Starting this today :) really looking forward to a bit of nonfiction for a change. I don't often read it.

A brilliant read! Definitely heavy and had to reread a few pages here and there but I'm so glad I finally get to cross this book off my list :)

This has been on my TBR list for years and I finally settled down to read it :) so far, it hasn't disappointed. It's definitely a heavy read and ive had to reread the odd bit, but I'm loving it! About 50% of the way through now :D #1984 #readingchallenge #reading #georgeorwell #bigbrother #thoughtpolice

Sorry for being so quiet recently! Been battling the flu for 2 weeks and then had dental surgery on Friday! Finally finished Inferno! #readingchallenge #reading #books #literature #danbrown #inferno

SamHeartCoffee Sorry for all the health battles! Those can be so draining. What did you think of Inferno? 6y
bibliophagebecky @SamHeartCoffee I really enjoyed it. It's definitely different to the other Robert Langdon books by Dan Brown :) x 6y

MaleficentBookDragon I love that version of the cover. I‘m a big fan of his. I got sucked into Pines and have not looked back since. 6y
RadicalReader @bibliophagebecky what book has come close to being as good as this one? 6y
bibliophagebecky @RadicalReader so far? Nothing this year! Honestly it is a mind blowing book! I highly highly recommend it if you haven't already read it xx 6y

The Princess Diarist | Carrie Fisher

Now, I'm not sure if I just wasn't in the right frame of mind, or it was the book. But I got to page 57/250 and just couldn't get into this book.

I think it's the kind of book that's more suited to be an audiobook so maybe I will see if that exists and try again.

This was an ok read. I'm not a gymnastics fan but saw Simone Biles compete in Rio and she fascinated me. So small with so much power.

The only thing I'm disappointed in, was how slowly the book seemed to progress then all of a sudden she had competed in Rio and it was all over.

I'd have like to have leant more about Simone and her life rather than Completion - Medal - Competition - mess up - competition - Rio - win!

3*

I can't say I fully enjoyed this book. the book is based in the years between Revenge of The Sith and A New Hope and only covers a period of around a month.

The writing was good but maybe it just wasn't my kind of book. I would recommend the book for star wars fans looking for a fix though.

TricksyTails 😍 That mug! 6y

5* - A brilliantly written and emotional story! If you had told me that a book written from the POV of a horse would grip me and I'd finish it in 1 day, I'd have laughed at you!

I fell in love with Joey, felt his fear, pain and joy. I wish there had been more, but at the same time, the book was perfect ❤️

"Nowadays, people know the price of everything, but the value of NOTHING..."

Probably even more of a relevant quote now than it was when Wilde wrote it ❤️

I've loved this quote for years but have never gotten around to reading the book, that will hopefully change in 2018! #TBR #OscarWilde #bookquotes #quotestoliveby #aquoteaday

Is this the best book for learning about suicide and depression? No.

But, in my opinion, it is well written, emotional, engaging and thoughtful. It shows how much one seemingly insignificant thing can impact someone's life so much and the consequence this can have.

I have suffered with depression myself so this book did hit close to home. But it's still recommend it as a short read (took me two days to complete)

JoeStalksBeck I can tell you that @Tiffy_Reads @MrBook @Avanders @jess7 @MaleficentBookDragon @TricksyTails are just some of the great people to follow for book exchanges and challenges 6y
MaleficentBookDragon I agree with you. I think it was well written and felt very true to me. I‘ve only made it half way through the series on Netflix but so far I think the book is better. 6y
MrBook Aww, thank you for the shout-out, @JoeStalksBeck ☺️! 6y

Avanders Hi! I agree re the book... I know the tv series got quite a bit of flack, but the book felt less ... glamorous and frivolous and more important. And thanks @JoeStalksBeck for the shout out!
