1:03:58 Ch. 3 - I was one spitting tobacco moment away from quitting this book, but the last sentence in Ch. 2 sparked my interest, a little.

6:51:04 Ch. 31 - If it wasn't for the 5 people waiting for this book would have rotated to something else. It's a bit dark and complicated for a cozy. I'm not a fan I'm putting away my tablet and going to sleep because I'm halfway through this story and it's just as slow as the opening. Columbo for sure.

1:15:53 Ch. 3 - This is good. The is it true-helpful-kind part is common but the whole soundtracks idea is new to me and a great way of explaining negative and positive thoughts.

11:59 nine minutes into track 2 - I can't absorb this information and play my game. Off to find some mindless fiction. FYI it was good information and interesting.

January is on page 54 of 192 of Quiet Your Mind and Get to Sleep: Solutions to Insomnia for Those with Depression, Anxiety, or Chronic Pain (New Harbinger Self-Help Workbook)
six pages into Ch. 3 Understanding Insomnia and Your Sleep System - This book reads like a textbook and since I have determined I don't have insomnia I'm not sure it's worth continuing, but on the other hand, I don't have anything else to read, well I do but I'll have to look for it.

2:56:37 Ch. 8 Sasha - I took Women's Fiction off because the 5th POV is a guy. So far this book is nothing but marriages in crisis. It's just 2 steps away from depressing and it's like a train wreck I'm rubbernecking. If I didn't have to sleep I would keep going.

I had to read 2 different versions but I did find an earlier published version of 6 Rainier Drive and the information on the character list predates the information on this character list so I'm going to pause this book and read that one.

Page 15 of 107 Prologue - I could be wrong as I know both of these books were published in 2006 but reading the character list although it was published in 2011 makes me feel like perhaps I am reading this book too soon. I am going to read the opening of book 6 and then decide which one to read first.

Page 62 of 245 - These people are utterly dull. The names are all over the place. I don't know how realistic that is, but it feels odd to me. These texts aren't doing it for me.

Ch. 36 - Corrie and Roy are getting on my nerves now I don't even know what's going on they're so cryptic. What I suspected from the beginning is obviously true but they need to get on with it, it's annoying at this point.

59:24 Ch. 5 - The story is okay, but the narrator has mispronounced how and lager, 🙄 I'm trying to ignore it. I Step Siblings are in my top 3 dislikes so a lot of grace if it goes that way.

Ch. 14 - The population jumped from 5,000 to 7,000, that's a lot, I don't have a sense of time since it seems that every time I read one of these books it's like 2 or 3 years later for some characters but only a year for others. There is a lot of recapping each character's story, but they leave some stuff out, which can reshape the story if you're not familiar. I'm not sure if this is so you can jump in at any book

Page 19 of 362 Ch. 2 - I can't believe these are the same Corrie and Roy from the last book. They sound extremely boring here. Maybe I'm just burnt out, even their daughter didn't spice things up.

8:33:46 Part 5 Ch. 14 Using Your Budget For Money Management - A lot of the new car pros she listed are not new car features but higher trim features. She didn't point out that gap insurance is only beneficial if you're upside down on your car, but highly recommended it. Even if you finance a car you can negotiate below depreciation so the gap would be a waste of money in that case.

43:58 Part 1 Ch. 2 Breaking Down The Parts of a Budget- This book is clearly for someone new to budgeting but the details are phenomenal. The Ebook features 2 table of contents and an index. I want it, but it's even harder to get than this audiobook.

January is on page 163 of 384 of 44 Cranberry Point (Cedar Cove, #4)
Ch. 30 I don't know why these page numbers are so low, this feels like a 400-page book, I was surprised by the page number. Anyway, this doesn't feel like a Romantic at all, the suspense is very low, the storyline is very soap opera-like and I'll need to read something else before the next one. The issues are becoming frivolous.

Ch. 14 - I suspected but didn't recognize Cathy, her first scene was vague but mostly I think it's because I didn't remember her name, only Andrew's. The storyline between Cecilia and Ian is ridiculous, it seems like these characters have drama without reason.

Page 24 of 279 Ch. 4 - I'm so excited Cecilia is back and we can finally continue her storyline. I guess I can just assume about Andrew and his wife. I wanted to spend the night with this story but I'm exhausted. Just a few more chapters.

Page 62 of 364 Ch. 4 - So, a few of the people I was worried about haven't shown up which is annoying because that means I have to read more books. I'm guessing one shows up in a future book because of the apartment-style address. I love the stories so I plan to read them all but if I don't get a baby update soon I'm going to be so irritated with this series. I'm only stopping now to feed my family, unlike Rosie.

Page 214 of 377 Ch. 11 - This story is all over the place but in a good way. It's like playing a neighborhood in The Sims 3. I was wondering if there were any good relationships in this story but I no longer care, it will work itself out. I was surprised this isn't clean romance, so I guess she never made a transition just chose by book. I vaguely recognize these people from Rose Harbor so the spoilers are only for t
