Year One | Nora Roberts

Pickpick

The first pages of this book read as if it had been recently written. It really shows how much we have not learned from our past. It shows the ugly that can happen if people do not learn how to come together. It shows the stupid things people do when they are afraid especially when they are afraid of someone different from them. But it also shows the good, the love, the laughter, the connections that can be made when people come together.

So I have decided that I like audio books! I have a 30 minute commute to work each day, so I started listening to the book instead of the radio. I knew my limits at home, and would read the book instead of listening to the audio. Worked out great for me. I'm sure some of you all have been doing this for a while- I'm just a little late to the show lol! But I did enjoy this book much better than the Host. It was a surprisingly good read!

Bookzombie Yay! Glad you are enjoying audiobooks! 6y

ReadingRover No problem. It was so funny when I was shopping for the Assassin‘s Creed Dorb. I have a 17yr Old I mentor and I was like you play video games you have to know what the good ones to get are and that‘s like the one game he doesn‘t play!!! 6y

I have always enjoyed reading fairy tales and fables. This graphic novel series has been a very enjoyable read! I must say the Big Bad Wolf, aka Bigby, has become my favorite character. I have even started playing the game based off of him called "The Wolf Among Us" ?

Eyelit I love Fables! So many great characters. They even did a graphic novel adaptation of the video game 😀 7y
