Mehso-so

I‘m feeling very underwhelmed by this book.... not much is happening. Does anyone else feel this way? I want to love it, but it just feels like something is missing...

StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego I didn't love it either. Too materialistic for me to connect with. 6y
Reading-In-The-Wings @StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego it just focuses SO MUCH on the details of the amounts of money, and I feel like it‘s unnecessary. I honestly feel like it will work better as a movie than a book... easier to see the wealth than describe it without feeling tedious. 6y
StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego That's a great point. I think you're right. 6y

Just finished Caraval and I am so glad I read it! After seeing all of the hype, and then reading mixed reviews, I put it off for a while. I ended up really loving it and now I can‘t wait for the 2nd one. I think it would make an AMAZING film too.

Wow. Just wow. I can‘t get over how much I loved this book. It was so incredibly well developed, the plot was exciting and cinematic, the characters were diverse and interesting, and the epilogue killed me. I CANT WAIT TILL 2019 TO SEE WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN!!! AHHHHH!!!

I‘m loving this book way more than I expected to! So happy I have a good book to get me through this plague I‘m currently experiencing. Being sick as an adult and having to go to work sucks.

After literally crying in Barnes and Noble because my boyfriend made me stick to my book buying ban, I thought I needed a way to track my progress. So, for every 10 owned books that I read, I earn one new book. I will get through my TBR pile if it‘s the last thing I do!! #bookbuyingban #bookaddict #help

Erinsuereads So glad I‘m not the only one who as cried in a public place (read temper tantrum) because I couldn‘t have a book. 6y
Reading-In-The-Wings @ErinSueG oh girl you are not alone! My heart was hurting!! 6y

julesG That's a good plan. You can do it! 6y
Reading-In-The-Wings @julesG thanks!! I feel like it‘s doable! 6y
Kaye I know it‘s hard to do. I‘m guilty of the same. I tell myself to stop spending money on books when I have books to read , plus a library 10 minutes‘s walk away and several others within 10 minutes drive. Try not to go into a bookstore. That‘s like an alcoholic trying to stop drinking, but hanging out in a bar. Pretty dangerous. 6y
Reading-In-The-Wings @Kaye so dangerous! But this new rule will hopefully help. And it‘s fun to keep track of it this way too! 6y
KateFulfordAuthor @Reading-In-The-Wings “How”, you should say to your boyfriend, “will I find & support new authors?” :-) 6y
Fataleity This is an amazing idea. I don‘t think I could ever stick to it, but maybe I‘ll lessen the ban to five books? 🤣 I am weak. 6y

I‘m done. I bought 5 new books since my ban has ended, and now I am done. New rule is that I have to read 10 books from my TBR before I can buy a new one. But I‘m really excited about these so hopefully it won‘t be too hard.... send positive thoughts 😬

I finally broke my book buying ban!!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻#litsyisthebestUS @callielafleur

JoScho You look so happy! 6y
dgingo Book buying ban?! Does not compute. 🧐😉 6y
Craftylikefox Worth it!!! That‘s a good one to break the ban for! 6y

Reading-In-The-Wings @JoScho I am! Already loving it :) 6y
Reading-In-The-Wings @dgingo I know. It was a struggle, but I got through a lot of my physics TBR pile so it was worth it! 6y
Reading-In-The-Wings @Craftylikefox I‘m really excited!! I‘m not usually a mystery person, but I figured if I wanted to give it a go, I should start with a classic :) 6y
Craftylikefox @Reading-In-The-Wings Agatha Christie is a great one to go with. A just recommended her to someone else too. I really hope you enjoy 😊 6y
Book_devourer Hooray!!!! 6y
dgingo @Reading-In-The-Wings That‘s actually a smart thing to do, as my TBR shelf became a bookcase and now it‘s far beyond that. 😳🤗😉 (edited) 6y
Reading-In-The-Wings @dgingo exactly!! Now that I‘ve broken my ban, I might do something like having to read 5 of the books I already own before buying a new one.... I also used the loophole of the library cuz it didn‘t count as buying a book 😂 6y
Reading-In-The-Wings @Craftylikefox I really like it so far! :) 6y
callielafleur Love this pic!! 😁 6y
Reading-In-The-Wings @callielafleur thanks!! Photo cred to my boyfriend hahaha 6y
dgingo @Reading-In-The-Wings Smart! And such a good idea! I love your “cheat” too. 😂 I might follow your lead on this. Read 2+ books I already own before considering a purchase. Hmmmm.... 6y
