Or not. I just saw the note to not sign up..."


Yeah, let's finish our other books first so we can open up all the bonus rounds.
I should hopefully be done with my two books by tomorrow as well. Hopefully!! At least I'm planning on spending the evening reading :-)

What did you make of the book?

Oh I'm sure! The only reason I didn't jump right into book 2 was because I didn't want to stare at it on my Kindle without a spot in the challenge to use it.

I really liked it. It is gruesome, dark, and altogether disturbing, but not in a sickening/crude kind of way. There weren't many tie-ins to the original Alice in Wonderland except for the characters names (this is definitely not Wonderland). In that respect it was extremely interesting to see the wicked spin put on some of these classic characters. Honestly that was my favorite part of reading this book; to see Alice as an adult that has spent the last 10 years of her life in a insane asylum was a nice deviation from the original. If you like dark, then I think you would enjoy it :)

Hmm ok, might have to consider that.
I read Henry's Black Wings series and some books I really liked, and others just draaaagged, so it's nice to hear what you thought about this one, since it's something different from that series.


Tamika♥RBF MOOD♥ | 1422 comments E, did we use my Bone Crossed book anywhere?

No, we banked it as you started it before the bonus round was opened and all the other spots that were still available weren't suitable.


Tamika♥RBF MOOD♥ | 1422 comments Oh okay. That's fine! Just wanted to know.

I waited until all 3 came out and then read them as one book...lol. Otherwise, it drives you crazy!

Ghost in the Stacks So how did it end?
Did everyone die?

I'm not even sure how to answer that. The first two had me wanting more! But I said "seriously" to myself, out loud, more than once during book 3. I did not like the end. It was almost like Fisher and Hoover lost their memories and forgot the awesome ending they were planing for this story. Just a little disappointing.

That would have been a more acceptable outcome.


message 2738: by Ghost in the Stacks (new)

Ghost in the Stacks That is always the best outcome...


message 2739: by Berit☀️✨ (new)

Berit☀️✨  (berittalksbooks) Jessica, I completely agree with you, it's like they lost their steam, or desire to write the darn book....

What was the premise?

VNerdbooks (v_nerdbooks) | 5107 comments Yep me too, loved 1&2 but 3 was a BIG disappointment


Tamika♥RBF MOOD♥ | 1422 comments Are you freaking kidding me!!

That's crazy!!! I dodged a a** bullet.

That's so horrible.

Thank you Jessica.

3 more books left for the required books to be done and the rest of the bonus rounds to open!!

I'll be done with my coaching book tomorrow.

LaurLa should be done with hers by then as well and I assume that Alex will finish hers soon, too :-)

Get ready for bonus to kick in!!

And on that lovely note, I am off to bed! Toodles!

W..."



I knew I wasnt going to like it.

It should of ended with Silas blowing the entire house up, cause he realises that real life sucks, and after being married for 20 years he finds out that his daughter really wasnt his, her daddy was the pool boy, back when they could afford a pool. Now he is working 2 jobs to make ends meet, while his wife is getting high and sleeping with the college student next door.


Tamika♥RBF MOOD♥ | 1422 comments Lmao.

Always the cynic Abbie.

Although, I probably would like your reasoning better.


message 2749: by Ghost in the Stacks (new)

Ghost in the Stacks Well from book one, I got that she sleeps around...and he was trying to make her jealous with the teacher...Plus he REALLY LOVE her, and she seemed like she MIGHT LIKE him...

This is what my Crystal ball reveals...


Tamika♥RBF MOOD♥ | 1422 comments I don't remember much, but I do remember my reaction was utter hatred.

**shivers** Never again am I reading that garbage.
