Girl Underwater | 
so-soThis book has some flaws but overall it is decent. I didn't like that we are told right away that Avery and Colin get rescued from the plane crash. It took away from the suspense and urgency when the author was talking about them being stranded. Some of the flashbacks got confusing too.
pickI finished this within 24 hours. Trauma, survival, healing, and just the right amount of romance are perfectly interwoven in this book. I love the switch between past and present(and it‘s so well done that there‘s absolutely no confusion with the constant switches).
pickThe narrative alternates between the fight for survival after a plane crash, & the fight for survival after the rescue. On the one hand, I couldn‘t put it down. I liked the author‘s writing, the plot, & the scenes out in the wilderness, but there were some large, unexplained jumps in the plot, the MC‘s after rescue internal strife made me scratch my head at times, & some of it just didn‘t make sense. I really enjoyed it, but it needs a good edit.
Has anyone read this? I'm almost done but need to know if I missed a couple things or if it's the book - it's driving me crazy. 🤯🤯🤯
Awwwww. Next up on my list of books with Girl in the title. I see iffy reviews on this one, so we shall see.
so-soHmm. Well, I'm really on the fence with this one. I almost want to call it a pan, but I never wanted to quit, so I bumped it up. I wanted to like this book. I just couldn't get past the many implausible details and the forced love triangle. And the kids? They just so willingly let these complete strangers take them away from their (dead) parents? This was definitely a rough one.
The past week has been rough. Time to settle in and escape into another world for a couple hours. I've got my comfy clothes on, ice cream, one of my cats, and my #kindle. This is my happy place.
Started this last night. Didn't notice the interesting reading juxtaposition of starting it after Ask The Passengers. Ask The Passengers sort of just jumped off the library shelf at me. This is why I like to let fate handle my reading list...because serendipity is quite entertaining in literature. Hmm, come to think of it, even The Elon Musk book had flight in it.

#somethingforsept day 11: Blue books! The whole process of searching for and finding the blue books was rather calming. I have even more but I woke the baby up 😁so I had to snap the pic real quick! Maybe later I'll post all my blue books from my TBR shelf!
pickUnputdownable! I love a good survival story, and then coupled with "what happens after" and the twist of will-they-won't-they... I was hooked! Caution: do NOT read if you have a plane flight coming up! So good!
pick4.5⭐️ Beautiful debut novel by Claire Kells. Nineteen y/o swimmer Avery have what seems to be a perfect life. Until one day, her red-eye flight crashes into the cold water. As one of the only 5 survivors, along with three young boys & Colin, her teammate, we follow her emotional journey through the wilderness and the aftermath. Beautifully written story of survival, love and healing 💕.
panUggggh if this wasn't my #bookisholympics book one, I would have bailed but I ain't a quitter when I'm going for gold😉 I think I'm in the minority but I found Avery, the main character whiney and unrealistic. I thought there were numerous flaws and holes in the plot and the entire read felt disjointed. This was not a winner for me👎🏼But I'm one book down😀
Coco has been my constant companion today. Mostly I think it is because she is scared of the cat. #24in48 #readathon
pickAn emotional account of a plane crash and the wreckage left behind. I hung on every word.
