Even the Darkest Stars | Heather Fawcett
post image

FINALLY getting to read this beauty! Only on page 38 but so far it reminds me of getting swept up in fairy-tale type books when I was younger. Also gets points for having a really cute first meeting with (I‘m guessing) the love interest. #isntitjustsoprettyyyy #whatsnottoloveaboutthisstory

WOW I haven‘t read at all this month, and I‘m supposed to by buddying up and reading @parttimedomestic s favorites. So I‘m finally getting into this. Figured a graphic novel would be easy enough to get into despite being busy and in a book slump. #freakyfriday

ReadingOver50 Great series 👍 7y
parttimedomestic Yes! Great one to start with! 7y

Welp. So far I can‘t stand Elian and my favorite things are the mermaids—not the sirens, who are what we think of as mermaids in this—and who get very little page time. Fingers crossed this gets better #darnhighexpectations #theresstillhope

The Cruel Prince | Holly Black
post image

Well guys I am really trying, but I think I‘m just not a fan of Holly Black. Despite descriptions of the world and magic it feels very...unmagical as a reader. I think I‘m just not a fan of the fantasy mixed in with the real world. Bleh. Disappointed because the cover is so pretty and it‘s been hyped but there‘s no special prose or attachment to the characters. I‘ll finish it because I‘m curious but no heartstrings are being pulled here

CoffeeCatsBooks Oh, I didn‘t realize that this takes place in the modern world from the description. It is a very rare book that I actually like the mixing. Hmm... 7y
WordlyNerdly @CoffeeCatsBooks it takes place in the faerie world mostly, but the real/modern world comes in once in a while. It has really good reviews so you might like it! 7y
ofclumsywords I just finished this book last night and thought the same thing. The ending wasn‘t bad but it wasn‘t as good as I had hoped 7y
IheartYA I attempted the first chapter but couldn't continue. I'm not into fairies. A few of her other books are good. 7y

ReadingRover 😆stuff like that always happens to me.Then I put other books on hold & I get moved up the list in about a week then they all come in at once. 😆 it usually happens with audiobooks that are like 16-20 discs long. People get them then reconsider when they see the size. That‘s what happened with A Little Life. 7y
WordlyNerdly @ReadingRover Haha I would be one of those people who bit off more than they could chew and return it early 😂 7y

WordlyNerdly @JanuarieTimewalker13 😱😱😱 whaaaaat. Did you like it? I‘m sure it‘s a little weird to someone new to it! 7y
JanuarieTimewalker13 I love Bowie. It was a bit weird, however. I just remember taking a photo of the screen to show my friend Jeannine the girl who is in it (forgot her name)-spitting image of her when she was a teen...that‘s all I really remember, except to me, the dancing was a bit too close for comfort between a girl and and older guy, but maybe I‘m over-reacting. Did anyone else notice that? It was kind of icky. But maybe I‘m remembering it incorrectly. 7y
WordlyNerdly @JanuarieTimewalker13 I know what you mean! But I think fans don‘t see it as a middle aged guy and a young teenage girl, but The Goblin King who isn‘t a specific age and a blossoming young woman. If that makes sense. I do think it‘s one of those movies that‘s very different to grow up with as opposed to watching it for the first time as an adult 7y
JanuarieTimewalker13 I agree. The adult in me is protective of the young girl, I guess. I have to revisit the film. 7y

Illuminae | Amie Kaufman, Jay Kristoff
post image

MY LIBRARY IS AMAZIIIIIING!!! I had to narrow it down to these babies #happysigh #soexciteeeddddd Has anyone read any of these?

EchoLogical I loved Illuminae! It's very teeny bopper meets space drama. Not a literary masterpiece by any stretch but super entertaining. I thought the format was really cool, especially on audio with the full cast. 7y
EchoLogical Also read The Winner's Crime and didn't care for it but I think it's fairly popular. 7y
WordlyNerdly Thanks @EchoLogical! I just read the first one in the Winners trilogy and loved it, fingers crossed I‘ll like this one 7y

ErikasMindfulShelf I really liked Dark Matter. 7y
WordlyNerdly @irre I‘m excited about that one, I love multiverses and that kind of thing 7y
Linear Illuminea loved it, reading it with the audio is epic 7y
shadowspeak17 I read Dark Matter and thought it was just okay, but I know a lot of people like it. 7y
WordlyNerdly @Linear I‘m not a huge audiobook fan, but I‘ll have to give it a try since you‘re not the first to recommend it! @shadowspeak17 Hmm I‘ll hope for the best! There a lot of books that were hyped that I ended up not liking 7y
GBreeden Dark Matter was interesting to say the least! I don‘t read many sci-fi‘s but that was good! Not my favorite though. I won‘t ruin it 😉 7y

WordlyNerdly @starlight97 Is it because you read the book first? It sounded like they made changes that people who read the book wouldn‘t be a fan of (edited) 7y
vividandromeda Oh that's one of my favourite books/series!!! But.. not the movie. I really didn't like it at all honestly 7y
starlight97 @WordNerd33 I think yes, they made big changes that made it feel so far from the book 7y
