Just checking in. I tried emailing you about a week ago @Hazel2019 - haven‘t gotten the book yet, have you sent it? Worried maybe something happened on its journey.

@ImperfectCJ @Bianca

Was curious about this one based on the comparisons to House Of Leaves. But it falls far short in that comparison, as they all do. It was a weird little novella. I‘m also curious about the movie which I can finally watch now since I read it.

#youshouldhaveleft #danielkehlmann #novella

I‘m torn between a pick and a soso on this one. This is part of our traveling buddy read so I won‘t say too much other than:
🐈‍⬛🩴🪆🩰

This has also been mailed. I‘m sorry it went out late but it is 1000% on its way. I haven‘t gotten the one I should for the new month yet but the second I do I am diving in to get it out earlier.
@Bianca @ImperfectCJ @Hazel2019

Including this one too. I didn‘t feel like I was reading enough on my kindle but I guess I hit the little baby goal I set lol

My reading goal had been 50. So I surpassed it. But in some way I still feel like I didn‘t read enough.

Did the audio of this since it was only just over 2 hours today while I was driving and doing errands.
Idk what I was expecting from this book but this wasn‘t it. I think it‘s one I‘ll have to sit with for awhile.

This will be on its way hopefully very soon. I‘m sorry I‘m late in sending it. November wasn‘t kind to me in the least. I did email everyone the other day, hopefully you all got it. @Bianca @ImperfectCJ @Hazel2019

#outtake from the photo earlier. Leo really wanted to help and by help I mean he wanted that birthday cake.

One of the ladies in my book club bought this one after we all read the first one and loaned it to me. It was good. I really need to watch the movie. And now I can go ahead and loan this copy to one of the other ladies in my book club. Share the love.

Read this for book club. It was enjoyable ♟📖📚

I believe we start on the first of November? Are we all ready to start our books @Bianca @Hazel2019 and @ImperfectCJ 👻

My choices. I‘m really leaning towards Unbury Carol but figured I should add another choice in. If these really don‘t work I can pull something else 🖤
Also whichever we choose for any of us I was thinking it might be fun to each pick a color for a pen for our annotations.
What do you think @ImperfectCJ @Hazel2019 and @Bianca

Just joined this. Im in group O and I hope I did it all right haha

Finally read this for a book club. It was very reminiscent of the haunting of hill house (book)/haunting of Bly Manor. There were a lot of things I called that were going to happen even from the first chapter but I still really loved the book.

Was a buddy read. I had been super excited for this premise, it was an instabuy. Murder and quarantine? Tell me more. But insert the Tyra meme for we were all rooting for you with this book.
I felt like it had such amazing promise but then tripped all over itself and fell flat on its face. So I‘m going to need someone else to write a good quarantine mystery. Or a Covid meet cute.
Do they exist, does anyone know? Do I have to try and write this?

I got my first shirt from Hello Lovely. I need more.
Also all makeup is Notoriously‘s Morbid and you can use code ALLURE15 to save money on your orders 🖤

Recent Book Outlet haul. It would be one more but they cancelled the order on me and I‘m sad. I really wanted The Song Of Achilles.

Bought these eons ago but didn‘t get them posted so I will now. I got these at a goodwill outlet so I paid 1.69 I think for the whole stack. I got the You to pass along to someone else because it‘s one of my favorites.

Getting ready to start this for my next book club. I swear I had this in physical form but I can‘t find it for love nor money. Yay for ebooks sometimes am I right? Lol
Also yay for apple fritters.

Anyone read any of these or want to buddy read one?

It‘s not #shelfiesunday but let‘s pretend.

I‘m including the last one even though I haven‘t finished it yet but I only have 40% left so I‘m sure I will tonight.
I wish I could have gotten a few more read this month but I think this is pretty decent. Though a few of these were fairly short.
June is my birthday month (I have a wishlist in my last post) so I‘m hoping I still get a lot of reading in there too. And well. Books.
Thanks to @librarygoblin (on ig) for the template

Recent goodwill haul.

Also my birthday is next month on the 18th and some friends have asked for my wishlist and so I‘m putting it here also: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/14M1KXAIQ4G37?ref_=wl_share

I finished Dial M it‘s a true crime about a local murder to me in the 60s. There‘s a pic of the house in the book & I was curious if it still looked the same & since it‘s right near the half price I was stopping by so I decided to drive by the house. It‘s really beautiful house. I wasn‘t familiar with the case prior reading the book so it was interesting to learn about. Specially since I know the area & knew all the places they were talking about.

Got these recently at a thrift store and they were quick reads. The werewolf one was probably my least favorite. I do like the idea of fiction being written entirely in haikus.

Another dollar tree haul with a couple dvds too. But look at that cute pocket copy of everything everything on top. I love it. I really need to start reading faster haha #sendhelp

Has anyone read any of these or want to buddy read any?

Recently finished this one. I got it out of a local little free library and admittedly for the cover. I don‘t normally pick up a lot of short story collections but I figured I‘d give a try. I enjoyed some of the stories but by the time it was ending I was just getting into it and wishing there was more of it. Some just made no sense to me. Will be passing this along. I really wanted to like it more.

“In her black dress, black gloves, and retro heels, she looks like Joan Crawford or Bette Davis. She feels like them too. Tough, yet brittle. That‘s the thing about being really hard. When you do break, you shatter.”
