SUPERNATURAL

Grave Sight | Charlaine Harris

pan

At first I thought, cool a brother and sister duo hunting ghosts - a bit of a Supernatural vibe.
I truly tried to like this.
The main issue was I did not like Harper at all, she's whiny, self-scented and so needy.
The other thing is the story felt forced, and abnormal. Focusing on unnecessary details, while leaving important issues behind for no real reason other than to prolong the book.

At least it's off my shelf now. #donation

Short #audiowalk today because of the potential for rain, so I didn‘t get much listening in.

Love Will Tear Us Apart | C. K. McDonnell

Another stellar entry in the series. While I'm gleeful to continue on to see how various characters develop further in the next book, I'm also relieved to have certain answers and see certain arcs completed in this one.
As I've come to expect, there are bonkers happenings, heartbreakingly human moments, and some damn creepy shit. 1/?

Robotswithpersonality 2/? A who's who of supernatural beings and conspiracy theory fodder, and moments where giggling hysterically is the only appropriate response.
No sooner did my mind begin drawing certain Thursday Murder Club vibes comparisons than the author made Osman the subject of a 'theory'. 😆
I think if you love both Terry Pratchett and Richard Osman, you should give this series a try. 3d

Robotswithpersonality 3/? I sincerely hope we see Betty again, and loved seeing more of Harnforth. Did not realize I wanted that direction for Stanley, but it adds to my satisfied grinning.
I was concerned the somewhat split narrative would take away from the group dynamic, but there's definitely still smaller group clusters of chaos running about the place, and the earlier segmentation of the team makes the end even better. 3d

Robotswithpersonality 4/4 I am certainly going to follow up on the author's announced existence of a podcast with Stranger Times stories, and a newsletter subscription resulting in free short stories in the same universe, as it will make the wait until I can get the next book via interlibrary loan easier to bear.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I feel like every time I go to sit down and read a book in this series, I end up devouring it all in one sitting. I‘m a big fan of this series so far and can‘t wait to read the next one!

This book was very enjoyable 🥰 There was a lull in the middle but once it picked back up, I couldn‘t stop listening! It was multilayered with so many beautiful messages throughout. I haven‘t read a Hill book I haven‘t enjoyed ❤️

The overwhelming crowds make a visit to The Stanley rather underwhelming 🤷🏻‍♀️

bookandbedandtea Why are there always sooooo many people in Estes?? 3d

TheBookgeekFrau @bookandbedandtea Omg, it was horrible!! The West's equivalent to summer in The Hamptons 😂😂 Saturday there wasn't a parking spot to be found in town. So glad that was when we chose to visit Rocky Mountain state park!! 3d

bookandbedandtea @TheBookgeekFrau Weekends in Estes are generally hideous (I assume as I haven't been there in years- see hideousness!) but RMSP is a delight. Maybe I'll suggest to the hubby that it's time for a visit... if we can bear to drive through Estes! 3d

TheBookgeekFrau @bookandbedandtea As we have discovered!! 😤 RMSP is breath taking, at least the 3 miles of it that we hiked 😂 Unfortunately Estes is a main access point so 🤷🏻‍♀️ Have you ever been to Tahosa Coffee House on the way to Estes? 3d

bookandbedandtea @TheBookgeekFrau I'm glad you enjoyed your time at RMSP! About 3 years ago we did the Bear Lake Loop (easy "hiking" being my speed ?) which was wonderful and gorgeous but the crowds chased us out when we tried to wander through Estes itself. I don't believe I've ever been to Tahosa Coffee House. 3d

TheBookgeekFrau @bookandbedandtea If you'd been, you'd remember! It's an absolutely beautiful stone building that shares property with the Chapel on the Rock. And the views of Longs Peak are just 😍😍There's a stations of the cross hike that we didn't get to do bc we spent 3 hours just taking pictures and staring at the views. Has a very alpine village feel to it. 2d

Black Sheep | Rachel Harrison

Rachel Harrison is fast becoming one of my favourite authors in the horror/fantasy space.Our main character,Vesper,left her family behind years ago .Now in her mid-twenties, she is still struggling in her waitressing job, has no real friends, acts reserved, too straightforward, and a little abrupt/mean, making it hard for her to connect with other people.A very entertaining dark humoured horror read that I couldn't put down. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
