#weirderthanexpected but in such a good way! I was slow to start this one because I felt lost at first, but I‘m so glad I stuck with it! I loved the Harry Potter vibes but it definitely had its own voice. Another great one for #auldlangspine #booked2023#serieslove2023

Scochrane26 I started to love this one about halfway through. 1y
Cinfhen I‘ve heard wonderful things about this book. 1y
TheSpineView Well done! 1y
Andrew65 Love her books. Well done 👏👏👏 1y

Bk8 of #JumpStart2023 & Bk4 of #JoyousJanuary #readathon is done. This was brilliant! Had no clue what it was about, saw it on Waterstones cheap & loved the cover so I preordered it. Glad I did. It‘s a YA(sort of)thriller/horror about a group that meet online & decide to meet irl to play a “game”. Trust me, it‘s really good. #BookspinBingo #Booked2023 #WeirderThanExpected #WickedWords #ISpyBingo #Pantone2023 #BeetrootPurple #NoBuyBingo #ImpulseBuy

Cinfhen Sounds great and maybe one that @Reggie might like 1y
Clwojick I love the cover too! 🕯🧨 1y
Reggie @Cinfhen it‘s weird for all the Ya I have ever read none of it is horror. Lol, weird right? Maybe I‘ll look this up. 1y
Cinfhen Yeah, YA horror isn‘t too typical @Reggie I‘ll be curious to hear what you think 1y

So. Many. Questions!

First book of 2023- strange, touching & quite lovely, but also Eh? Following the death of her father-in-law, piano-teacher Song Yan & her husband move to a new flat, with space for her MIL. Then mystery mushroom deliveries start arriving. And Song Yan discovers how little she knows of her husband‘s past

This would be a fab book club discussion - no-one would agree what it‘s actually about!!

Did I mention talking mushrooms?

Reggie Sounds fantastic! 1y
rockpools @Reggie I‘d love your thoughts on this if you ever read it. Happy New Year, Reggie! 1y
rockpools I‘m doing minimal challenges this year, but I‘m going to attempt to keep up with those I‘m doing (although I‘m a random order as always) so #nobuy2023 @PuddleJumper (this was the most recent book given to me) and #booked2023 #weirderthanexpected. @alisiakae @BarbaraTheBibliophage @Cinfhen Start the year as I mean to go on with this one! 1y

Reggie Happy New Year, Rachel! And good luck on all your challenges. 1y
Cinfhen How are you feeling???? Definitely sounds WEIRD and a little wonderful 1y
rockpools @Cinfhen Knackered and far too much coughing, but otherwise not too bad. Planning on starting new year properly next week, when I‘m functioning more fully! And I love that #CelebrateWeirdosDay is a thing, even if we‘re months away from it 🤣🤣 1y
rockpools @Reggie Cheers Reggie, and happy reading! Can‘t wait to see what bizarre horror titles you‘ll tempt me to pick up this year (even though I never DO get through them 🤷🏻‍♀️) 1y
Cinfhen Hahaha 🤣 glad you‘re on the mend ❤️‍🩹 xx 1y
Knitmaths #CelebrateWeirdosDay I finally feel accepted! Can we celebrate this at the library?!!!!!! 1y
rockpools @Knitmaths Ha! I think we should go all out on this one! 😁 1y
