Need a #kindle book for dark nights so will try my final spin for #readyourkindle
@CBee
bailedBailing at about 120 pages.... I may return when my mood is lighter but I'm not reading much this week because I don't want to read this right now.
#readyourkindle @CBee
Insomnia alert ⚠️
Sleep Not Found 🙄
4 am emergency #readyourkindle new title started. Inadvisable cup of tea also accessed ☕😜
@CBee
I am switching to the fourth book for #10beforetheend this weekend.
The Underground Railroad has been fantastic so far and deeply moving, but I just can't with any more white supremacist filth this week, even in a book like this. 💔💔 I will return to it soon.
@ChaoticMissAdventures
bailedBailed at 50 pages. Super creepy striking idea but the writing style is not for me and a quick look at reviews for the rest of the trilogy looks like the resolution is patchy.
#readyourkindle @CBee
Next #readyourkindle for this month. Another #kindleunlimited title I've had kicking about.
@CBee
pickLow pick crime procedural and my first completed for #readyourkindle this month. This is a first of 3 so far all on #kindleunlimited and I may give the second one a go.
CW for extreme sexual violence. Also several sex scenes attempting to be explicit but fairly pedestrian.
@CBee
My heart goes out to all of you in the US and elsewhere who are still reeling 💔💔
Word lovers will appreciate Susie Dent.
Have to switch away from my physical book as it gets dark.
Starting this #kindleunlimited read tonight - one of my #readyourkindle choices
@Cbee
pickI took my time over this and enjoyed it hugely. A slight dip in the middle for me - maybe just a little bit bloated and drawn out - but Atkinson remains one of my favourite authors.
My #readyourkindle selections for this month. Lol just realised I switched nos 5 and 19.....oooops 😜
Hoping I can get to all of these @CBee
October 2024 reading wrap up. Enjoyed almost everything this month, with one major dud that was a bail.
#slowreader
Here is my November list for #readyourkindle
I'd love to read all four of the chosen numbers if I can.
Well... I'd love to read all 20 but that's not likely as I am a #slowreader
@CBee
3 out of 4 for the October #readyourkindle ain't bad!
I can't read The Winter of The Witch until I've completed the previous books in the series - Doh! 🤦
#kindle
@CBee
Spotted this on a random and otherwise somewhat depressing social media scroll....
so-soThird book for this month for #readyourkindle
Okay this book was frustrating. It is older then I realised so no doubt some research has moved on significantly. At times fascinating, at times subtly patriarchal (mostly he's progressive) and occasionally preachy.
As a carer for someone with dementia the very detailed breakdown into subsections of the 7 stages of it was sadly super accurate and informative I suspect of what to expect next.
@CBee
panI got to page 120 but I have to bail.
This started off somewhat intruiging but it is oddly lacking in substance... The "weirdness" just feels vague and kind of trite. I'm so bored, I'm out!
Sadly this was Book 2 of my #10beforetheend
@ChaoticMissAdventures
Next up and this has been on my shelves untouched for far too long.
This is a #buddyread and is the October choice by the #literarycrew
@Librarybelle
A couple of #99ponkindle deals available today.
Picked both of these up after watching a recent YouTube video from CriminOlly https://youtu.be/C1Zq3Rf6Q0I?si=QcjwC7cjX9WYeI40
Next up from my October #readyourkindle choices.
I just realised this book was published in 2010 so it may be a skim read or a bail depending.
@CBee
pickThis started as a So-So for me and I laboured to get through the first 50%....then the writing and the narrative came alive and it finished really strong. So a low pick overall but with high hopes for the next book in the trilogy.
#kindle
pickThis is just a low pick for me, though I am years over the target age range for this.
Nice easy, flowing writing style and felt like a YA version of the movie What Lies Beneath.
Could have shaved the length a bit and that would have made the narrative a bit tighter. I guessed the surprise character reveal very early but that's okay.
Book 2 for #10beforetheend
It's so stormy and dark in Central Scotland this morning, so I need #abookandacuppa
@ChaoticMissAdventures
so-soBook no 1 from my #10beforetheend picks.
This was gearing up to be a pick but I found a couple of the latter chapters sketchy and sadly lacking. Still enjoyed the earlier chapters on media moguls which is clearly where O'Brien has the most knowledge and experience
@ChaoticMissAdventures
I don't post much off-book content but my reading is about to get compromised as season 2 of The Devil's Hour is finally out today. Highly recommend.
I loved the first season and loved Peter Capaldi since Local Hero and seeing him and his brilliant wife Elaine Collins in The Tom and Sammy Jo Show at the Glasgow Tron Theatre in the 80s.... Plus I don't care what anyone says, 12 was my favourite 😉
Next physical book - on Fridays I like to have a quick, easy and hopefully entertaining read I can whizz through on the go!
These are my planned reads for today.
I am also fighting to resist temptation of a colour eReader now #kindle have released one.... I'm more tempted by a Boox or Kobo device still...but trying to hold out as sure the tech will improve with further iterations.
#abookandacuppa
I'm so happy it is candle season at last.
Next physical book from my TBR.

#abookandacuppa
Starting a bit of non fiction... Not expecting any new revelations I wasn't aware of but sure having it synthesised into one place is going to get me #raging
Part of my #10beforetheend list so I may be a little early but wanting some non fiction on #kindle today, as it is so dark and dreary here today.
@ChaoticMissAdventures
#10beforetheend
A truly rubbish PicCollage for my 10 book choices to finish before the end of 2024....but at least I haven't thrown my phone at the wall. I chose to give up making it look better instead 😉
Looking forward to all of these. One (The Secret History) is a reread but it was a decade ago I read it and it sailed though without making much of a dent, so will be like new.
@ChaoticMissAdventures
Next paperback starting tonight
#currentlyreading
For some reason I put the second book in this series in my #readyourkindle choices.... So need to read book 1 first lol
@CBee
Next up for #readyourkindle
I've seen a lot of love for this book but must admit the tag line of "A classic coming of age love story" doesn't really appeal. Finger crossed it is ???
@cbee
Be still my happy geeky heart to find this random TNG reference in a modern thriller 🤟

My selections for October #readyourkindle
I think I will start with You Shouldn't Be Here tonight. I'm a newbie to the tag list so not sure if there's any expectation on the order you read them in over the month?
@CBee
I am joining the new cycle of the Losers Club with my first read of #Carrie. I had to buy a new copy and I like these new editions but 🤮 the fake sticker printed on it. I had no idea this was such a short book!

Joining in on the #readyourkindle tag - hope that's OK! It looks like a 20 book target list.... So here is mine..... Complete with tippex because I put September, not October 🤣🤦
@CBee
Starting this while I wait for a friend.

September wrap up.... A good reading month in part as I was in bed with flu for a week or so.
Next up. I've seen this described as a kind of reverse Narnia set up. Hoping for a Friday comfort read.
I've just noticed the publisher, who I've never heard of or noticed before is called Chicken House, which I'm finding oddly hilarious.
