panI assume this book is a metaphor for domestic abuse? If I look at it through that lens I like it ok. If not, then I really didn‘t. Characters are irritating, whole story line is boring, nobody evolves. I wish the bear was interesting in some way. If you don‘t want to read it, the mom dies and the sister gets eaten by the bear 🤷♀️. To be honest, I legit lol‘d at that second one 😆
pickI was so bummed to not finish this in time during #CampLitsy and therefore was thrilled to see it on @monalyisha‘s #AuldLangSpine list; will now have to go back and read the discussion that I missed! I found this very emotionally engaging, and the writing had me vividly picturing characters, setting, and scenes throughout. Have the film rights to this been purchased? 🤔 Would be great on screen.
pickI went in with expectations a bit too high because i just gave her last book (tagged below) 5⭐️ in the Fall. This book deals heavily with suicide as about half of it is a woman trying to write the correct suicide note to her friends and family. Some reveals in the second half 🤐 negatively changed the way I saw the characters, and I think that contributed to this being a more mid-range pick. I do want to reread knowing what happens at the end.
pickAdding the paperback to the wishlist, even if there isn't a cover yet! One I think I'll want to read again.
Frieda said, "Don't make me laugh, it hurts." She was so sick.
Shelly began to make a real dent in the stack of old Time magazines in the doctor's waiting room. She kept asking him if her mother was dying, and he couldn't really say. "Well, is she living?" she asked once, and he couldn't answer that either.

4.25 stars. Another perceptive Emily Austin stunner! This time she offers a different story framework from her previous books, which I think was pulled off beautifully and expanded the dimension of the sisters‘ relationship. Her writing touches my heart and makes it ache in a very particular way. #BOTM
YES! My Book of the Month Box arrived today, which helped with the post holidays depression! 🤭💕 I'm absolutely starting the Austin book first! I love her writing so much! #botm
pickI‘m not sure how this one got on my radar. 3 sisters are witches and run a tea shop telling their customers fortunes. They get enrolled by the head witches to help 3 witches find their task in life. They have to finish their task to not turn into ghosts once they die. The 3 sisters at the same time are following their passions but not sharing it with each other.
