This book kinda got weird. Kinda interested to see where it goes though.

I read this for the ATY challenge prompt #8 2 books relating to the same topic. I only rated it 3 stars. It took me forever to get through but I found once I got halfway I got more into it. #aty2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
I learned a lot about him from this book. There were some parts I wasn‘t interested in. He didn‘t sound like a very nice person when he was off of the stage. In a way I kind of wish I didn‘t read it because now I‘ll think of all of the bad parts now when I see him on the reruns.
I couldn‘t put this book down. It was like her It Ends With Us book. It Ends With Us was a little better but not by too much. So far I like the subject matters that she writes about. This only my second book of hers that I‘ve read. I read for the ATY prompt 50-a book that includes a journey. #ATY2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
I thought this was pretty good. There were some creepy parts in it and it was fun to wonder what happened to the prior teams that went into Area X. I read it for the ATY challenge prompt #1-a book that was nominated for an award of my choice. #ATY2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
I loved how this book was told from the child‘s perspective. It made the horror of the Holocaust that much more horrible. #aty2019 #aroundtheyearin52books I read this for the weird or intriguing title prompt.
I thought this was a fun thriller. I read it all in one day. I couldn‘t put it down. It was Hitchcock like. My gut twisted in suspense at a couple of parts. I may have jumped once while reading it. I did guess a part of it but I think you were supposed to at that point. I read for aty prompt 41 goodreads choice awards. #ATY2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
I‘m glad Bill O‘Reilly narrated it. There was one in his series that he didn‘t. This book wasn‘t as good as Killing Kennedy, Killing Lincoln or Killing Jesus. I did learn a lot though. I rated it 3 stars. I didn‘t read this for any of my challenges.
This book wasn‘t as good as I thought it‘d be. I thought there were too many characters and it skipped around a lot. The main characters I liked though. I ended up rating it three stars. It was a good book and nice to read something different. It just won‘t end up being one of my favorites. Read it for prompt #30 a book featuring an elderly character. #ATY2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
I read this for the ATY challenge prompt #20 - a book featuring indigenous people of a country. I picked a small book for their prompt because I didn‘t see anything that interested me. For being a short book the characters were really well developed. I was interested in it as far as to figure out what happened to him but the book was a little too dark and edgy for me. #ATY2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
Had fun finishing this today. I learned a lot about the Queen. I read it for the ATY challenge prompt #34 a book with a person‘s name in the title.

The book started out as a quaint book. It was easy to read. The last quarter to a third of the book, it just got weird. I‘m also not sure what to think of the ending. I read it for the ATY prompt - a book about books prompt #12 #ATY2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
I read this on a whim. Dennis Quaid was the reader and I‘m not a fan of his voice but he actually did a really good job with it. I haven‘t read a thriller in awhile and it was a nice break from what I‘ve been reading. It was a fun book and I wanted to finish it so much that I read the last few chapters in the physical book. I read it for ATY prompt book with a mostly black cover. #ATY2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
This book just didn‘t interest me enough. I liked her writing but I just didn‘t care much about the characters. I feel like I‘m in the minority on this one. I read it for prompt #47 a book related to food. There were oranges on the cover so I went with that. #aroundtheyearin52books #aty2019
I can not recommend this book enough. I listened to the audio and it kept me on the edge of my seat. Great book! I ended up using it for the around the year challenge prompt #39 a book with a strong sense of place Buck‘s Peak was definitely a force in the book. #aty2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
I read this for the around the year challenge in 52 books for prompt #36 a book featured on the NPR best books of the year. It had a good premise but wasn‘t executed all that well. You could see where society could get like this though with social@media. It did keep me turning the pages. I‘m still going to put it as a pick. #aty2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
I liked the writing of this book. I enjoyed how the author wrote in kind of rambled sentences like the characters. There were some funny parts in it. Although I did like it, I didn‘t like it as much as I thought I would. The book was a little hyped. I read it for prompt #13 for the ATY challenge-NY public library staff pick. #aty2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
I guess I was comparing it to The Fault in our Stars. And Everything, Everything and it just didn‘t live up to those for me. It was a cute story and I did learn about cystic fibrosis reading it. I read it for the ATY challenge prompt #22 - a book with a number in the title. #ATY2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
I picked this up at the library without knowing anything about it. I thought her story was interesting and you could understand her reasoning for being super morbidly obese. It was pretty candid.
I liked this audio. I learned a lot about her. I‘d recommend it if your interested in the royals.
This was a cute little graphic novel.
For something fun on a Sunday.
This was a good easy read. A little fluffy for historical romance but I did learn some things. I read it for prompt 10 of the ATY challenge - A book featuring a historical figure.

It took me awhile to get into. Towards the end of Part 2, I started to care what was going on. There was a lack of world building in my opinion. I read this for the around the year challenge - prompt 7 - 2 books relating to the same topic. #ATY2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
Did this as an audio. I wasn‘t thrilled about the reader but he wasn‘t bad either. Some parts I zoned out on but I did learn a lot from it. Did this for the #ATY2019 challenge - prompt #51 A book published in 2019.

So I wanted to like it more. I thought it would‘ve been creepier. I read it for the ATY challenge prompt #23 something old.
#ATY2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
Fun way to end my Sunday! Her books make me laugh out loud!
I really liked the science fiction part of this book. I enjoy the different format as well. I did get a little confused in spots but I was trying to get to the ending quick so I didn‘t take as much time to understand it as I should have. I read it for prompt 26 for the ATY challenge. #aty2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
I‘ve bailed on this. I picked up the audio CD at a library sale. The reader was so boring that I didn‘t pay attention at all. I might try and pick it up some other time
I wasn‘t a fan of the plot twist. #aty2019 #aroundtheyearin52books read for prompt 5 relating to Shakespeare
I really enjoyed this. My first audio for 2019. I enjoyed learning about this mission. Lots of interesting information on the astronauts and their wives.
This was a fun little graphic novel. Some of the cartoons I could really relate to and made me laugh out loud. Fun for a Saturday. It was fun to read with my cat...
I‘m bailing on this one for now. Just not what I‘m in the mood for at the moment.
I thought this was really good. Some things I thought weren‘t clear because maybe some world building was missing but I loved how it all came together. I read this for the ATY 2019 prompt #40-a book you stumbled upon. #aty2019 #aroundtheyearin52books
I loved the details about the war and I loved the prose. However I liked part 1 much better than part 2. After awhile I did get a little bored with the letters. I thought it could have been a little shorter like 84, Charing Cross but then a little more on the love story. All in all a great read though. I read for #38 of around the year in 52 books. A book not written in the traditional format. #aty2019 #arountheyearin52books
So I started listening to this one. It really hasn‘t interested me. I‘m switching to another one. I haven‘t decided if I‘m bailing on this.
This was my first read of 2019. It was a great way to start the year. I even had some nightmares while reading this book. I wasn‘t a complete fan of the ending but it could have been worse. I followed it up by watching the movie. Of course the book was better but I did like that the movie was different because it kept me guessing.
