This book was insane, I actually dropped it as I physically reacted to a scene of horror. (Which never happens)
The characters are extremely unlikable and its a bit over the top, but damn if it didn't get me caught up in a story and entertained by where it went.
What if everyone who says, "Being gay is a choice" are in fact choosing to be straight and suppressing their gay urges and they assume that's everyone's experience ?
13 yr old, 17 yr old, 23 yr old ,28 yr old and 36 yr old me are all equally devastated by this
I will not call this "Aligator anything", no this is Donald's Dachau...the 1st concentration camp established by the Nazi's. They were so proud of their 1st concentration camp that they would have sold merch if they could have too.
If you're feeling hopeless, overwhelmed and like you have no control over any of this...remember calling it what it is , a concentration camp is resistance. Joy is resistance, knowledge is resistance. Resist
I gifted my husband the experience of driving a racecar and officially earned my best wife ever card
I know what her books are & are not. While not peak literary achievement, her characters are relatable and her storytelling is so familiar its comfort for me.
After a breathtakingly shitty few days I needed to let my self disappear into Weiners easy story and the world of the Griffin Sisters
This book is a historical fiction that tells the story of serial killer Ted Bundy from the POV of 2 women in the aftermath. The title is a play on how he was described by judges & the media. The story exams the lens Bundy was portrayed (handsome,bright,charismatic) rather than the monster that he was and the women who were almost denied justice due to sexism ,misogyny and "questionable choices". Great writing and characters added to a great read
I didn't need this book to tell me the type and degree of human garbage Zuckerberg is, but it was eye opening to get such details. Now that I'm done I need a shower
My soul needed this ,it needed to be connected to others, to feel hope and stand up against evil
For everyone protesting tomorrow please be safe, please be smart, please keep your eyes peeled and aware of your surroundings. I know I'm not the only person hearing rumors of agitators and disruptors
...dont let them scare you into sitting out. Signs are done a we are ready
I grabbed this book on a whim at the grocery store for something to read on the beach and it was such a good read.
You are so wrapped up in the characters that you don't realize how well the author has layered in dynamics of systems in this country and how society views who is and isn't deserving of compassion, dignity & chances. The characters are so unlikable, but incredibly fascinating with a surprise ending you never saw coming. Read it!
Books on the beach are always 10 stars
No....girl, say less
Zero stars
I don't know how I feel about the tally marks for my anniversary gift 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
Do I love it or is it too waiting for release ??
Weird ,but my post about buying this book that details just how much of a piece of garbage Zuckerberg is keeps getting taken off my Instagram......can't wait to read
Officially the smallest grilled cheeses I've ever helped make
Enough said
The witch museum looks amazing from here
To be fair I do not know how I feel about this book. It was so much, everywhere, with everyone. While I applaud some of the twists,because I almost always see them coming &while I saw some coming others smacked me in the face.
My issue is that I had no character to root for. There is always the character I support and the 1 I hate and this book robbed me of that. I need to not root for a psycho & I need the character POV to be honest. Who knew
I must confess after watching the movie Practical Magic I found the Aunts more interesting than Sally & Gillian and this entire series proved to be such a satisfying story of them. They were in 3 of the 4 books and for me stole the show.
While the 1st book gave the history of the Owen's family curse this book ended the saga with how they removed the curse.
I will miss reading about my Franny & Jet
With his new song dedicated to Hitler, it seemed a relevant time to remind everyone what Nazi's really are
There is no joy watching every predicted fear come true , there is no smug condescension in saying I told you so as this regime proves that us "overdramatic, doomsday, ridiculous people " were right.
I pray that enough people can and do fight back to stop it quickly.
I spent mother's days picking asparagus & watching The Secret of NIHM with the family. In this moment of fear, violence and uncertainty finding joy is more than an act of resistance, it how we survive this. I hope all my mothers out there had an amazing day.
I hope everyone who doesn't celebrate mothers day gave themselves the gift of small joys and self celebration.
Unless you support Trump, then I hope your day was garbage
I celebrated another trip around the sun with my family getting tattooed together
I have to say the book is very different from the movie, that I adored and inspired me reading the whole series. That being said, it was ok , but has to be my least favorite book in the series so far....just 1 more left
I was obsessed with the aunts from practical magic , and the 2nd book in the series gives you the life and history of the Aunts and it did not disappoint. By far my favorite of the series fo far

Great characters, great writing, good story....it had a little too many elements to it and dragged on just a wee bit...but overall a good book and time well spent
Hey everyone,
Just wanted to let you know that when the secretary of health is talking about "curing " something that is hereditary, not curable & not a disease while saying that it destroys families and anyone with it can not contribute to the economy.......that's eugenics
Living through the MAGA movement necessitates and important reminder:
You don't have to be nice or consider the feelings of shitty people
That is all
While not a fan of the Catholic Church, or organized religion , I recognize and respect how Pope Francis was different. From his stance on climate change, renouncing immigration policies, looking to become more inclusive as well as rejecting the wealth of the papal position & apologizing for past sins of the church & trying to be better.
But, I will forever applaud his last official act being a graceful fuck off to Vance & this administration
It's a 4/20 Easter so praise it & blaze it
