pickIf this ever got made into a movie, Breeda Wool is who I would pick to play Sara. The pacing was very good, I feel like Karin Slaughter gave a couple of the twists up too early. Didn‘t quite have time to ruminate. The character dynamics/relationships were awesome. There were a couple times Sara‘s actions made me frustrated.
1. Alive the Story of the Andes Survivors
2. Snakes on a plane
3. Leaving on a jet plane by John Denver

#lakelife took me a while to start getting into this book, but we are rolling along now. #YA #scholastic #sundayfunday
I like to stay pretty focussed, 1 physical book, 1 audiobook. How bout you? How many books are you juggling regularly? #questions
so-soI can‘t call it a pick, but I read it in 1 day so I clearly didn‘t DISLIKE it. Some of the twists were predictable, some were completely implausible. The pacing is a little off. And (again in Shari‘s work) I didn‘t find any of the characters particularly likable. 🤷🏻♀️
Put the number of the book somewhere! Anywhere! So annoying to think you‘re starting a new series just to figure out you‘ve picked up somewhere in the middle with no clue who all these people are. Haha
1. A Stranger in the House (started yesterday and I‘m about 2/3 the way through. & Stephen King/Peter Straub‘s The Black House.
2. J Maarten Troost‘s Getting Stoned with Savages, it‘s my favorite of his and I reread it on a Caribbean cruise wishing I was doing more adventuring.
3. Watch Me Disappear by Janelle Brown

🌞Working on my tan 🌞 I got a couple pages into this last night, I‘m not far enough into the meat of it yet, this is the 2nd #ShariLapena book I‘ve read and I‘m sensing some common elements with The Couple Next Door. 🧐📚
1. I made nachos for dinner yesterday... they were really good nachos.
2. Ever? Aruba 🇦🇼, but I‘m planning a getaway with my bestie to Atlantic City, NJ and I‘m obsessed right now.
3. Strawberry Shortcake
4. I‘m going to an “Oddities” yard sale tomorrow and running an obstacle race on Sunday at a brewery.

pickIt‘s not subtle. Cantero doesn‘t just give nods to HP and Scooby, but that doesn‘t keep it from being original. Cantero has a very unique style, particularly when describing characters and action scenes. Plethora of twists: Some predictable, but some surprising. Highly recommend.
Leg 1 of my #walkathon #litsywalkathon #audiobooking #stephenking and I unexpectedly came across some bookish art and alpacas! 11k steps before breakfast 🍳

Spent some quality time with #stephenking and #peterstraub this morning on a 3 mile run. #🏃🏻♀️ #spooky #fantasy #fiction #audible #audiobooks my first ever attempt at audiobooking, I have a tendency to space out but we‘re gonna give it a try.
I‘m thinking 25k/10 Miles of running/walking? No clue what that translates to in #audiobooks.
Installed #audible yesterday and downloaded Black House #stephenking for free. Thinking I‘ll put #neilgaiman #GoodOmens on deck because it‘s so topical.

Still 266 pages left in the book I‘m reading, but I can tell it will go by quick. So: thinking ahead - #YA vs #suspense, #booksforgrownups vs #booksforkids #fantasy vs #thriller #braincandy #scholastic #penguin
I thought it was going to thunder storm so I didn‘t make any plans ⛈ but the day is starting off gorgeous ☀️so I‘m making the most of it on my front lawn.
so-soGreat characters but missing the creep factor, nostalgia and the mounting fear that the show conveys. Glad to have more backstory on Brenner and Kali. Stranger Things die-hards only.
