35559 Cool gtk- maybe I can get into it as holiday reading

35559 I did enjoy it, but it took me a while to remember the story and the people.

Kind of like you reminding me above about the Bear and the Nightingale!! It’s been five years since I read that… I’m not sure I could get into book 2 without some revision 😬

35559 That’s right, Angie
You only need the swaps if you can’t feed all the types

You got me into that series! I can’t remember what it was but the first book worked for a reading challenge 😆
I read book 3 last year for this challenge and so should get to book 4 soon 😬

I really wanted to read it as I enjoy his writing so much but I am struggling to find time to sit down and dedicate to it. And I’m finding it difficult to engage with - perhaps because I can’t dedicate that block. I’ll finish my current audio and then use a credit for it on audible I think 😬

35559 Urgh. I'm having a shocker with reading any NG books at the moment.

I started The Winners (Beartown, #3) by Fredrik Backman 3 months ago! Maybe I need to just bit the bullet and buy it on audio as that seems to be all of my reading these days

Yes just go with the minimum. Thanks, Suzanne

35559 Sorry - should be fine now

35559 My mistake was putting so many long books on the list 😆 but I guess that is why they are stuck on my tbr

35559 Welcome Cindy! 🍱
35559 😆 thanks Stacy
I really enjoyed the TV adaptation but I guess it gets to the consequences for baddies faster and isn’t quite as visual / graphic (strangely?)

I'm still in part 4 and struggling. The writing is great but the baddies are just so.... infuriating. I haven't touched it for a month so I will try again

35559 Sigh
And I started the year so well
Nov 01, 2022 12:55PM

35559 Sure Stacie.
(Although for some of us it makes us sleep rather than ignites passion 😆😆)

35559 Yes make it as a meal in the shopfront but leave the assignment but blank

35559 lol
I can't wait to see them

35559 Yay! The month three theme should be up your alley… although perhaps I should have gone more specific with some space romance 🥰🤪😆
