Excited to reread these books again. I had the first 105 books in this series before a flood. Thanks for taking me to Chapters @Rudis

ashley_liz Hardy Boys are my favourite! I have so many of these books still since my grandparents bought me almost the entire set. 8y

After You: A Novel | Jojo Moyes

Really enjoyed this book. It was of course set after Me Before You, and gave a lot more information about Louisa. Some big plot twists I won't give away and Lou has some tough decisions. I found her lack of drive frustrating at times. But it comes together well and realistically too.

Just back from Chapters with these two books. The Happiness Project is one I've looked at many times, while Girl on Train looks pretty intriguing. I've seen the movie trailer, and want to read it before seeing the movie. Thanks @Rudis for helping me narrow down my stack!

Rudis Just repaying the favour! 8y

Loved this book. Very quirky, and it took a bit to warm to the main character Nancy, but I really enjoyed it. Made me think a lot about books / characters who've been to 'other worlds '. Thanks Rudis for lending it

Rudis I'm glad you enjoyed it so much! 8y

Loved this book. Big fan of the series of course, so I wasn't sure about it. But it turned out to be fantastic. The format of a script works fine. I didn't enjoy the first bit, too much realistic conflict between Harry and son, but it came together really well, very exciting.

The High-tech Knight | Leo Frankowski

Really enjoying this book. An older series, I read the first one and totally enjoyed it. Time travel, and main character accidentally winds up in 11th century Poland. A lot of technical jargon as he builds machines to improve his lot, but very enjoyable.
