christina hughes (lilbit1208) | 2 comments I am currently listening to the chain and OMG ! So far it has kept me going lol full of suspense about each person having to kidnap a child to save their child from being kidnapped it’s called the chain.

Hi, Christine. It is really easy to add a book link / cover. You need to be online, not on the app. When you are typing in the text box there is a little link just above it that says "add book/author." Click on that and you can do a search for your book. The link is the default setting. If you want the book cover, you just need to select "cover" at the bottom of the search popup. It shows up as html code, so it looks a little weird, but it looks right when you hit post.

Starting How to Walk Away today. I'm really looking forward to it. I loved Things You Save in a Fire by the same author, Katherine Center.

I'm also reading Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid. This is another author that I discovered fairly recently, over the past couple of years. I really enjoyed her Daisy Jones & The Six, which led me to read The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. I enjoy her writing and thing she is excellent at creating realistic, engaging characters. I'm not too far into Malibu Rising, but so far I think I'm going to like it just as much as the previous two.

Elsa - We seem to be in a similar reading trend right now. I just finished The Maidens, which I really enjoyed (my review) and I'm currently reading Malibu Rising. I've read two books by this author and thought they were both great, so I have high expectations for this one.

I've also started The Thursday Murder Club. I've been wanting to read it for a while now. So far, there's just been a lot of characters introduced. However, based on their introductions, I think it's going to be a fun read.

I just finished Before We Were Yours by Lisa Wingate and it was awesome! I listened to the audiobook and it was so well-read. Normally I don't like books that alternate chapters between two narratives, but in this case the story and the narration were so good I kept going.

Kathleen Daly | 23 comments Hi all! I’ve been reading “The Witcher” books. After watching it on Netflix I was spurred on since the show is very good but there are some details that are not included just because there are so many in any book like these and I wanted to know it all.
So I highly recommend the show and the books.

I have started The Noise by James Patterson and J.D. Barker. I'm only 5% in, but it immediately grabbed my attention.

I also started The Final Girl Support Group. I’m just at 11% and I'm not sure what to make of it yet. It was not at all what I expected it to be from the start.

I thought this book was excellent. It was just what I was hoping for. I would recommend giving this one a try if you enjoy family drama, secrets, love, and mostly family coming together.

We Are the Brennans by Tracey Lange We Are the Brennans

my We Are the Brennans review

I put aside a couple of books today. I was listening to The Inventor's Secret with my grandson, but every time I asked if he wanted to put his book on he said no. It turns out he just wasn't very interested in it. So, I put it aside and we started listening to From the Desk of Zoe Washington instead. He seems to be enjoying this one more. We are also almost done reading My Life as a Potato together, which he is enjoying.

I also put aside The Final Girl Support Group. I was not enjoying it and it was due back to the library today. It had an unreliable & unlikable narrator. Plus, I just wasn't really engaged in the story. To make it worse, I chose the audio and I did not care for the narrator. Her voice was starting to grate on me. So, after reading 59%, back to the library it went. I may try to get a physical copy at some point to see if it's any better, but maybe not.

I am now reading Allie and Bea and The Noise.

Kristie, terrific, thanks for letting me know. I got both the audio and book, so love to read mostly book and glad to hear the audio was great, too.

I finished Allie and Bea. I thought it was good, but it wasn't favorite.
