A message from a dead woman ... Equal parts smart and smartass, reporter Leah Nash is rarely at a loss for words. But when she receives a cryptic message from a nun asking for help, just hours after the woman's body is pulled from the river, Leah is stunned. The dead woman was on staff at DeMoss Academy, a residential school for troubled kids run by an order of Catholic nuns. Leah's self-destructive younger sister Lacey had died there five years earlier. The nun's note and an old newspaper clipping attached to it propel Leah into a search for the truth about her sister's "accidental" death. But it's a mystery no one wants her to pursue. Not her publisher, who orders her to stop making waves. Not the director of DeMoss Academy, who's concerned about the school's reputation. Certainly not the politician's wife worried about Lacey's connection to her husband. As Leah starts closing in on the real story behind her sister's death, someone starts closing in on her. And just when she's got it all figured out, a shocking revelation changes everything.

Daisey Good answer for number 1! 😂 6y
Alittlebookworm 1. In my bed, under a warm blanket.
2. I have a magnet bookmark. But sometimes i just grab whatever i can find to quickly mark where i left off for a short time.
3. I have a hard time stop reading. Especially if it‘s reached at a climax
4. Oh yees! I always munch on something while reading.
6y
Alittlebookworm 5. Yes, sometimes I listen to music while reading
6. Usually one book at a time, and the reason for that is that once i start a book I don‘t stop until I finish it. And it usually takes about half a day for a 400 page book.

Alittlebookworm 7. I mostly read at home but I always have a book in my bag in case i get a chance to read 😁
8. Reading silently
9. Sometimes when the suspense is so big my eyes automatically skip ahead and without meaning to i spoil it for myself 😅
6y
Alittlebookworm 10. Breaking spine??? Noooo.
11. So some may not agree, but i like to underline my favorite thoughts from the book, so that whenever i open the book later i can find them easily and re-read them.

Alittlebookworm Sorry for the many comments, couldn‘t fit it in one 😅😅 6y
RaimeyGallant @Alittlebookworm Such great answers, and wow, you're a fast reader! 6y
[DELETED] 3803335244 I stop wherever too! Usually I start falling asleep, lol 😂 Thank you for the tag ❤️❤️❤️ 6y
SilversReviews LOL...love your answer to the first question. What will we do when they make waterproof books and e-readers? :) 6y
Lupa08 Haha! Your answers are hilarious. Ok, I'll give it a go and try to keep it honest; already wary of some of them 🤕 Thanks for tagging me! 😅😂 6y
Readingun96 I like to stop on pages that are multiples of 10 (40,50,60.. you get it), or wherever I land when I fall asleep😂 6y
Mrs_Organized_Chaos 1. You will find me reading in the bathtub (every night), in the recliner or my bed, and I listen to an audiobook while headed to and from from work. 2. Whatever I have handy, it could be a bookmark, scrap of paper, or the flap of the book jacket. 3. If I stop it is usually at the end of a chapter. 4. Depends on what time of day it is. 5. Generally, I don‘t listen to music while reading. 6y
Mrs_Organized_Chaos 6. Multiple books. Audiobook for at work, physical book for at home, and sometimes an ebook. 7. I read any chance I get so everywhere. 8. Read silently. 9. I tend to read fast and skip sentences as I go. 10. I have been known to break the spines of paperbacks, never hardback. 11. No, I make notes in my journal. 6y
RaimeyGallant @Mrs_Organized_Chaos Audiobooks during commuting sounds delightful. 6y

I USED TO FINISH EVERY SINGLE BOOK EVEN THOUGH IT EXCRUCIATINGLY BORED ME TO DEATH BUT NOW I HAVE LEARNED THE ART OF DNF...ITS SO LIBERATING... #readinghabits #itsoktodnf #somanybookssolittletime

Viji All the same for me except I never write in books. The older I get, the more I bail on books I'm not that enthusiastic about. Life's too short! 7y
IMASLOWREADER i write on my books all the time...the more writings on it means i was really into it lol...yes you are right about bailing on books 👍 7y

I'm finally subscribing to a boookish box - Page Habit! I chose the historical fiction and cannot wait to see what they've chosen. And to read the annotated book. 👏🏻📚🎉

Jess_Read_This So neat! I'm super curious what you get! 7y
ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled Very tempted to do this!! Their annotated books have been really fun. 7y
kalinichta I'll be curious to see what you think of the box. 7y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Jess_Read_This @kalinichta I'm curious also. The biggest draw was the narrow niches they use and the annotations! 🤞🏻🤞🏻 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @ErickaS_Flyleafunfurled Join me! I'm glad to hear your good feedback on the annotations. Thanks. 7y
LeahBergen This sounds intriguing! 7y
Reese_Pearly.Pages I chose the mystery box- I didn't want to do literary fiction because I already have BOTM. 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @LeahBergen I couldn't resist! 😜 7y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Reese_Pearly.Pages Makes sense. This is my only box so I picked one of my consistently favorite genres. Hope you enjoy yours! (edited) 7y
