June 2 #VolumeandVocals. Every Breath You Take. The Police. Listening to the lyrics, I came to the conclusion that this guy is very controlling. I used to sing this with the radio, and I never realized what the topic really was. So, I thought of this book. She fought back. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I love Novellas as they clarify one character. They are usually placed in a series before the next book. #SeriesLove2023 @Andrew65 @TheSpineView I also found 3 bingo spots for #ISpyBingoJune @Clwojick @TheAromaofBooks

This Readathon will give me a reason to read this Chunkster. #20in4 #Readathon @Andrew65 My goal is 20 pages, 220 pages, perhaps 20 chapters, as the chapters are really long. @Amiable

Amiable Great book! Are you reading the abridged or unabridged version? (Which is funny, because both are long! 😀) 1w
jamield1993 Very good book, but so long! 1w
LiseWorks @Amiable this is the complete and uncut edition 1w
Amiable @LiseWorks That's the version I read, too. I'll be interested to hear your thoughts! I'm glad that I read the original, but I totally understood why it was later abridged. It definitely needed editing. 1w

This is the last of this series, although there are 3 novellas that I would like to read but can't find. I enjoyed this series.#SeriesLove24 @Andrew65 I found one more spot on #ISpyBingoMay @Clwojick @TheAromaofBooks with great liberty. 😀 By my Libby app, this book has 581 pages, so I consider it almost a chunkster. #ChunskterChallenge2023 @Amiable

Love Letters | Peter Washington

May 19 #MayMontage Letters. After my Mom passed away in 2019, I found a love letter from my dad to my mom, written on August 8 1957. I know it's in French, and was hard for me to read. But the gist was how much he missed her and me when she went to visit her parents. He wanted her to be safe and come home as soon as she could. I was wondering if he was apologizing for something. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I was not too impressed with this book. I managed to get through it and yes, I will probably read the next one because I do what to see what happens. There were times that I felt confused with who was on whose side. I read it for #NSR23 @Nessavamusic to get another bingo. Did get a spot for #ISpyBingoMay @Clwojick @TheAromaofBooks It is book two of the series #SeriesLove23 @Andrew65 @TheSpineView

I took a photo of the edition I read on Libby, where it said 620 pages. Goodreads says 430 pages. I do not understand the reason for the difference. The except for the next book was only 4 pages. #ChunskterChallenge2023 @Amiable

Amiable I wonder if the page counts for the digital versions vary depending on what type size the font is set at? I usually go with whatever the page count is for the hardcover edition when I‘m calculating for a challenge, even if I‘m reading a different format. 1mo
LiseWorks Well, since I usually read from my tablet, I will go with what it says. Although the book I'm reading now is a soft cover and it also has a lot of pages lol. I never ever read hard covers as they are too heavy to cart back and forth 1mo
