I had no idea when I requested this audiobook from the library it was nearly 19 hours long. I probably would‘ve skipped it, but I‘m really loving it 🥰 Narration is SUPERB🎧🙌🏻 Chose for #IspyBingo curtain and #52Books September mini challenge #BookBeginsWithProperNoun

BarbaraBB I am not doing the mini challenges but now that you mention them I‘ll probabilities do so next year 😂 (edited) 7mo

TrishB Had this on my kindle for a while! 7mo
Cinfhen I really think you‘d like it @TrishB 😄 7mo
Cinfhen I wasn‘t going to do the mini challenges but then I saw I kind of did without really trying @BarbaraBB I think I‘m only doing #52books and hopefully #Booked2024 next year plus the other challenges on Litsy like #AAM and #BookSpin and of course #TitlesAndTunes 😁 (edited) 7mo
jenniferw88 😍 book is set in my home county, and the author lives in Dorset too! 😍 7mo
Caroline2 This is 99p on kindle at the mo in the uk. 👍 😁 7mo
LeeRHarry Mini challenges? Guess I‘m not doing them. 😏 7mo
BarbaraBB @Cinfhen Hopefully #Booked2024! I‘ll do them all again I‘m afraid (52books, ATY, Pop) and of course #TitlesAndTunes and #Roll100 but not #Bookspin. Might try #AAM. And of course the #TOB! 7mo
Cinfhen Have you read it @jenniferw88 ??? It‘s really good!!! Definitely worth #99p @Caroline2 7mo
Cinfhen There‘s only been a few @LeeRHarry they are usually set around an event/holiday( like Easter in March or back to school in September ) 7mo
jenniferw88 @Cinfhen not yet! 7mo
Cinfhen @BarbaraBB hard to believe we are almost at January !! A whole new year of challenges 😀 7mo
Librarybelle I‘m not doing the mini challenges this year. Maybe next year??? Who knows! I didn‘t realize this book was that long - 19 hours is a nice size book! 7mo
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! 7mo
Bluebird Lol, like @LeeRHarry I did not know there are mini-challenges (edited) 7mo
Megabooks Oh awesome! I‘d been avoiding it due to length, but I‘ve been burning up the audiobook hours this month! 7mo
Cinfhen I really enjoyed the audio @Megabooks and I thought it was a remarkably written debut!! 7mo
Cinfhen I hadn‘t planned on doing the mini challenges @Librarybelle @Bluebird but it sort of evolved organically 😉 7mo

Romantic Comedy | Curtis Sittenfeld

Mehso-so

I like Sittenfeld but rom-coms aren‘t my jam, so I figured this would be a mixed bag for me and it was. I did find parts of it quite funny, but I find the genre predictable in ways that don‘t work for me, and that was true here. I wouldn‘t have picked this up if not for Camp Litsy, but at least I didn‘t hate it!

SamAnne I think I will have the same experience. I might skip it. 11mo
ImperfectCJ I'm not super excited about this one for #camplitsy23 because I'm not generally a fan of Sittenfeld or of rom-coms. But I sort of thought, maybe if the two are combined I'll like the result? 11mo
TrishB I don‘t think I‘ll read this one unless a #99p offer comes up! 11mo

Ruthiella I like a romcom on film a lot more than in print… 11mo
BarbaraBB I am glad it is an August Camp read, I‘ll be holidaying then and I think it will be a perfect beach read! 11mo
batsy I really liked Prep but I read it a long time ago, and I didn't get on with Eligible at all. I'm hoping this one is fun but I'll manage my expectations! 11mo
Megabooks This was a low pick for me. I liked the SNL parts she drew in and Kristen Seih is now one of my favorite narrators! 11mo

Cathythoughts Sounds good 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 3y
Centique Yes! I really enjoyed this one. The Fitzgerald‘s are SO fascinating, Zelda particularly. 😍 3y

Bookwormjillk I just finished this last night. Wasn‘t it good?? 3y
Cinfhen I‘m halfway done @Bookwormjillk and it‘s FANTASTIC 🙌🏻❣️I‘m ENRAPTURED @Cathythoughts @Centique @squirrelbrain Zelda is such a great “character” 3y
Velvetfur Oohh I read this last year for my 'the other twenties' thing! I'm such a fan of that era and the people, I fully agree with you on this one 😁 3y
Librarybelle I really liked this one too! Also gave me some not so nice thoughts of F. Scott… 3y
Cinfhen I don‘t hate Scott yet @Librarylady but I can anticipate things are going to turn 😖I‘m loving the narration @Velvetfur did you listen or did you read??!! 3y
TrishB I shall point C in the direction of this one! And it‘s 99p on kindle 😁 3y
LeahBergen Yes, I liked this one, too! 👏🏻 3y
DivineDiana I also loved this one! Infatuated with her. Reading it allowed me to savor it. Also the author‘s other book was wonderful (edited) 3y
Cinfhen I was going to suggest that C read this novel @TrishB I think you‘ll both love it!!! 3y
Cinfhen I read the story about the Vanderbilts @DivineDiana it was also good but not as good as this one!! Im just riveted @LeahBergen 3y
TrishB Got it for the kindle 👍🏻 C has my kindle on her IPad- she said it will be easier to read those when back at uni. 3y
Cinfhen Yay!! I think she‘s going to love it/ you can‘t go wrong for #99p @TrishB (edited) 3y
Velvetfur @Cinfhen Oh, I read it (paperback), sorry I should have said! I bet an audio version would be great though, I can see that you loved it 😊 3y
Cinfhen Ok @Librarybelle I NOW HATE SCOTT 😉 3y
Librarybelle Haha! It also makes me want to read more about their toxic relationship. 3y
Cinfhen I have about 30 minutes left @Velvetfur the ending is sad and rough 😔😔but yes, I LOVED this audio 3y
Cinfhen Yeah @Librarybelle I wonder how much was real vs imagined/ fictionalized 3y
tpixie I just finished reading a movable feast by Hemingway and then I‘m almost done with a Paris wife about Hadley Hemingway. In both of the books the Fitzgeralds seem to be tragic figures. Maybe I should listen to this next! (edited) 2y
Cinfhen This was such a great book @tpixie I absolutely recommend it 💯❣️ 2y
tpixie @Cinfhen oh! That‘s good to hear! I‘ll have to read it next! Thanks 😊 2y

charl08 Wow, 99p! 3y
Oryx Yeah this one didn't do it for me and I bailed, but lots loved it. But worth a punt for 99p, you might love it 3y
Oryx I think it might be better on Kindle anyway, I read it on audio, and my main issue was tracking characters. Probably easier in print. 3y
Crazeedi @TrishB not as great as her others, but I think worth the read definitely 3y
Caroline2 I loved all her other books so hoping this one is just as good. 👍 3y
TrishB @charl08 @Oryx @Crazeedi @Caroline2 I‘m much more relaxed at 99p! 3y
CarolynM I liked it, mostly for the atmosphere. 3y
TrishB @CarolynM I‘ve liked her others I‘ve read 👍🏻 3y

Series peeps, has anyone read this one? Thoughts?

Tove_Reads Yes, it‘s been read on LibraryThing. Fast read, good mysteries. 4y
TrishB I have the first one on my kindle , but not started yet. Still trying not to start new series until I‘m up to date on some existing ones. She says 🤞🏻🤞🏻 4y
eanderson I haven‘t read the first yet, of course I have it on my Kindle! 🤦‍♀️ It sounds right up my alley. 4y
See All 13 Comments
eanderson @TrishB 😀🙌 I don‘t feel so guilty now. I think I have at least ten books in series that I have yet to start. Not including the dozens of series I‘ve started! 4y
suzie.reads She is meant to be great but not read them yet 4y
TrishB @eanderson you can feel fine with 10! Mine is a lot, lot more..... 4y
Andrew65 @MicheleinPhilly I have been leading group discussions on these on Librarything over the past year. In fact we are due to do book 6 this week. I really like them, I like the lead character, other characters, setting and archaeological link to historical events. Good quick and engaging reads which are well written. @suzie.reads @TrishB @Tove_Reads @eanderson We Read one every few months. Would definitely recommend them. (edited) 4y
MicheleinPhilly @TrishB Gonna file this one away for later. My Sunday morning, had too much fun on Saturday night, no coffee, eyes thought all 23 books were being sold for 12.74. And they‘re not on super sale. 4y
TrishB 😂😂 good job you didn‘t press that buy button! I checked and I gave number 1 and number 23 🤷‍♀️ must have been #99p 4y
rwmg I really like them even if I tend to get Kate Ellis and Elly Griffiths muddled. 4y
MicheleinPhilly @rwmg That happens to me more with tv shows. We watch a LOT of Acorn and Britbox and some of the actors appear in what feels like every single crime show. So it turns into “Wait, he just killed someone??? I thought he was a DCI?” “No, that‘s on Show X.” So then I inevitably have to pause and look at IMDB for clarification. 4y
Suet624 Yeah, what‘s that all about? The same actors all the time. I get confused too. 4y
