I read that book and loved it. She is one of my favorite authors. She writes The Parasol Protectorate Boxed Set: Soulless, Changeless, Blameless, Heartless and Timeless series under another name.

[Wende]

I am reading Sapphire Flames it has 359 pages
[*book:Sapphire Flames|42654250]

[Wende]

If you need me to add another let me know I will read it

[Gustaf]

We are well over 1200 pages so should be fine.

[Wende]

I am changing my book. I will save sapphire Flames for later. Have not started it yet. Was sort of waiting for bingo. So now going with I
Sebastian with 324 pages
[*book:Sebastian|25165900]

[Wende]

Janine and I are hunting for a buddy read that fits both so will post in a bit. 😂

I'm almost finished with my first book lol. Was thinking about going with this book for bingo but went for another one.

[Wende]

I have been wanting to read it and it is ku so it works very good.

[Emilienne]

So, I'm desperate with this category, and bingo category as well. It's not a secret fantasy and magic are not my thing at all .

I hope you won't mind if I change for 1 book that fits both BINGO and AR, a bit shorter, but at least, it won't take me 6 days to read it.

Happy Endings, 190 pages / GR

Completion Post - Task #14
Book: Not Dead Yet
Author: Jenn Burke
Pages: 300/GR
How it fits: Magic tag
Date finished: 17/10/20
Rating/Review: 5 stars

Ok, I guess it's time for me to stop fooling myself. I keep telling myself that these kind of books ain't for me. That I won't like them, yet I keep on reading them. Yet I keep on loving them.

And man, did I love this book. It was quirky and interesting. Hilarious and sweet. I really liked Wes and Hudson. Sure, there were times (a LOT of times) where I wanted to smack some sense into Hudson. He was so very stubborn. Way too stubborn for my liking.
The mystery had a great build, and it took time to realize what was actually happening. Great build up for the next book in the last chapter.

Reread 2020-10-17
It's even better the second time around. Just as I said after reading it the first time, it's so darn cute. But it's also magical. And hopeful and so full of the Christmas spirit that I want Christmas now. I love Daryl Banners writing and this book shows off every single thing I love with it.


Original "review" (not that you can call it that lol).
This was just so so cute. Absolutely loved it!

Loved this book. 😍😍

[Gustaf]

Updated with my second book :)

[Gustaf]

I was supposed to study today but Carlos is at the vet's office with Toby. He hurt his paw while playing outside. It's probably going to need stitches.

[Trip]

Wow, so quick. Must be great reads 💕

Aww i hope Toby is ok and not too hurt, get plenty of hugs and rest xx

[Gustaf]

Both reads were amazing. I listened to the audio of Not dead yet and had the speed to 1.25 because I had to know what was going to happen as fast as possible, so basically I just went on with my day listening to the book for 7 hours straight lol.
The other one is a fast read no matter what and I couldn't concentrate on anything but reading.

Thats great! I love when that happens and just fall into the story 😊

[Wende]

I hope Toby is okay.
I am only on page 60 right now. Hope to be done later today.

[Gustaf]

I just finished the second book in the Not dead yet series, I probably wouldn't have read the first one if it wasn't for this challenge, so I'm very thankful.

[Gustaf]

I have to restrain myself to start the third one, if I want some sleep.
