⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ One of my favorite RS books. Haven‘t read them all, but this one makes me want to read the rest

Last night this book (finally!) became available on Libby and I am having the BEST TIME listening to it! I can‘t even describe how much I am enjoying it- I‘m definitely going to have to buy a copy. Horror with a bit of dark humor - I hope the rest is as good as the beginning!

🎡 It‘s been quite a few years, but we love Holiday World in Santa Claus Indiana. We camped at the campground next door, and loved every minute! Especially the free drinks and sunscreen ☀️
🎢 I take a book everywhere I go. I usually have an actual book, plus I have kindle and nook and Libby all on my phone. The actual book is in case my phone dies. 😉

Erin- I received this today and it brought happy tears to my eyes. The kindness of Littens never ceases to amaze me. It‘s like Christmas in July! I can‘t begin to convey how much I love the box you sent. You can‘t imagine how much it will help me! And Misty, thank you so much for mentioning me to Erin. I love this place so much!

I haven‘t been this excited about a book in quite a while. I love a good disaster movie. The more over the top it is the more I love it! And this book looks like a disaster movie waiting to happen. And who wouldn‘t love a book started by Michael Crichton and finished by James Patterson?! I only hope I am not over-hyping it to myself! I‘ll let you know😉

1. Had some amazing avocado toast, and I made it!
2. Got a wordle in two guesses
3. Bought a reading chair and ottoman on marketplace for $30.
4. I got a Nespresso that I have been wanting; used it one day and gave it to my youngest daughter. (Not hot enough)
5. Donated blood 🩸
Consider yourself tagged!
Well. So far this is my least favorite. I have trouble enough keeping track of all of the characters without all the new ones added in this book. I‘m really looking forward to the next book, where all my favorites come back! Still a pick though- I did enjoy it overall. Izzy says hi!

Well, I was in my 20‘s in the 80‘s and appears all I did was watch movies! (Had a couple kids too). I‘ve seen 95 of the movies. Back then it was the height of the video stores era. Anyway, favorites include-
1. ET (I believe ET was the first low priced vhs tape. It kind of changed everything. After that you could actually own the movies!)
2. Poltergeist. Scared the crap out of me.
3. Terms of Endearment 😭😭😭
Oh my goodness!!! What a beautiful package- thank you so much Misty! I feel so undeserving, but I love it nonetheless. I‘ve wanted to read this for the longest time. I‘ve checked the ebook out twice but I keep returning it because I want to read a hard copy! Your thoughtfulness is simply beautiful. Thank you for all the goodies, as well as your patience with me, my friend. 🩷

I only got 26! I thought I‘d do way better than that, but now I‘m in a indie catergory so I don‘t hear a lot from f these. (Think Alice Phoebe Lou and Babe Rainbow). Thanks for the tag @dabbe

I really enjoyed this; but then, I usually do enjoy all of her books. It wasn‘t my favorite though- a bit too much going on. Definitely would recommend.
This book is different from my usual. It‘s about a hospice nurse, and each chapter is about a different patient who she has helped as they are dying. She talks a lot about the things that happen during this time, such as dead family members appearing to the dying patient. It‘s a fascinating look at a difficult job. Being there for the family, making sure there‘s no pain, and being a source of info and comfort for family. ⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️
I know I‘m in trouble when I read the first chapter and I already don‘t like one of the main characters. This was just a meh for me. Twist wasn‘t too hard to figure out. Blah blah blah.
If this were the first Rebecca Serle book I‘d read I‘d say it was wonderful. I love the magical realism in her books, and this is a good one to pull you out of a slump. However I read One Italian Summer first and I loved it so much that this book paled a bit in comparison. While I would read them both again, if you haven‘t read any of her books I adored One Italian Summer.
Jaws
The Silence of the Lambs
The Princess Bride
#ThreeListThursday. Fun question, Denise! There is a movie I saw within the last year that I remember thinking was way better than the movie but I can remember what movie it was!
Starting this one for #authoramonth for April! Thanks Soubhi, for hosting this each year. I haven‘t been doing well on any of my challenges this year so far, but hoping to pick that back up. #AAM
The Mist, by Stephen King. Not the movie. Hated the movie.
Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption by Stephen King
The Body by Stephen King
What can I say?! For a guy who writes some really long books he is amazing with his short stories and novellas!

1. Tagged it. I loved it! I know a lot of people don‘t, but way back when it was my favorite.
2. The Little House Books. I couldn‘t wait to get to the next one.
3. The Goldfinch
Thanks again @dabbe ❤️❤️❤️
There‘s still time to participate if you haven‘t already!
This was on sale for kindle today and since I don‘t have nearly enough to read on my kindle (😳😁) I got it and read it today. Romancy historical fun. Liked the story about a strong woman although I did feel that the romance was a little hollow. ⭐️⭐️⭐️
Received Yellowface from @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks - thank you so much for the book and the goodies! I‘m looking forward to reading this in March with the #litsylove bunch!
Max invited himself into this pic at the last moment. I ywas getting ready to take the photo and he plunked down and posed. He says hey!
Oh, and trying to finished up Groff for #authoramonth !
This. Just this. I seem to have lost my reading mojo. But this I can read!!❤️
Hopefully this link works- lots of free cozies today on multiple platforms.

This is the third book in this series, and the last one available at the library, so I‘m going to have to stop here for a while. It‘s been so many years since I read this series that it‘s like new! I had forgotten that it starts off in the year 2058, so that adds a fun twist as well. The three I‘ve read have helped me enormously this month, as I‘ve had a hard time concentrating the last couple weeks. Great series, which I‘ll definitely continue.
Checked out the first three In Death mysteries and have had the most fun revisiting them. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I saw that a group here was reading this series. I read these, maybe the first 15 or so, years ago, back in the 90‘s and loved them. Thought I‘d reread the first one so I listened to this today. I love a mystery series, and this one is wonderful - takes place in the future and has a bit of romance as well as a great mystery. I may have to continue this series!
I absolutely must have a beverage in the carefully chosen mug or glass. I don‘t necessarily drink it, because I forget it‘s there, but must have it.
Just finished A Clash of Kings, which can be read with either a hot or cold drink. (Wintery books require a hot drink).

Want to play @BarkingMadRead @dabbe @5feet.of.fury @BethM ?!
Starting this today for #authoramonth with @Soubhiville and the rest of the #aam -ers Kind of excited as I haven‘t read this one 😊
Not very often do I read a chunkster like this and then want to immediately follow it up with another one. This was wonderful! I am really enjoying this buddyread @5feet.of.fury Thank you so much!❤️

My new second copy of #thebros has arrived. It‘s a mass market paperback but I liked the cover. As usual though, I will most likely read it on kindle 🤷♀️. Looking forward to it @BarkingMadRead 💙💙
#hashtagbrigade is the only way I will ever get through it!
This book checks all my favorite boxes. A thriller. Snow. Lots of snow. A group of people trapped in snow far from anywhere. Victims, blood, fear. How could it get any better? It‘s like it was written for me. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I love Christmas mysteries. I saw this on hoopla last night and listened to it today. (It‘s only 260 pages). If you‘re looking for a good Christmas thriller this is it. It‘s really a mystery/thriller that takes place in the five days before Christmas. A tragedy from the past is stirred up when a true crime podcaster takes a look at a crime that occurred ten years ago. I loved it!!
#Christmasthriller #cloakanddaggerchristmas
I read this for #authoramonth for November. I had previously read Never Let Me Go and I absolutely LOVED it. This one I had a little trouble starting- I knew it was wonderful and I was enjoying it in a peaceful kind of way. And then I found out it was Anthony Hopkins in the movie and suddenly I was emotionally invested. So I loved it, but I needed Anthony to make me love it! #AAM #November
There‘s a group in Litsy reading the whole set of these books, and it got me thinking about this one. It‘s one of my favorites, and I wanted something wintery, and it did not disappoint. I hadn‘t read it in years and years and I enjoyed myself immensely!
This was my first Barbara Pym book, and I must say I enjoyed it. If you asked me what it was about, however, I‘d have to say it‘s not about much of anything. It is the story of Wilmet, a married woman in the 50‘s who has become bored with her husband and with her very undemanding life. We see her daily life unfold (I‘d be bored too) and her search for her own “glass of blessings”. Looking forward to more Pym treasures.

My friend @Ruthiella is hosting a #CloakandDaggerChristmas - not a huge commitment, and I think this sounds fun! Tag @Ruthiella if you post a list or read one of the prompts- feel free to join in!
I read this in one sitting. Honestly didn‘t think I‘d enjoy a book about a custody battle and there were points where it was frustrating, but this one really drew me in. And I didn‘t see the ending coming, but it was a good one!
