Ooh Leslie it's free on amazon Australia at the moment so I just clicked it. Do you need to read the second book too? (CH???) I'll put this over on the bargain thread too.

Thx, everyone! I'm going to try to start Verity today too. IF I can stay awake! 😂
I'm game Michele-I only read the dedication this morning and won't actually start the book till I get home as I can never cheat reading at work on Friday's...just too crazy! :-)
I woke up at 4 and couldn’t get back to sleep ...so I read for a while before work...got up to 25%...then real life came knocking...I don’t know how to set up a BR...maybe one of our other friends on here does ...we’ll see what we can do. I just know there have already been so many comments I needed to make ...
I opened up a BR thread for Verity, cuz I knew how to do it. So head over there and comment/spoiler away!!! I'll join in if I get The Wish Collector finished today (which I am absolutely LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVING)!!!!

Nay!! Welcome back...I hope you're feeling ok 😁 what a week you've had!
Nay, I’m so glad you are ok. I’ve been so worried about you.Welcome back. And pretty soon you will be as good As new.
Hopefully you organised your health insurance before you had your accident. Lots of big squeezy hugs and kisses. ❤️
Thanks, Judy and Melinda. Although I'm thrilled to be home, I'm definitely missing the I.V. pain meds. I've never known pain like this.And regarding our insurance, we have 60 days from the date of our COBRA notification (11/16) to choose to participate in it. And while $2,500/month seemed like a ton a week ago, knowing that the charges are probably pretty extensive gives me all the incentive I need to do it. I'll just have to see how the costs shake out with using only my Medicare vs Cigna plus Medicare.
I just finished
and I am just speechless. Wow! What an amazing book! Thanks for the nudge Grey! I so loved it!! It's an obvious 5+ stars for me!!
Wasn't it great! I loved, loved, loved AEOL too. Have you read this authors Fish Tales? On my all time favorites list...
Teri wrote: "Wasn't it great! I loved, loved, loved AEOL too. Have you read this authors Fish Tales? On my all time favorites list..."Yes!! I love the Fish Tales! I actually haven’t read the third book in the series (Here to Stay) yet...it’s on my short list ...along with A Charm of Finches. She is definitely one of my favorite authors!
Ok, so I finished Rainfall and I'm sorry to say it was only a 2..5* for me...I just didn't feel the connection to the mc's...the story itself was unique (to me) and it was sad and heartbreaking but I honestly didn't like her writing style...I really have a hard time when an author places a book in the states and then uses slang from elsewhere...I've come across this before and really bugs me...I know some of you really liked it and I can totally see how it would wreck you, but I just didn't feel it :)
AND THAT IS WHY I WILL NOT BE READING THAT BOOK. Psssttt Judy, are you a fan of the C- or Cunt Book?
Ela, help me...what is the thing that will read my book to me on my iphone...can't remember the name...help...I'm addicted to Abruption.

and before you read this spoiler, let me get out of striking range, lol...(view spoiler)
