#24B4Monday is this weekend and I‘m all in.

I‘ve plans either Saturday or Sunday, but will try to read as much as possible.
Still working on my tbr and will post my books later

For this readathon I‘m donating my reading hours to #TeamStoker
If you haven‘t already signed up for a team, but want to donate your reading hours, check out the team captains posts @TheReadingMermaid or @Clwojick

This is not the tagged book, but the pictured book is the 5th book about Elling.

This is my next read

#Apple #FallisBooked

I absolutely adore Benjamin Lacombe‘s illustrations, and the ones he did for this edition of The Snow White are no exception.

The first book I thought of for #Wicked. A book I‘ve never read and never would have known about if it wasn‘t for Litsy

#FallisBooked @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @OriginalCyn620

Roy is writing #LettersHome to Celestial in this devastating novel about a newly wed couple.

A day late for #Spooktober @Eggs

I know it‘s not a book, but this was the first thing I thought of for #Mask
I‘ve actually never see the film.

This year there‘s two winners for the Booker Prize.

I read and loved “Girl, Woman, Other”, so I‘m happy about this winning.
“The Testaments” is still on my tbr, but I‘ve seen a lot of mixed reviews.

Have there ever been two winners before? Does anyone know?
What do you think of the winners?

Next up.

This is the 5th book in the Neshov books. I‘ve fallen behind since the 6th book came out this fall.

It just breaks my heart knowing that Whitehead was inspired by real events. I can‘t believe people will treat other people and especially kids this way. A must read.

I‘m going to hear Whitehead talk about the book later this month

#WeekendReads

1. Tagged

2. 5 books and 2 movies, but 3 books and both movies will be returned today

3. I never even knew reading slumps existed before joining Litsy. But in periods when I don‘t read as much as I use to, I tend be binge series until I start reading again.

Next up.

I‘ve seen a lot of love for this in here.

On a warm summer night, Jack, Joy and Merry are left in the car. Their mother is going to find a phone along the road to call for help. But their mother never returns. Then 3 yrs pass, and we get to see how the siblings life have changed.

This book really hooked me and kept me reading. I actually read most of it today. The twists and turns just keep on coming and I never knew where Bauer would take the story.

I saw the Joker last night. That‘s one #ScaryClown

I would absolutely recommend this movie. This is the study of a crazy man and Phoenix does a fantastic performance portraying this character. This is not the film for you if you want a lot of action.

#ScreamathonPhotoChallenge

#ManicMonday a day late.

📚 Then There Where None

🎥 Scream

🎼 Scream

Here‘s my answers for #Two4Tuesday

1. I have my physical tbr that I see everyday, then I have one in here that‘s a mix of books I want and books I own and then there‘s the one in my head.

2. I‘m a mood reader so mostly what I feel like reading, but since I started using the library again I also need to think about when books are due back.

Next up

We meet Sara, Elsbeth, Lisa and Penny. Four women with nothing in common except Hotel Global, and a tragic incident that happened there. A talented swimmer, a receptionist, a beggar and a journalist. Together they show different aspects of the modern urban life.

Next up.

If you look closely at the cover, you‘ll see pink cats. I know there‘s no #BlackCat in this book/ series, but the white cat we do meet is very scary.

A novel about Romy Hall. We met her as she is driven out the Stanville Women‘s Correctional Facility, and we get insight into her life in prison and her fellow inmates. We also get the story of how she ended up at Stanville.

The novel offers insight into the life in prison and what the inmates to to pass the time.

#Harvest #FallisBooked

What will happen in a village when 3 strangers arrive?

@Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I‘ll admit that there‘s some years since I read this book, but there must be some #TarotReading at the circus, right?

I visited the House of Literature last night and heard Rachel Kushner talk about her novel “The Mars Room. The novel had just been translated into Norwegian.

After hearing her talk, some tings just made perfect sense. She grew up in the same area in San Francisco that Romy lives in. For me the descriptions of the area had a familiar feel to it, like you can‘t visit and get the same feelings

She also do volunteer work towards imprisoned people

This scene reminds me of “Black Wings has my Angel” and the scene with Virginia.

Dropped by the comic/ manga/ fantasy/ sci-fi store today. If you‘re ever in town, I definitely recommend a visit to the tagged store.

These are the books I walked out with.

I never would have picked up “Blackbird” if it wasn‘t for your review @Lindy

These are some of the books I hope to read in October. In addition are the books that I have borrowed from the library.

I‘m not sure if any of these really qualifies as scary unless starting a 1030 p one sentence book is scary and reading books about the potential consequences of the climate change (Lunde).

Did you ever notice that women can seem common while men never do? You won‘t ever hear anyone describe a man‘s appearance as common. The common man means the average man, a typical man, a decent hardworking person of modest dreams and resources. A common woman is a woman who looks cheap. A woman who looks cheap doesn‘t have to be respected, and so she has a certain value, a certain cheap value.

[p. 24/25]

Next up

I‘m going to an author event on Wednesday where Kushner will be talking about this novel. It‘s probably time to start reading, right?

This is the latest Franklin and Luna, and it‘s not in the database yet.

This one is just as cute as the previous two, so if you enjoyed those, you‘ll enjoy this.

This book tells the story of 12 very different people-mostly women, mostly black. They‘re also mothers, sisters, daughters, friends and colleagues. As the story progress they may be more connected than first believed.

Beautifully written with hardly any punctuations that gives the story a certain flow.

I think this is a story that will stay with me.

My 8th book from the Booker Longlist and my 4th for #ABookAWeek hosted by @TheReadingMermaid

#unpopularopinion I didn‘t connect with this book, and I‘m not sure if it‘s the writing, the translation or me. I‘ve a strong feeling that it‘s me. I put this book on hold 2 weeks ago, in the hope that I would want to know what happened with Sunja and start reading again, but that didn‘t happen. So the book is going back to the library and hopefully I‘ll be in the right mood to read it at an other time.

#womenreadwomen2019

These are the books I read during the last quarter that fits the prompts, and it turns out that I‘ve read more than I thought for #Booked2019

9. There, There
13. Black Leopard, Red Wolf
14. 10 Minutes 38 Seconds in this Strange World
15. If Beale Street Could Talk
18. The Vanderbeekers of 141st Street

Getting a late start on #24B4Monday. I was at my parents for dinner last night, and will do the same today.
So not sure how much reading I‘ll actually do this weekend.
This book will by my tbr for the readathon, and if I finish, I‘m sure all find something else to read.

I finished this on Sunday, but needed time to let it sink, because that ENDING.

In the 1st part we meet Saul Adler in 1988. He‘s hit by a car as he crosses the road, but he gets up and continue his day and future plans as nothing happened. In the 2nd part there‘s a time jump to 2016, and Saul‘s been in another car accident (?) and everything you thought you knew from the 1st part, are questioned.

A book about family, siblings and the truth

#24B4Monday This weekend!!!!

I can‘t wait to read all the books 📚 📚📚📚 and I‘ve started to think about my tbr. I‘ll post my tbr later in the week

THIS. I can so see myself in this, I don‘t know how many times that I‘ve told friends and colleagues that we should celebrate getting older, because the alternative is so much worse.

And I do celebrate getting older, with a month with books as a gift to myself.

Next up.

This is actually one of this year‘s Booker Longlist books I didn‘t intend to read. Then I heard the author talk about this book on Guardian Books Podcast, and that changed my mind.

Then I heard Simon Savage‘s raving review yesterday on his YouTube channel with the same name, and I decided to start it now.

Next up.

I‘ve seen a lot of love for Hot Milk, and I hope this is a good place to start reading Levy. This novel was also on this year‘s Booker Longlist.

This is the first Poirot mystery that Christie wrote, and except for the fact that there are no modern technology here like phones and mobile phones there‘s nothing that indicates that it was published in 1920.

Since I‘m easily fooled, I didn‘t know who the killer was until the big reveal.

Really looking forward to the discussion of this #agathachristieclubR2

So this is my status for #20by2020

I‘ve read 4, and I‘ve currently put Pachinko in hold. I get easily distracted by new books and library holds arriving

#WondrousWednesday

1. 14

2. Neither

3. Rome

4. Hogwarts
