NotSurprised

pick

I won‘t lie…this memoir is long & Bono gets a twee too “preachy” at times, but then Bono has been putting out music & working as a social activist for decades!!!!! If you‘re a U2 fan this is a MUST LISTEN but even for those who just enjoy memoirs, music, reflections, poetry, and hearing the thoughts of a global citizen, then you will 💯 appreciate the lyrics and stories shared by Bono. 👇🏼

Megabooks Omg girl, apparently Bono stopped by Parnassus yesterday and they‘ve already sold out of their signed copies! #NotSurprised! 1y

KarenUK We got 3 signed copies, but sold out in minutes…. Staff weren‘t allowed to buy on first day 🙁 @megabooks @cinfhen 1y

Cinfhen That‘s pretty cool @Megabooks @KarenUK im just imaging Bono walking into a bookstore like any regular customer 😍 1y

Cinfhen He‘s a bit sanctimonious but not in a derogatory way @TrishB @peaknit and that‘s the only reason why I lowered my star rating from 5 to 4 stars- he just went on & on &on about his activism🥹 1y

TrishB I‘ll be interested to see what hubby thinks- but we‘ll have to wait until after Christmas 😁 1y

Cinfhen Boo!!! That‘s a long wait for me to hear his thoughts but it‘s SUCH a GREAT gift 🎁 1y

TrishB The in person event is next Saturday and he‘s very excited! I‘ll let you know. 1y

Cinfhen Yay!!! Can‘t wait to hear all about it @TrishB 1y

I told Tilney that if he sprawled over on my leg again (preventing me from getting up for a while) that he was going to become a prop for a Litsy post. And here we are. #notsurprised #catsoflitsy
Happy Tuesday, y‘all 😄

Bored. To. Tears. Perhaps it‘s my looming tbr of books I‘m much more eager to read, but the slow pace of this audio is making me crazy!! The stories just don‘t have teeth- in fact, I think this might be a good audiobook to listen to if you need help falling asleep 😴

SaraBeagle Yes! I really liked Christmas Eve, but the rest really struggled to hold my attention. Glad I went with the library on this one- I would have been pretty mad if I wasted my money. 6y

Pamwurtzler @tysephine that makes me sad too! I‘ve had that on reserve at the library forever! I think I‘ll wait it out though and read it anyway. 6y

emilyhaldi @tysephine @Pamwurtzler I have seen a lot of great reviews so definitely give it a shot! Just to the right time for me I think. 6y

emilyhaldi @SaraBeagle I know, atleast I used an audible credit that my husband has been sitting on for 2 years so it was still "free" ??? 6y

ValerieAndBooks I read an excerpt from this and just kind of winced 😣. Love him otherwise, though!! 6y

Reviewsbylola I‘m still waiting on my library loan but let‘s face it, we all know I‘m going to bail. 6y

nomadreader Read Roxane Gay's review of this one on Goodreads. 6y

KarouBlue Same here! 6y

Mdargusch A cure for insomnia! 👏🏼 6y

Megabooks We couldn‘t be more different. This was a pick for me and TDL was a so-so. #notsurprised 6y

L_auren @emilyhaldi I had the same experience as you did. Glad you enjoyed it @Booksandcooks Did you read this one yet @Reviewsbylola ? 6y

Reviewsbylola Still waiting on my library hold! @L_auren 6y

L_auren @Reviewsbylola eek! I think I saw you‘re down to two... what‘s the other? 6y

Reviewsbylola Extraordinary Beasts. 😬 @L_auren 6y
