“If you gave someone your heart and they died, did they take it with them? Did you spend the rest of forever with a hole inside you that couldn't be filled?”

While the author did a ton of research and really dug deep her primary focus was on the deplorable people who call themselves TRUTHERS ( conspiracy theorists) but they are nothing more than troubled, sick individuals who are allowed to spew nonsense - The events at SH were so heinous and then for people to claim SH was a sham is just beyond cruel. My heart broke for the victims families but this book was not the tribute I was expecting. 👇🏽

Cinfhen It was wayyyy too long and the author went on too many side tangents about other hoaxers, conspiracies and debunkers. 6mo

I bolt across the lawn, squinting through the inky black. The streetlamp behind me casts a pool of light, but it‘s weak. Clouds block the moon.

@TheAromaOfBooks @PuddleJumper

Didn't read a lot this month but still had a few wins:
- both spins: Randomize by Andy Weir (#BookSpin) and The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho (#DoubleSpin);
- a #Roll100 pick from back in March: Saints of the Shadow Bible by Ian Rankin;
- a #BookSpinBingo 🎉

A special mention to the tagged book, an emotional, powerful, tough to read in parts fictional account of a school shooting.

Can't believe half of 2023 is gone...

PuddleJumper It feels like we're speed running 2023 9mo
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! Fabulous month!!! And 2023 is RUSHING by!!! 9mo

This is such a tough topic and so many parts were just so hard to read and so heartbreaking. As per usual with Jodi Picoult, there were some twists and unexpected feelings throughout this book. Not necessarily a happy ending, but an interesting one. This book definitely made me think about a lot and it‘s going to stay with me for a long time.
