Ya definitely no depth lol. I should finish today tomorrow at the latest. I’m not a huge Hoover fan but I always read her books hoping for something good to stick out. I don’t think I’ve seen anything on Nov 9th so I’ll put it on the list. Hey Bella :)

My library has November 9, so I can borrow that one :)
Are we all signed up for under the whispering door next??
Yup, I'm all good for that one, it's sitting on my shelves
p I saw a pretty good review for a book called those girls by Chevy Stevens for like a thriller
yes I'm ready to read under the whispering door!
Ok I should be done tonight guys then we can start tomorrow? It’s already waiting for me at the library. After this next one we’re trying for the Hoover book?
I guess my library doesn’t have the November 9 by Colleen Hoover But I can try to find it through Amazon
My library doesn't have November 9, but the library in the next town does, so I can request it through them if we want to go for that one.
Is there anything you guys want to read from this year's Goodreads list of winners/nominees?
Yay, so Under the whispering door next.Looking forward to hearing everyone thoughts on this one.
For me, a part form Under the whispering door, top of my head would be Cloud Cuckoo Land (but its a long one), Rock Paper Scissors, The Inheritance and People We Meet on Vacation
I have Rock, Paper, Scissors. So we can do that later once we do these two!
Sounds good to me. I wanna read Cuckoo Land somewhere down the road too
I have six people in front of me for rock paper scissors but that doesn’t mean anything they might have five bucks in circulation you know so that will go really fast especially because we’re still reading another book
hey guys I'm like at 95% down with the book so I should be done by late tonight early tomorrow morning. I picked up my under the whispering door from the library last night so I'll be ready to go as soon as possible. sorry for making you guys wait I feel bad
No need to feel bad..there is no rush in finishing any book. Everyone can take their time. How are you going, Bella? I'm curious to see everyone thoughts on this one. I didn't want to share too much so not to spoil anything.
I can’t wait to go over this one too! I’m also putting on our list that Cordova book
U don't need to feel bad at all! U guys have waited for me like so many times!! honestly that's what this group is about right, enjoying reading with each other! It's not a competition, so u don't need to rush n finish, but enjoy reading it!
Its The Inheritance of Orquidea Divina
Ok thanks guys. Idk why I feel so rushed lol Stephanie Garber also writes the caraval series which I guess some of the characters from that series tied into this one ?
And yes it’s that Inheritance book so my library has it I put a hold on it so I should get that today. I swear I live at the library!!!!! Lmao 🤣
I just read Something in the book popped out as one of the best books written so far this year or some thing so I figured since you guys already mentioned it and I did get good reviews we might as well put that on the list to if you guys are wanting to or if you want to read it independently whatever you guys want to do but I just TBR’d it
I'm not sure if the charcters are tied into her other series or if there are hints about those books in this one. I thought that was in the circus world, I might be wrong lol. I have The Inheritance on my shelves so I'm all for reading it :)
I just finished!!! I’m so mad at Jacks! I really thought he was gonna turn out to be a good guy and they were gonna live happily ever after….until the next book lol WHYYYYY!!’
I couldn’t believe it. I def liked the book but the middle of the book dragged a little bit. I definitely thought I would’ve finished here before I did… Ugghhhhhhh I’m so mad at Jacks! Have you guys read the Caraval series?
The ending of the book is definitely very open...to be honest I dont know if I liked it enough to read the next one lol. Some things just didnt make sense to me, the plot was a bit of a mess, the characters didn't have a lot of depth to them and Evangeline was naive to the extreme lol
I tried reading the Caraval series years ago, got in from the library, started it, but then I had to give it back and I just didn't feel compelled enough to get it again. To be fair, I wasn't very far into it...
Ya she was. I did like the book but I think it wouldMake a better movie than it did the book. I can see what your talking about… none of the characters really had any depth
That’s exactly what I just did with Caraval. I started it but had to get it back to the library plus we were starting this one and I think it was a little out there too.
Dont get me wrong I enjoy a fairytale as much as the next girl lol and I dont think this was a bad book...but what were vampires doing in it? lolI guess it read a bit too YA for me and I'm old hahaha
I know! Why did she do that lol she just stuck it in there it felt like
I guess we’re all ready for the next one right?
I'm ready to go. Bella, how are you gettimg on?
What did you end up thinking about this one, Vanessa?
I think it was a quick read, like something light. There wasn't much depth to the characters but u know, there wasn't anything bad either.I finished it so fast. and then I was thinking did I love it? No, but I didn't hate it either. lol!
