Elyse is starting The Unmaking of June Farrow
Unbelievable might be dnf’ing two books in a row. I would hate to meet this author in real life - never stop talking & 10 minutes to spit out a sentence…

Gave up. I usually like his books but this one was unreadable. Just couldn’t finish & it’s in my top 10 of terrible books.

Not sure if I can keep reading this book. I’ve read about a third of it & keep hoping it will pull itself together. So far it is just a long winded mess…

Elyse is 30% done with Triptych (Will Trent, #1)
Think I shouldn’t have watched the TV series because I am a third of the way into this book and wondering where is Will & Angie. And also wondering how cast the TV series? Worse book character mismatch since Tom Cruise - even though I actually prefer the actor in the series.

Elyse is starting The Boy on the Bridge (The Girl With All the Gifts, #2)
Sort of a spoiler
Found the ending strangely touching but feel cheated out the story about the evolution of the children

almost done. I will read the second book right away (though still leary of a series with 14 books)If you like Game of Thrones type books, you should like this BUT not if you want gore & violence. So far, much tamer and more magic, no dragons but there are other creatures.

I felt like some scifi fantasy and so far this book has been a little slow but engaging.

Elyse is reading Joni: The Creative Odyssey of Joni Mitchell
it is like reading an extremely intelligent college student's paper which she wrote in a way that she could use it for at least 3 different classes ....english, socialogy, & psychology

This is a book? Well, it is entertaining but it like reading vs watching a comedy routine.

Elyse is reading A Prayer for Owen Meany
I am reading this book slowly because it is just as good as it was in 1989. Enjoying every page and amazed at what I forgot as much as what I remember.
