A little unfocused and rambling at times, but overall a fun adventure with the 13th Doctor. Some people don't like the current female Doctor, but I really enjoy the dynamic of her and her companions. 4 💥💥💥💥

CaitZ Ha - I just finished my S'mores Kodiak cup. I didn't enjoy Jodie's first season that much. The stories weren't that strong, but they're getting better and I like her more. I'll have to check out this graphic novel 4y
RamsFan1963 @CaitZ I think Jodie's Doctor is brilliant, but I don't feel she's been helped with the best writing. The first season was especially weak and unfocused, but it is getting better. I'm still not sure how I feel about the whole Timeless Child thing though. 4y

I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description or reason for wanting to read the book. Some are old and some will be new. Don't judge me - I have a lot of books.

This feels like the Doctor vs every person on the Internet who decided that Doctor Who was “ruined” because she‘s played by Jodie Whittaker right now. And that keeps happening, with everything from Ghost Busters to Birds of Prey, so I was ready for some narrative push back.

Fun story. The Doctor has to undo the bigotry and racism that occurs after her previous visit on a planet with two warring races. Good story about how events can get twisted and used for power.

RamsFan1963 I recently bought this. Glad to hear you liked it, Doctor Who books vary so much from author to author. Some are great, and some you wonder if the author has even watch the show 🤔🤔 5y
speljamr @RamsFan1963 This author got the feel of the new Doctor down pretty well. But I know what you mean. I've preferred ones where they managed to get a solid sci-fi author to do it. 5y

In honor of national tater tots day, dinner is a cheeseburger with pepper jack cheese, mozzarella covered tater tots, and a pear cider.

Cheers @MrBook

Riding out the storm with grilled cheese on Tuscan Garlic bread, french fries, and some Blueberry Peach cider. And a little adventure with Doctor Who.

Picked up this one for a snowy weekend read. It's a good day to sit outside and read, right?

I‘m actually pretty down with a new year‘s special replacing a Christmas one if they decide to shift it in future.

ofbooksandme I like dit even more than the season finale 😍 5y
kgriffith @ofbooksandme yeah, we were actually pretty unimpressed with the finale! This is a lot more dynamic already 😍 5y
kgriffith @ofbooksandme “I suppose we‘ll have to... have a conversation?” 😂 5y

Chelsey Best Dalek episode since the Ironsides! 5y
kgriffith @Chelsey I‘m re-watching from the beginning with my person (not tagging them so they don‘t get spoilered 😋) and we‘ve just watched the first Xmas special. When Ryan pulled his dad in I shouted, “everybody lives!!!” A la 9 in The Doctor Dances 😍😁 5y
Chelsey @kgriffith ❤️❤️❤️ sometimes, just sometimes 😁😁😁 5y

Definitely keeping up my Doctor Who fix. An easy, fun read, I loved this adventure with the thirteenth Doctor and her current companions. Looking forward to the next 2! Bit miffed we have to wait until 2020 for the next series though! 😱

BookwormAHN I'm also not happy about that. 5y
Birdsong28 There is an episode round new year isn't there? 😘 5y
Laura317 There is an episode New Years Day. @Birdsong28 Then we get a long wait. 5y
laurieluna @Birdsong28 just the one, New Year's Day instead of a Christmas Day one (it was sorely missed!) And then nothing else this year! 5y

I have 320 pages combined left of these 2 books and 2 days 4 hours left of 2018. I'm prepped with my wine to plough through the last 100 pages of the tagged book tonight, then tackle Perfume over 2 days. My will is strong...my kids the only distraction 🤣 #icandothis

Catchme_Ridingnerdy Good luck! Kids really are a distraction. 5y
Ms_T You‘ve got this! ✊🏻 5y
Birdsong28 You can do this 😘📚📖 5y
laurieluna @Catchme_Ridingnerdy @Ms_T @Birdsong28 thanks all! Only 40 pages left of the Good Doctor so confident of a finish tonight 🤗 x 5y

laurieluna @TrishB I will do. Its so hard to buy books for people when you can't see what they already have! May be a resolution to list what I already have somewhere, because even I forget sometimes! Hope you have a lovely day xxx 5y
cathysaid 1Q84 is my favorite Murakami. Enjoy! 5y

laurieluna @RadicalReader it's the trilogy of the tagged book. Never read any Murakami before. I also have Kafka on the Shore which I may start with. 5y

I wasn't a fan of Jodie in Broadchurch, so I was not optimistic about her as a pick for the Doctor. But I have been converted. She's brilliant and has just the right energy for the part.

I haven't gotten too far into this book, but I feel like it's got the characters' voices down pretty well. Going to try to finish it up today.

laurieluna I'm getting these for Christmas! 🙌 Look forward to your revew 5y
Traci1 @miralunasbooknook it was really really good. I think it's one of the best I've read, and I've read most of the tie-ins from the 9th Doctor on. Would make an excellent episode. 5y
laurieluna @Traci1 ah brilliant! I've read some of the Capaldi tie-ins and enjoyed them, and I had a few of the old doctor who books land in my hands. I found those to be extremely dated though, especially where women are concerned. Sexist writing seems to stand out more when on a page. 5y

SleepyDragon All I know is I want her outfit. I've never seen anyone on tv so comfortable. 5y
Traci1 @miralunasbooknook I think you'll like this one. It's definitely not sexist. 😁 5y
Traci1 @NeesyBeth I know. And it's definitely easier on cosplayers than 10's tight stripe-y suit. 5y
