okay I haven't read this, but I saw the trailer today and it makes me want to!! Has anyone read it, and is it as heart wrenching as it looks??
Watch this >>>>>have kleenex handy .....sob!

Oooh Michael Fassbender and Rachel Weisz? Two reasons right there why I'd like to watch that movie.
Not read the book though. I've been hesitant about putting it on my TBR but that trailer just convinced me to put it onto my shelf.

I know me too and it's Historical too so .........BUT that is what puts me off a little.
OH OH OOOOHHHH I could reread The Help for HF been wanting to read that again for ages, and at least I know I like it lol
Oooh The Help! I've been meaning to read that. It's been sitting on my shelf for a while and I absolutely loved the movie.
omg E you have to listen to the audio of The Help, that was the one I bullied *cough* told ST about when she was "giving up" on audios forever PAHAHA as if that was going to ever happen!!!
Btw, did you see the movie? Is that "chocolate cake" scene as hilarious in the book as it is in the movie?
Lol yes the chocolate cake incident is brilliant in the book.Apparently it is meant to be quite difficult to "read" it as the dialect comes through, I can't comment though as I haven't read it in book form.
Awesome! I'm looking forward to reading that part of the book hehe. I was in tears!
Not usually much a fan of the Southern drawl, but it totally works for this audio.

My favorite audio! If V hadn't *shoved*, I mean gently nudged me into reading it ;) I would have been done with audios...well at least until I found those narrators with a Scottish or Irish accent :D
Finished: D10 - HIT - Read a book shelved as paranormal by at least 10 peoplehttps://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

lol it was all done with love ST, wow that seems so long ago, it was the Tower Teams before last wasn't it?
I feel sorry for Abbie for actually having read that book. The first one in that series was utterly terrible.
Haha I'm staying away from that one then!Is it bad that after we chatted on the SS earlier and I was called away that I totally forgot to check out the new tasks and have literally only just looked???
I just went ooohhh lolb
Audio, baby!I sit at a desk all day, so I just plug in, only turn off for a potty break!
Will see how long though, trying to take advantage of it. I had another Interview for another promotion....so I don"t know what my time will be for audio if I get that one.
I hadn't really expected another promotion so soon, I just got this promotion 1 and a half months ago.

There was a part in the beginning, that almost made me stop...but I had to finish cause I had nothing else downloaded to listen too.The MC is watching TV and is Watching HGTV's Property Brothers, and makes a comment on how HOT there were..
..ewe... first off they are super pasty, gangly, and just a tad bit too fuggly to be considered hot, and I was like "How does this even pertain to the book"
There is another scene where the Pirate Museum is burning down, but wait! She needs to finish vacuuming the floor a needs to feed the cat before she rushes to the scene!
ugg
So I'll finish up YA or Fantasy here in a bit and then I've got Historical coming up and most definitely can do mystery and contemporary hits this weekend....
I just finish my heart-wrenching book and come here to watch a trailer for another.... Gah! I'm dying here! I need something funny to wipe all the sadness from my mind!!!...or Ryker.... He would do too I suppose...
Sorry Abbie! :-))
But yes, the scenes you mentioned seems to be fairly typical for what the MC is like and it's ridiculously stupid, so is everything else. I don't understand how those books got published, but I guess she'd already made a name for herself by then...

Yes, unfortunately we dropped down a little.
But we've got lots of books currently being read and we're only just starting the second week of the challenge :-)

I just finished one for a miss that won't get any points until another one is read for B3-Goodreads Author
The other one I'm reading will be bonus points for romance and it's over 600 pages but may not get it done until tomorrow

Might as well fill up that miss spot right away, that way we won't have to worry about it anymore. All the other options are going to be filled easily and quickly enough :-)

V Nerd wrote: "Loved that one T, I thought it was much better than The Da Vinci Code"So I think I like this one better as well.
