pickI read this book as part of #GabyReadsBookTroop (YouTuber) and I concur with their analysis that this is more like a HF because it is based/inspired in a true case but novel is from the victims POV😢It was interesting but sometimes I don‘t know what the author wanted to emphasize, the victims?, the main character? the legal process? In my opinion I don‘t see that integration so well but this is an unpopular opinion.⬇️
pickWent into my favorite used bookshop looking for Deadwood, but came out with a copy of Pete Dexter's other masterpiece. A pitch-perfect illustration of small-town dynamics and repression, and a powerful warning of what happens when you allow evil to linger too long unchecked. Paris Trout is one of the more disturbing characters in fiction, a perfect embodiment of a certain type of paranoid rage that seems to exist everywhere now.
pickThis is a collection of short stories about “despair and desire in the modern day Ireland” (book blurb). As always in my experience, some short stories are better than others. But I can say that what I like in all of them was author‘s writing style to describe the places, so atmospheric. Love the characters voices and love this cover. This the first time I read a book by this author, definitely it would not be the last one 3,5⭐️
pickWe finally finished this one! My husband and I started listening to this last July and will only listen to it during road trips.
Andy Serkis did a fantastic job but it's not easy to listen to this in a long sitting. We found ourselves constantly drifting with this one, which is not good for those who are driving. It was best to listen little by little.
This was a re-read for me but the hubby's first.

pickThis book is #8 in the Interstellar Brides: The Beasts but something like 46 in the entire series. The author gives you enough background that you don't have to read in order but it is helpful. This book is about Warlord Kai whom we briefly meet in book 4. I love all these books. Absolutely, totally fluff but I have fallen for these big, sometimes grumpy, alpha males from the various planets. I love getting to know their story and seeing...
Bag #8 ; the coffee shop? Started Lab Girl, I have this on my TBR bookshelf and I‘m never going to get to it 🤣🤣 so I‘m going to listen to it and give it away 👏🏻👏🏻 #mutlitasking
