Lord of Chaos: Book Six of 'The Wheel of Time' | Robert Jordan

pick

Bk6 of my #audiobook #reread Of The Wheel Of Time is finished. This is the book that causes Rand to start down a dark path. I am desperately trying to get well enough for my sons wedding on Friday, it‘s medieval themed with not just the bridal party dressing up, everyone will be! My dress is hunter green with silver lace & my cape is burgundy lined in silver satin with fur around the hood. I‘ll have to post pictures for sure. My MIL rocks!🤘⚔️🛡

Graywacke Your son‘s upcoming wedding sounds awesome. Enjoy WOT. 3d

TrishB Sounds great 👍🏻 3d

Soubhiville That sounds like so much fun! 3d

East of Eden | John Steinbeck

Ive started #EoE and I can tell it‘s going to be like Jeffrey Archer‘s Kane & Abel and Shaw‘s Rich Man Poor Man. Two books I read decades ago and loved. My concentration is a little off, so I‘m having a bit of trouble tracking all these male characters. Looking forward to our first discussion of Part 1 next Friday/Saturday 6/21 ( depends on my frame of mind 😉) Feel free to share thoughts as you read!!!

Penny_LiteraryHoarders I'm listening to this one right now and I'm completely absorbed. I roll my eyes a lot at the descriptions of women, but the audiobook is fantastic. Great narrator. Perfect. 7d

Cinfhen That‘s good to know!! I‘ll see if Hoopla or OverDrive has the audio @Penny_LiteraryHoarders do u want to join our buddyread?? 7d

ladym30 Lovely photo! 7d

TheNextBook I've had this book on my TBR forever. I'm hoping to get into this summer. 7d

Crazeedi I loved both books you referenced too! 7d

Cinfhen Starting a buddy read, if you want to join us @TheNextBook very informal trying to read about 100 pages a week over 4 weeks. Book is divided into 4 parts, so a part a week with discussion at end of each week 7d

Cinfhen Thanks @ladym30 🌹🌼☺️I used to love those family sagas @Crazeedi 7d

Blaire I read Kane and Abel when I was about 14 and loved it! It was a recommendation by my dad. 7d

Cinfhen I remember reading Kane & Abel because my mom was reading it and she couldn‘t put it down. Maybe I should read it for my #pop19 #ReRead @Blaire

Kane and Abel

4thhouseontheleft Unfortunately, I‘m going to have to back out of the buddy read. ☹️ there‘s just too much going on right now and I don‘t think I‘m in the right head space to reread it this month! Maybe I‘ll try to catch up for Part 2. 7d

Cinfhen No worries @4thhouseontheleft jump in if and when u can 7d

erzascarletbookgasm I just dug my copy out and it‘s quite a thick book! Oh dear.. 6d

Cinfhen It is a bit chunky @erzascarletbookgasm but m hoping I get so absorbed in the story that I don‘t mind the pages....so far I‘m having trouble focusing 🤪 (edited) 6d

mrp27 Loooooved Kane and Able! I haven't started it yet but I hope to start by the weekend. (edited) 6d

Cinfhen It took me about 50 pages before I became hooked @mrp27 @erzascarletbookgasm but once I found my groove I flew through the end of part 1!! 6d

erzascarletbookgasm That‘s good to know, Cindy. I plan to start this weekend. 🤞 6d

Oh what can I say to begin to describe rereading this gorgeous, brilliant, book?
Without spoiling people?!
Well Gen is a sassy pants and the magus is sorta bipolar at timesjk he is just overly suspicious
Sophos was a doll and I loved Pol‘s quiet strength.
Ambiades snickered a lot and Overall it was a fabulous reread! I loved catching the nuances and the neon signs of the ending once you know what it is! Read it. Get pass the 1st 1/2 and it‘s GOLD.

Ms. Marvel Vol. 1: No Normal | G. Willow Wilson

pick

#Hoopla #pop19 #ABookWithSomeoneWithASuperPower While I generally do not appreciate or enjoy comics, I thought Ms. Marvel was well done. Nice illustrations, good characterization, fun plot. Only 3 more prompts left for me!!!

StayCurious I enjoyed this one 1w

KarenUK I read Ms. Marvel for this prompt too! 1w

4thhouseontheleft Only 3 more? Way to go! Which 3? I have 15 more to go, and I plan on reading Vol 8 of Ms Marvel for this prompt! What did you read for the monastery/convent/abbey prompt? 1w

Cinfhen I‘m not doing the advanced @4thhouseontheleft only the 40 prompts!! I have #ghoststory ( which I‘m in the middle of) #reread ( which is annoying) and #publishedposthumously 👇🏼 (edited) 1w

Cinfhen I‘m thinking of reading

Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl

Cinfhen #GreatMinds @KarenUK 1w

Cinfhen It was fun @StayCurious but I don‘t think I‘ll be reading further 😁 1w

4thhouseontheleft I‘ll be using East of Eden for #reread. 😁 Anne Frank would be a good pick for posthumous! I almost went with Emily Dickinson (many of her poems were published posthumously), until I realized my reread of this works for that prompt:

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society

(edited) 1w

4thhouseontheleft I really like the advanced prompts this year. Except for the abbey/convent prompt. 1w

Cinfhen Maybe I‘ll check them out @4thhouseontheleft since it‘s only June. 1w

A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire, Book 1) | George R.R. Martin

“And I have a tender spot in my heart for cripples and bastards and broken things.” ⚔️

Saturday nights that end up with just me on the couch and a big hefty fantasy to dive into are my favorites. Also forever grateful that end of the tv series drove me straight back into the arms of the books! #asoiaf #currentlyreading #reread

Soubhiville That‘s my kind of weekend night too! 2w
