Finally finished. I was down to the final hours on my hold. Just couldn‘t sink my teeth into this one. I think I‘m going to have to take a break from C.J. Box for a bit.

Started a new audio. This one is going a little slow but I think the narrator might have something to do with that.

Loved it! A psychological thriller with some truly 😲 moments. Looking forward to more by this author.

Interesting shifts in POV which took me awhile to get into but I loved this heartbreaking story of loss, tragedy and a sister‘s love.

Up next..,

This one was just ok for me. The ending seemed to drag on. I wasn‘t comfortable with the Lukas-Sylvie relationship and didn‘t understand the characters‘ reactions to it. I did like Amy. Her sensibility seemed to be the most realistic.

One of the few books I‘ve ever seen my husband read. 26 years together and it‘s still true. Opposites attract.

Started a new audiobook. A needed change of pace from my usual thriller/suspense. The story sounds compelling.

This one bothered me and I‘m not even sure why. The first part wore on but the second part really set me off. The delusion and obsession of the MC and the result of that was just really hard for me to listen to.

A little more than half way in and it‘s starting to get a little tedious. From the reviews I‘ve read it does pick up in the second half.

Anyone have a recommendation for a good thriller? These two are just. No.

So, I‘m not even half way in and I‘m not sure I can take it anymore. Maybe it‘s the audio but...no, pretty sure it‘s just the story. The whole thing seems so ridiculous. The audio is pretty rough, too, though. Jess‘s POV narration I can take but Dr. Shields? Who even speaks like that?

The only way for me to enjoy mall shopping with my daughter is to buy a book and read.

Happy Saturday, Littens.

And finally, I‘m done. This one too me so long to read. It really didn‘t interest me much until about the last quarter. I did enjoy the historical references.

Found one until my next hold comes in. Thought I‘d already read this but guess not.

I always have an audiobook going so finding myself waiting for one is making me a little nervous.

My reading buddy isn‘t moving until I finish this book. #dogsoflitsy

A little more than half way in and I‘m really enjoying this one. Suspenseful but a slow build up. Everyone‘s got something to hide - but who did what?

Heading to the fair so catching up on some reading on the way.

Well, at least it‘s over. The first two in the series were pretty good but the last two - meh. Unrealistic police procedural action and mediocre dialogue aside, I think it was mostly the narration that brought me down.

Enjoying an early morning read before the day gets started.

From Book Riot on FB today. 🤣🤣

#3 of The Highway Quartet finished and #4 started. This series started out strong but I‘ve enjoyed each book less than the one before. Still...I just have to know how it all ends.

On our way to a little amusement park fun so for the next two hours this one is mine.

After a week of ridiculously hot weather it‘s finally nice enough to sit on the deck and read.

This is one of my favorite books, so I had high hopes for the film adaptation. Sadly, I thought it was one of the worst adaptations I‘d ever seen. Now I‘m going to have to read this again to wipe all traces of the film from my mind.

Haven‘t been in this store for about six months and now it seems to be a daily thing. Once I start...

I‘ve been really good about sticking to my #mounttbr but I just couldn‘t help myself. #blameitonlitsy

On to better things-hopefully. Got half way through The Suspect and just couldn‘t do it anymore.

Started this audio the other day and I‘m having a really hard time getting into it. It might be clearer in print but the shifting POV is hard to follow and the story is a bit dull.

Enjoying the holiday with a good book and my sweet friend.

Waiting for audio holds to be available so decided to listen to one of my favorite books in the meantime hoping I wouldn‘t be disappointed by the narration. I‘m not. Still one of my favorite books. ❤️

I am really liking this. Well-defined characters and intriguing plot. I‘ll be reading more from this author. @Nute I think you‘re going to like it.

Always have to have an audiobook going and this one is next.

Nothing super fancy here. Predictable but engaging enough to make me want to continue with the trilogy. Cody is no Will Trent, though. 😉

Well. First time I can say I‘m happy to be sending a book back to the library. I guess this is a romance-thriller? Guess what-found out that‘s just not my thing.

Perfect morning for a little me time with a good book and good coffee before the day speeds up. Happy Saturday Littens!

Hmmm. 9% in to Mean Streak and not loving it. Any opinions on Back of Beyond? Might try this one instead.

I have barely started this and already I‘m uncertain I can continue with this narrator. I hope the story pulls me in but I may need to switch to print. 😳

Oh my. Favorite book of the year so far. I highly recommend the audio - so well read.

Do you ever get so into a book that you want to Google all the characters to find out more about them and then you realize they‘re not real? Helen Duff‘s narration is so good that I find myself wanting to do just that. Really enjoying this book.

Lunchtime reading not going as planned. I‘m still only on page 11.
