There's just no way to keep up with them all! I've even tried creating a rule that I can't have more books on my TBR than on my read pile, and while it has gotten me close, I still haven't been able to do it! 😂

[Taylor]

😂 I used to only get the books I went into the store, looked at, and personally wanted to read right then. But now I see soo many books raved about on bookstagram and I just want to try them all and its a problem lol.

[Taylor]

Wait what book

[Holly]

So many books look wonderful! It's difficult to resist...
Lol what book, Sophia?

[Taylor]

Oh lol

[Taylor]

Well the premise of it isnt for everyone. I definitely liked book 2 though

[Holly]

Lol gotcha! Yeah, I could see understand that

[Taylor]

Happy St Patrick's Day! 🍀☘

[Holly]

Quite a bit late on my part, but Happy St. Patrick's Day!!! 🍀

[Taylor]

🤗🍀☘ We didn't do much except for listen to Irish music and have traditional St Patrick's Day dinner but that's all I wanted to do. 🤗 yay irish soda bread. Did you do anything?

[Holly]

Aww, that sounds fun! And yum Irish soda bread! I've never had any before, but it sounds interesting! 😁 No, I'm afraid my family never really does much on St. Patrick's day, so nothing special here. Just a fairly normal day. 😝

[Taylor]

Irish soda bread is so good!

And OMG you're right, she must have deleted her account or something :O Which is so weird. Thankfully, she messaged me on my instagram awhile ago. I'm sooo glad or else we'd have no way to contact her. I just found the conversation thread again, I'll message her.

[Holly]

Woah, I was thinking my Goodreads feed was a bit emptier than normal! I hope she messages you back soon!

[Taylor]

Me too. She hasn't yet, but I'll let you guys know if she does! 🤞🏻

[Holly]

Okay, thanks Taylor! 🤞

[Taylor]

I don't know what's happening, but she unfollowed me now or something idk her ig account is still there, but she has no photo now. 😭 I just wish we knew what happened.

[Taylor]

Her name went to "Instagrammer" now too. Idk if she temporarily stopped her account or something? 😔

https://www.instagram.com/Instagrammer/

[Taylor]

I know 😔
Promise you guys won't disappear too lol? Just let us know if you're gonna delete your goodreads first. ❤

[Holly]

Aww, how sad! I hope everything's okay.... Maybe someone hacked her email or something? It seems super strange that it's not all gone in one fell swoop... I have no idea what else could be going on. 😬
I promise that I will not disappear! I'd hate to worry everyone so if I ever drop goodreads, I'll let y'all know. 👍🤗

[Taylor]

I was thinking or her parents wanted her off social media, idk. I just wish we knew 😔 it's so hard when someone just disappears and you have to wonder.
And I don't plan to ever delete my goodreads, but if anything ever happens I'll let you guys know too! ❤

[Taylor]

Are you reading anything good right now? I have so much free time that I should, but I've been watching a lot of Netflix lol.

[Taylor]

That's why I love it. I used to never really use it, but once I really did I started to love it!

[Holly]

It's very nice to have a way to keep track of my reading history! 😁 Lol free time is a perfect time for reading! Or watching Netflix... 😉 What are you watching on Netflix? Reading wise, I am still working on The Disappearances by Emily Bain Murphy and while I'm not too far into it, it seems really good. I haven't had the chance to continue it so far though... 😝 A Thousand Pieces of You wasn't executed the best, and I felt like it drops a bit too much info on your plate at the beginning, but it was pretty interesting and held my attention. This girl who has super smart scientific parents has to travel through dimensions to find her father's killer, using technology her parents created.

[Holly]

Lol! Callie, I see you didn't like Where The Red Ferns Grow! 😂😂😂 I haven't ever read it, but I know it's supposed to be extremely sad so I could never bring myself to read it 😂

[Taylor]

Ohhhh that's what A Thousand Pieces of You is about?! That's such a cool premise. I always loved the cover, but didn't remember what it was supposed to be about. 😂 And I've been binging a lot of Asian dramas lol. I loove them. Do you watch any?

[Taylor]

I disagree because everyone HATES books just because the school forces them to read them 😂😂 it doesn't mean those books dont deserve merit. Or have great lessons in them. Butttt I can't remember if I read that. Like I feel like I did?..but it would have been so long ago and I dont remember. 😂 in general I don't like sad books but I don't like feeling like that. Its heavy material.

[Taylor]

Just give me a book with some romance and a happy ending and I'm good 😂😂

[Taylor]

Exactly, me too. That's why fantasy is my love. I don't need more of the real world, I just want the magic of a different one. 🌌💖

[Holly]

Yeah, that's what A Thousand Pieces of You is! It's got romance and very interesting premise! There's a second one after that but I haven't had the chance to read it yet. I plan to though!
Lol I don't know why they insist on such sad books in school..? It doesn't make sense to me. 😂

[Taylor]

I've been in the mood to reread Fever 1793, one of my long time faves, but lol it also feels wrong to read it right now because it's about people quarantining themselves during the yellow fever. But maybe it's relevancy to today is why I want to read it idk lol it feels wrong xD I'm still just binging netflix though so lol

[Holly]

Oh my gosh 😂😂😂 Honestly, I saw a book called 'Pandemic' in our library's discount bookstore and I had to resist the urge to buy it because I figured I might not want to read it at this very moment! 😂 I'd say go ahead and read Fever 1793 unless it'll stress you out 😂

[Taylor]

Haha it wont 😆 it just feels so wrong though haha

[Holly]

Lol well, yeah, I mean, it is kind of morbid but whatever coping mechanisms work... You know, as long as it hurts no one... 😂 I still don't intend to read the Pandemic book, but hey, it's an option! 😂😂

[Taylor]

Morbid 🤣😆😆 it's really not though, it's not a biography or something really dark and detailed. 😂 Happy Saturdayyyy!

[Holly]

Happy Saturday!!! How was everyone's week?

[Holly]

Aww, I'm sorry! Are you okay with digital books? If so, you could check your local library's website and see if they have a digital app or something you can rent a book from.

[Holly]

Of course! 👍😁 We gotta do what we can when we can't leave the house... 😉

[Taylor]

I've been in a reading slump for like a year. But I realized it's because I have so much free time right now. So I don't have the motivation to read that I would when I'm busy lol

[Holly]

I wish I could help with that... I'm afraid that we aren't going to be getting super busy for a little while, either...

[Taylor]

Hahaha I know right 😆😆 I don't know how I'd keep my mind occupied enough!

[Holly]

I lean toward introvert. I'm still working because I'm part of the county's cleaning crew, but since I don't live alone I feel like I might enjoy a good self-quarantine 😉😝 Someone I listen to do podcasts sometimes has been quarantined and can't leave home for 2 weeks, and she's completely extroverted. So when the gov. Called to tell her not to leave the house and that she can't see anyone she said she started crying as soon as she hung up the phone. So I imagine this is really hurting extroverts...

[Holly]

Aww, poor thing! Poor older people...

[Taylor]

I'm a big introvert so I'm easily isolating myself at home lol it's just more of the same. But just be aware that it IS "self isolation" and not "quarantine", that word is getting misused and thrown around a lot. Quarantine is when you've actually been exposed to/contracted the virus, isolation is to prevent that from happening. Everyone is going "im quarantining myself" and its wrong and takes away from the seriousness of when people actually say that for the real reason. ♡
Lol I keep seeing memes about the introverts vs extroverts in this situation though and they really are funny 😆 That's really sweet of you for trying to call your neighbor though, Callie.

[Holly]

Whoops sorry 😛

[Holly]

Yeah those memes are hilarious!

[Taylor]

Lol it's okay, it's just everyoneeee is saying it and it's wrong. BUt yeah it's certainly given people a lot of time and inspiration for memes 😂😂😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[Holly]

Too bad we don't seem to want to use our extra time for reading... 😂

[Taylor]

😂😂😂😂🙈🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️

[Taylor]

I keep telling myself I should, but then I start another show on Netflix 😂

[Holly]

Lol! I can't say I've fallen into the Netflix binge hole for now, but who knows when that'll change! 😝 What are you watching?
