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. 😉

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😉

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 😭😭😭

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. ⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️

Bklover Btw, this is not a religious book. 6mo

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.

jewright What do you like about The Catcher in the Rye? I love these other two, but I loathe The Catcher in the Rye. Holden Caulfield is just so whiny. 8mo
dabbe I loved teaching CATCHER, and it was a fave when I was in high school. @jewright ... I tried to tell the kids (who usually thought Holden was whiny) to see how fragile he is and that he hates that the world has moved on whereas he hasn't because he can't get over the loss of Allie. That's a reason he lashes out at everything and everybody. My humble opinion of course. 😍 8mo

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.

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 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!!

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.
