Last night of vacation ☹️ but I had to post as this one was such a good read I could not put it down!! 😭 πŸ’” Imagine your husband leaves on a work trip and never returns home. Years pass, you fall in love again and your husband is found. This was my first TJR book, but definitely not my last. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Finished up my #BookSpin book on our first evening of our getaway! 3 wonderful nights away for my birthday - it has even far too long since we‘ve had a family getaway that wasn‘t to our own cabin. Truly the best way to wrap up our first night was finishing up this Megan Miranda book! The twists kept me guessing and, though it was slow at times, I truly enjoyed how everything unfolded. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1/2 @TheAromaofBooks

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! We took an overnight away last week - sometimes it's just so nice to take a little break!! 1mo

A fun little giveaway by @BennettBookworm ❀️ One of my favorite bookstores is one I remember getting to go to when I was little. Growing up, it was so much fun for me to get to explore this place! I loved to look at the books, but also remember always wanting a klutz activity book πŸ˜‚ This is Books & Co in Oconomowoc, WI. I don‘t live in the area any more so haven‘t been back in many years - thanks for helping me reminisce #20Kgiveaway

BennettBookworm Thank you for sharing! So beautiful to reminisce indeed! ❀️ (edited) 2mo

Had a great Thanksgiving with family - came home that night and went to bed - when we woke up the next morning my husband had chills and body aches. He tested positive for Covid 😩 Praying my toddler and I don‘t catch it. Spending my solo evenings reading while my husband is quarantined in the bedroom 😷 Wrapped up a book tonight so time for a new read! This came recommended by a friend so we shall see! πŸ’•

I truly always try to finish a book when I start it and as a #LMPBC book I never intended this one to be a DNF. I tried to power through but I just could not get into it and could not get past some of the graphic scenes. I am so sorry I could not read this one with you @Jerdencon and @Christyco125 Interestingly enough, I have started one other by this author and also had to DNF it.

Jerdencon Honestly didn‘t love it either - I I‘ve read other of her books but this was my least favorite 6mo

There has been so much going on here that it has been hard for me to focus on reading lately….but when I picked this one up, I couldn‘t put it down. It was different than I anticipated - There were so many twists that I did not see coming 😱 I loved getting the story from different characters points of view and trying to figure out who the β€œbad guy” would be. What a ride! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

MyNamesParadise That‘s good to know! I have it checked out from the library. I hope to get to it soon! 7mo

This one was honestly so disappointing for me. I had such high hopes. It took me FOREVER to get hooked on the story (like until the last 100 pages), but then I stayed up late to finish because I couldn‘t put it down. I did not connect with the characters and kept wondering why there was so much premonition of what was to come instead of anything actually happening ⭐️⭐️⭐️

I don‘t want to say TOO much, but I did not enjoy this one as much as I expected 😬 - I was disappointed in the writing style and how the points of view confusingly jumped around at times - but there were parts I was into and I am hoping my #LMPBC members will find some things to enjoy πŸ“– This will be on its way to @Jerdencon soon!

Any of these sound good for this round @Jerdencon @Christyco125 ?? #LMPBC

Christyco125 I would be good with A Most English Princess or The Postmistress. I think the The Midwife of Auschwitz would be difficult for me to make it through. 9mo
Jerdencon All sound good to me. I‘ll post my choices tomorrow. 9mo
kstadt929 @Christyco125 @Jerdencon I think I will go with The Postmistress then because it is shorter so it will be easier for everyone to fit it into their reading for the month (the other one is over 500 pages) ☺️ Excited to get started ! 9mo
