well. 6y

Lizpixie This is nice quirky book about a reality tv family trying to survive after the cameras are turned off. 6y
Lizpixie Can‘t go wrong with some Aussie crime novels like The Dry & it‘s sequel by Jane Harper 6y
Lizpixie This is a sweet magical realism story about the things that end up in the “Lost Property Office” 6y
Clare-Dragonfly I loved Sea Change! 6y
monalyisha @Clare-Dragonfly It‘s been on my TBR forever! But it seemed like a good title to read out on the open sea. 🌊 6y

Pirate Latitudes | Michael Crichton

For bookclub I had to choose a book with pirates this month. I wasn‘t very excited about reading a book with pirates & I think I went into this half thinking I wasn‘t going to enjoy & at first I didn't.

About a 3rd of the way through though I really started to enjoy. There is a few twists and turns, a kraken, storms, treasure, sneak attacks, everything you‘d expect in a book about pirates.
