Definitely listen to this Audio!

This Razor-sharp psychological Thriller with a contemporary infused setting, was not at all what I expected. It was so much more, it grabbed me form the get-go and didn't let up until the very end.

Mixing the amnesiac, mind-game vibes with the media-obsessed true-crime-podcast created an unique story, brilliantly narrated by January LaVoy and Will Darmon

I struggle with this one.

I didn't connect with any of the characters, in fact I kept thinking that if it weren't for Kyle (who I hate, by the way) this whole story wouldn't exist.

The slow pace, character driven plot just didn't grab me like the Farseer Trilogy did.

However, I understand that Hobb develops her stories over time, and I can see a lot of potential in this trilogy and its importance in the overall Elderling series.

Enchanted_Bibliophile @PuddleJumper I know I'm way behind on the #RealmOfElderlings timetable, but I'm going to try my best to catch up before the end of the year. 2w
Ruthiella Kyle is despicable. But there is good character development in this trilogy, especially with Malta IMO. 2w

PuddleJumper Kyle is the absolute worst. He is a catalyst for the other characters and plot but yeah, it's hard sometimes when nearly everything goes back to one character. I've totally lost the plot with where we are! I think this book was for Sep/Oct and last one is Nov/Dec. I'm very behind as well 2w
Enchanted_Bibliophile @Ruthiella I can't wait to see that, she really got the spoiled little teenage brat going strong in this one. 2w
Enchanted_Bibliophile @PuddleJumper Glad to hear it's not just me 😊 2w

This book somehow manages to feel disjointed and yet cohesive. So many topics covered - the pandemic, Native American culture, George Floyd, incarceration, love, friendship, dictionaries. Skillful storytelling.

A very interesting compilation of some lesser known serial killers.

Short, sweet and to the point.

I expected this to be a lighthearted romance, but it was so much more. Yes, there is a sweet (and sometimes very frustrating) romance. But the novel also deals with some very serious and emotional issues. I did think the ending was a bit unrealistic, even though the author‘s note says it was based on real events. Anyone struggling with infertility might want to give this one a pass.

This was my September #ReadOrDonate selection.

Survival Guide for a Wilfully Obstinate Diva

For months, perhaps even years, my mother has been urging me to give Sophia a chance. Now that I finally have, I see that I might have benefited from listening to her sooner.

Not only is Sophia an exceptional writer, creating truly unique and relatable characters, but the topics she explores with such expertise, cleverness and empathy genuinely resonate with one's heart and soul

I loved this book and gave it 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
On the outside, this book is about a paraplegic author writing her first big novel while dealing with her family and herself, and then there are the robots 🤖
