Being forced to take a break and go to the gym!

Another 100 pages down; could this be a one day read?

This book is quite dense and heavy. I feel like I've been reading for HOURS and only managed 100 pages.

I HAVE to finish this today!

I didn't get chance to read last night (life admin, urgh) but I've nearly got to yesterday's goal during my lunch break! Let's see if I can get more read tonight.

Aiming for 50% by the time I go to sleep!

I love this series, and I loved this book the first time I read it, but I'm really struggling to get into it! Think it's because I'm on a contemporary high!

I'm storming through this, but I'm not really emotional

Wow, I love the formatting of this book! Definitely going to be a very quick read. Want to finish it tonight.

Can I be a reading machine and read this all in one day?!

Well okay, this gave a detail I wasnt expecting. Maybe it's been a little while since I read a proper YA contemporary!

I'm having a bad day, and this was subtitled "A love story for cynics" so I decided to give it a go. Managed to read nearly 50 pages in one sitting and think I might actually try and finish it tonight.

Come on Chloe, you can do this!

I'm making progress! Slow progress, but progress!

Only read a teeny amount this morning, but it was easier to get into than I thought!

It's the same for lunch breaks - I just want to keep reading!

Getting a bit of reading in before work is great, but it just makes me sad I have to put my book down.

This is quite cute, but I think it's missing some little spark. Maybe that's why I should've read it at Christmas.

Come on chloe, you can do this.

"Belle let out a breath which she hadn't even realized she had been holding."
This line in the book once is a shame, but twice is just bleurgh.

Speeding through this

This book isn't quite what I was expecting; it's telling the whole of the Beauty and the Beast story, not just the additions for if Belle's mother was the enchantress that cursed the beast. I don't hate that, but it's just more heavy than I was expecting. The back and forth from different timelines is making it more interesting.
BUT: "Maurice let out a breath he didn't even realise he was holding,"

Hm, this is odd.
