Good. Follows the story of Friends the TV show and how it got made and it's legacy today. Even though it delved into the story of Friends I felt at times the author was just writing synopsis for episodes for chapters rather than telling the behind the scenes story so it took me out of the flow of the book.

Octoberwoman I love Friends, my favorite show. I recommend I‘ll Be There For You: The One About Friends, by Kelsey Miller. Filled with details, anecdotes, backstage stories, trivia, social relevance. Seemed to be well researched, and I really enjoyed it. 3d
Birdsong28 @Octoberwoman Thank you so much for your recommendation but I have already read that book and I do think it's the better one. I love Friends too once I finish all the seasons on Netflix I restart it 😂 2d
Octoberwoman @Birdsong28 Me too! I bought the entire series on iTunes and sometimes I just play episodes in the background while I‘m at work. 2d
Birdsong28 @Octoberwoman It is just so easy to watch. I also recommend the podcast Friends with Friends it is so funny. 2d
Octoberwoman @Birdsong28 I‘ll check it out, thanks! 2d

Good. Switches between Italy in the 1940's and London and Italy in the late 90's. Descriptions of Italy made me feel like I was there as they were described in lots of detail. Full of twists and turns. Full of romance. Thank you #SimonandSchuster for inviting me via #Netgalley for the free proof copy.

Good. Fantasy retelling of the little mermaid. It does start with a very close rendition of the Disney version of the story but once you get past that the story really comes into itself. The middle section is full of filler though as most of the action is squeezed into the last couple of chapters but for a debut novel it's got potential. Can't wait to see how this story progresses as the ending is left open for another book.

Very good. Very informative and interesting. I listened to the audiobook version of this which was read by the author so it added another layer onto it.

Good. Shows some insight into the films that made her famous as well as telling her life story. The first few chapters were hard to read as she came off brash but I stuck with it and it got better.

This is becoming freaky now! I read the lost passenger on the week of the anniversary of the Titanic (even heard some of the film score on the radio as I was reading it) and now I am reading Conclave on the week the pope dies. Not done purposely but it's just so weird that it has happened like this!!😲🤔

Has this happened to anyone else?

Bookbuyingaddict The conclave film 🎥 was excellent 👌 really recommend it 😊 2mo

Good. Very informative and impressive but also important to women to read because it shows how we have evolved. The chapters are done in a clever way as they take an aspect of a woman's life/body function and tell the evolution of that rather than just chapter 1,2 etc. Even though I enjoyed it and it was mainly very readable sometimes I did get bogged down in the scientific language at times.

Good. Nice romantic story. Nice to catch up with characters from the first book. Also I like how they set up the next story/book in the series.

Good. I listened to the audiobook version of this. This was performed by three different women which added to the story and made it come alive and you could tell the difference between them. Follows three generations of Weyward women and their lives. Full of magic and nature.

Got the signed book box option from Tea leaves and Reads bookshop (see link above). Bag pictures are the back and front.

CSeydel I like that even though the link is apparently to “Atmosphere” by Taylor Jenkins Reid it does in fact lead to the Story of a Murder book page (edited) 3mo
