The Drift | C. J. Tudor

pick

My first book by CJ Tudor and certainly an author I‘ll read again. A #DystopianThriller with a clever #twist and plenty of #secrets - initially it was difficult to keep track of the LONG cast of characters (not sure it was even necessary) but once everything started falling into place it all made sense. If you enjoy locked room thrillers this one will keep you guessing. Loved the multicast narration. #NetGalley #NowAvailable

Librarybelle I have one or two books by this author that I picked up through #BOTM but have not read any yet. From the cover I would not guess this is dystopian! 1y

Cinfhen I wasn‘t sure what this was about before I read it @Librarybelle but I think it‘s better knowing less / I saw a few people call this book horror but that‘s not how I would describe this book. 1y

RebelReader There is a TV series called Big Sky that is based on some of his books. (Hulu). I like it, but I haven‘t read any of his books. 1y

Cinfhen Ohhhh, I heard about Blue Sky @RebelReader I‘ll need to check it out and surprise…..CJ Tudor is a female author! I never knew before I googled the author. 1y

RebelReader @Cinfhen Surprise! Another female author! ❤️❤️❤️ 1y

BarbaraBB Is this the one @TrishB has been reading as well? It sounds great! Kudos for listening to it on audio, I always think that‘s so hard with so many different names and characters! 1y

Cinfhen Yes @TrishB just read it too @BarbaraBB I think it might have been easier in print but I like to listen so my hands and body are free to do other things. Sometimes I find reading iTOO STATIONARY 🤪 I think you‘d like this book, B❣️ I was originally hoping to use for #NoricNoir but the setting is never mentioned 1y

TrishB Yes I really enjoyed too 👍🏻 1y

The Frederick Sisters Are Living the Dream: A Novel | Jeannie Zusy

#NetGalley #ARC #NowAvailable I started and stopped this book twice. Hoping the third time is the charm 😉

TrishB You‘re better than me! 2y

Megabooks 🤞🏻 I probably would‘ve given up! 2y

Cinfhen Im glad I stuck with it @Megabooks @TrishB as im more amused than annoyed - it took a bit to adjust to the author‘s tone & style @robinb you were right!! 2y

robinb @Cinfhen Yay!!! I was really feeling the pressure! 😂😅 And yes, I started out annoyed but the amusement won me over. 2y

Elizabeth Finch: A novel | Julian Barnes

#UpNext #NetGalley #Audio #NowAvailable
Lots of mixed reviews- let‘s see….

DivineDiana I watched an on line author event yesterday where Julian Barnes was interviewed about this book. His discussion was philosophical and intellectual. Not certain about the book. Looking forward to your thoughts. 🤔 2y

Cinfhen It‘s a struggle so far @divinediana a little too intellectual for my summertime brain 2y

The Omega Factor | Steve Berry

pick

#NetGalley #AudioARC #NowAvailable

A standalone novel from Steve Berry. Perfect for fans of Daniel Silva or Dan Brown. Conspiracies galore, corruption, religious devotion and nonstop action make for a fast paced adventure. Audio narration was excellent.

The Chimpanzee Whisperer: A Life of Love and Loss, Compassion and Conservation | Stany Nyandwi

pick

Another memoir of triumph and resilience, this time set in #Burundi 🇧🇮 Stany Nyandwi suffered unimaginable poverty and tragedy as the war between the Tutsi & Hutu ravaged his country. But what makes this story really stand out is the ability Stany possess- the gift of “speaking” to chimpanzees. This ability to offer conflict resolution between primates helped Nyandwi use his skills to aid humans too. Amazing narration #ARC #NowAvailable

Cinfhen #ReadingAfrica22 @Librarybelle @barbarabb 2y

BarbaraBB Wow. I already have completed Burundi but I might add this one 2y

Librarybelle ❤️❤️❤️ This sounds so impactful! 2y

Cinfhen It‘s a beautiful story about man‘s will to see the best in all of God‘s creatures/ both human & animal @BarbaraBB @Librarybelle it does get a bit “preachy” at times but it felt genuine. 2y

Cinfhen Also works for #Kenya #Uganda and #SouthAfrica 2y

Unlikely Animals | Annie Hartnett

#ChangeOfPlans #UpNext #NetGalley #ARC #NowAvailable
I LOVED Rabbit Cake by @anniehartnett and I‘m super excited to read her newest book!!
Even though I received an advanced digital copy, I‘ve bought the audio for a full immersive experience 🎧♥️😁

Clwojick

Clwojick Oh! I loved Rabbit Cake too! Excited to hear your review. ❤️ 2y

Cinfhen It was REALLY out there @Clwojick if you like whacky and screwball stories this one won‘t disappoint!! It was a bit TOO much for me by the end 2y

French Braid | Anne Tyler

so-so

#ARC #NetGalley #NowAvailable Families are complicated and the Garrett family especially so. This story follows Robin & Mercy as they raise their three children in 1950‘s Baltimore up until 2020 as their children are now grandparents living through the Coronavirus. This book was a little flat for me. Quiet and completive. I‘m sure fans of Anne Tyler will enjoy this book but I was hoping for more.

BarbaraBB I had high expectations. Sorry to head you were underwhelmed. You‘re flying home today right? Have a safe trip 😘 2y

Cinfhen Yes, my flight is this evening @BarbaraBB it was a great little getaway 💜 2y

KarenUK Travel safe 💕😘 2y

Megabooks I had completely different thoughts! I found this fairly lighthearted. (Maybe that say more about what I‘ve been reading lately??) Anne has her thing for sure - the a large family at various points in time in the late 20th c to now. This was a pick for me because it was easy to read and kept my attention. I think you would‘ve enjoyed it on audio more. (edited) 2y

Cinfhen Im glad you enjoyed it @Megabooks / it REALLY was just meh for me 2y

rubyslippersreads @Megabooks I couldn‘t get past the animal cruelty. 2y

Cinfhen What does it say about me or the book when I can‘t remember a single thing about it other than the Philly train station @Megabooks @rubyslippersreads 😳 2y

rubyslippersreads @Cinfhen @Megabooks Maybe you blocked the distressing cat scene. I certainly wish I could. 😾 2y
