Soo I'm reading this book. It's kinda like when I saw 50 Shades everywhere in every bookstore. It always seemed to be there when you weren't looking for it....

This book is poetically written, and even the some of the writing is a bit...idk I guess droll is close enough a word to describe it, it kept me hooked and curious till the end. And what a twist! Now, for a disclosure here, This story does have adultery in it as kind of a main theme. I'm personally not with that, but it made the story that much more complex and characters more real. All in all, amazing read!
This right here couldn't have spoke to me any deeper. "I love you and I am content without you"...it's so profound when you read something that speaks across fiction to your reality.
So, we braught in movies, cd's, vinyl, and books into half priced books to sell. We got $45 worth! We are so proud we purged/spring cleaned the house that we treated ourselves to get more books 😂 sis got three and I got this one that I'm fangirl ing over! Basically gave them their money back, but I think it's a good deal!
Ok, can anyone tell me what could possibly be wrong with Stella??! Is it arsenic or lead poisoning making her look so vibrant & and fixating on blue??? And I'm halfway through the novel and I'm almost certain that Cora might be a tad gay for her friend Martha. The relationship just comes off as more than very good friends...
Guys... I really wanted to like this book, I really did. It took me forever to get through and I'm sad to say that I even sped read through some of the passages. Some parts were worth the read, but the plot was just so choppy and and character development so... I don't know. I'm guessing the word is blunt...
All in all it left me bereft...
Ok so it's dark in this truck so no pick lol but I switched over to this book cuz I was needing a break from 'the last days of magic' I started it maybe a day or two ago and I didn't think I had that kind of reading stamina any more! I ate it up! Plus it made my desire to own alpacas even more acute.. Probably going to reread this thing over and over....
Ok, I consider myself a smart person, but this exchange was lost on me.... I hate when scheming and plotting goes on in a book and I lose track of the plans. I know he wants to launder the money through Jewish bankers, but I got lost with the church giving the confiscated land back??
Right... Because in no way could anyone sack Rome on their own without demonic help... And all the knowledge the celts had that the Vatican did not MUST be given to them by demons & it must be wicked to have know lapse on how the world works 😒 can't stand the history of the Catholic Church. Smh
Books and truck stops with wide open scenery. Does anyone else have some odd reading aesthetic? 😎
"Running his hand over the rough wood he tried to comfort the dying base and roots. He could feel the presence of the tree's ghost, as an amputee feels a missing arm and the sudden, sharp sting of the ax it had suffered."

These are all from my last two trips to Barnes and Noble. I have whole shelves of TBR, but these are the most recent lol
Gonna need an escape from reality since my fav person is leaving for work & don't know when I'll see him again 😢 bring on the fairies...
It was a pleasant world to escape to, but the plot was choppy and ending sort of...anti climactic... Austen deserves all the respect, but this book did a good job at mimicking her stories. Sweet book, but I would have been a lot happier with it if there was less flashback and more plot progression.
Being a passenger in the truck at work lets me get some reading in 😊
Waiting on the German goulash to cook while reading a book I'd only thought was a movie till about a week ago.
My face after realizing that the cliff hanger was deeper than than the Grand Canyon. Next book. Need it like yesterday!! 😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This woman's story has everything that makes me fangirl over the natural world. Adventure, intrigue, true crime, natural beauty, the best and worst in people depicted in one instant, and heartbreak. And all of it is true and rends at your feelings. Her account should be required reading so we know what kind of an influence we have in the world....
I really wanted to like this one. But all I got was confusion. The character's love life clearly was written by a man. It focuses too much on the wrong things. It has promise, but maybe I'm the wrong person to read this...idk. Don't not read it on my account. Decide for yourself...
I almost couldn't read the sequel after how heart wrenching the first one was. I'm glad I did because it gave me a chance to heal at the same pace as the characters. Whew! I'm not a fan of books that make me cry. I avoid them until I can't any longer. This was an emotionally intense read, and I loved every minute of it! Every once in a while, there comes a book that'll rip your heart out, and you'll feel grateful. ☺️
