message 10: by Bridget (new)

Bridget (oobridgetoo) | 1 comments Currently reading Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas. Really glad I have the first 4 books, as my library has closed! Trying to avoid anything Dystopian or post-apocalyptic right now. 😅 Fantasy is the best escape for that!


message 11: by Heather (new)

Heather | 4 comments Jessalyn Loosely put Recursion is about a memory affliction that is spreading which causes many to commit suicide. A cop is trying to understand what’s happening and gets sucked in with a neurologist to try to stop it. I don’t think my summary does it justice, but it’s a great book.

That sounds really good. How is it so far? And who's the author so I can look it up?


message 31: by Kat (new)

Kat Jodi lynn Anderson, and I finished it, I was a little disappointed with it, not much action and is heavily focused on romance and weird perspectives. Not terrible but not the best either.

Ooh that does sound good. I like books that have romance as a major topic. I just put it on my to read list.
