High Noon | Nora Roberts

An intriguing read about hostage negotiations and other interesting situations.

The Liar | Nora Roberts

I can‘t find anything I don‘t like about this read… when you have a difficult situation do you crumble or do you get up and tackle the problem… this shows how to make decisions that (although you didn‘t create) resolve those problems. Enjoyed every word

Chasing Fire | Nora Roberts
post image
Pickpick

This was a fascinating and informative read. I enjoyed the storyline and characters as they developed. There is so many interesting factors that I can‘t pinpoint where to start, but that would be giving away the book, so I‘m suggesting that everyone read this so they can enjoy

Deep End | Ali Hazelwood
post image
Pickpick

I don‘t understand why some reviewers said this was just okay… I really love reading Ali Hazelwood‘s books because they are not just romance but have substance which makes you think and understand different points of view. I really loved this and will always purchase her books as they are always beautifully written

Enjoyed this read, he has other books I love so while it was an adventure it wasn‘t a fast paced one

Last Argument of Kings | Joe Abercrombie
post image
Pickpick

This was a great way to finish a book series… still love the characters and the storyline I hated to see some of them go but overall a great series… I know that he has other books out and I‘m wondering if they are related to these three and who will be included in them. I am looking forward to reading those in the future (as I have to purchase them first)

Before They Are Hanged | Joe Abercrombie
post image
Pickpick

While normally the second book is a filler to expand on the story and sometimes not that well written… I have to say that (although some of these aspects are utilized) this was just as well written and I enjoyed reading this just as much as the first book … this also expanded on the characters and brought more information and interest in what will happen next

Ruthiella Good to know. I read the first book last year. Still need to continue on! 1w
Ddzmini @Ruthiella I‘m reading the 3rd book last argument of kings now I really like how easy it is … it just flows from one book to the next 🤗 7d

Before They Are Hanged | Joe Abercrombie

Why do I really really like Glokta ? Could it be that he represents a quality to understand others through his pain or because he just keeps going even though he‘s in pain??? I keep asking which it is but I‘m really enjoying his character

This has been on my tbr for years I don‘t know why it‘s taken me so long to read it. I really loved the interaction between characters and the storyline. I don‘t know where it‘s taking me but I‘m happy to be along for the ride. I‘ve ordered the next book and hope it comes in today as I can‘t wait to continue with this series

Bette Good to know. I have this sitting on a stack…maybe it‘s time to open it. 👍😊 2w
shanaqui I should reread these at some point! I remember loving them a lot, but the details have faded from memory... 2w
Ddzmini @Bette it‘s worth it 🤗 @shanaqui this one is definitely one I‘ll reread in the future 📖 2w

Okay so I‘m trying this immersion reading I was told about… and rereading nevernight I downloaded the audible and I noticed the narrator said Marius not Adonai … in that book is said his name was Adonai on every line and his sister Marielle … when I looked at my SE it says Marius what am I missing 🧐

Ddzmini @InkedBookworm13 yea it was okay for me I know every book is different for each person there were some pretty funny passages though 3mo
DogMomIrene It‘s been optioned for a TV series. I forget who bought it, but maybe you like the show more than the book. Because who could resist Princess Donut bossing Carl around on screen? 3mo

Ddzmini @DogMomIrene thank you didn‘t even realize I read that many so this year I‘m going to make sure I put all the books I read on a separate shelf so I can actually see the books 📚 4mo
DogMomIrene @Ddzmini Yes, you totally should, especially if your tracker creates the graphic based off how you tag the books. I‘ve tried those shelves that you color yourself on paper. I never keep up with them.🤦🏻‍♀️ 4mo
Ddzmini @DogMomIrene same I had a book calendar from 2017 never used it 🫣 it‘s been easier for me to use the tbr app though even if I‘m rereading a book it will still record it 4mo

I‘ve had to think about my review for this as it is so emotional… I will only say that you have to read it and it is one of the best I‘ve read of 2024…. On this first day of 2025 I‘ve come to the end of this trilogy and can‘t wait to read more books by this author (that I haven‘t read already)
