pagà vu
(pey-zhah voo)
noun
1. that feeling when you keep starting the same page of a book again and again and again and again

Mainly because I‘ve been in writing mode more than reading mode, I feel like it‘s taking me FOREVER to read Supernova. I know I‘ve tried to get through page 87 at least a half dozen times. Gah! #Supernova #pagavu #scifi #CAHiggins

It‘s been slow going for me with the second book in the Lightless series. Supernova essentially picks up where Lightless left off, and it‘s been tough remembering all that happened in the first book. Where the first book was a suspenseful thriller, Supernova is all out war. #CAHiggins #scifi #Lightless #sciencefiction #Supernova #ERMadLibs

I started off strong earlier this year with my list of books for this year‘s Eclectic Readers Mad Libs Reading Challenge, but February and March left me way off track. Getting back into it with a book I‘ve been eager to read for a long while now, Supernova. I read the first book in this series during last year‘s reading challenge. Ended up being one of my favorite books from last year, too. #Lightless #SciFi #Supernova #CAHiggins #ERMadLibs

The 10th and final book I‘m choosing for the 2018 Eclectic Readers Mad Libs Reading Challenge is for a verb. I‘m filling it with Radiate by C.A. Higgins. This is the third book in the Lightless series. I read the first book in the series for the 2017 Mad Libs Reading Challenge. Loved Lightless so much, I‘ve plugged in the second and third books for 2018. #ERMadLibs #Lightless #readingchallenge #scifi #CAHiggins

The second item in the 2018 Eclectic Readers Mad Libs Reading Challenge calls for a title that is an exclamation. Tough category to fill, and I even though I looked for a book with an “!” in it, I decided I could certainly justify something as big and powerful as a supernova for this. This is the second book in C.A. Higgins‘ “Lightless” trilogy. #ERMadLibs #Supernova #Lightless #scifi #CAHiggins

My ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review for Lightless by C.A. Higgins. This book caught me by surprise in all the best ways. Freaking loved this book. https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1508674672

So, I'm about three-quarters of the way through Lightless, and C.A. Higgins just revealed the secret mission of the Ananke. I'm not sure if every reader would share my reaction, but I love it! I think this is a great twist, and I can't help but wonder where she plans to go with this. Freakin' awesome! #SciFi #Lightless #CAHiggins #LovingThisBook #ERMadLibs

Since C.A. Higgins references the Laws of Thermodynamics in her novel, I keep thinking about the song, "The 2nd Law: Isolated System" by Muse. #ReadingMusic #GoodSong #SciFi #CAHiggins #Lightless #Entropy #ERMadLibs

I love that even as humanity in C.A. Higgins' Lightless has conquered interstellar travel and advanced to create artificial intelligence, the emoticon still lives. This exchange made me smile and was a nice human touch to this grim story. The intentional shortening of "you" to "u" was also nice. #CAHiggins #scifi #Lightless #emoticon #emoticons #ERMadLibs

C.A. Higgins keeps pealing back the layers on this story, and it's impressive how well she controls this plot without sacrificing character. I picked this book to fill a slot in a reading challenge and wasn't very motivated about reading this book. Now that I'm in it, I think I've found a new author to add to my list of those to watch. #CAHiggins #scifi #ERMadLibs
