JF / NR 2019
I haven't finished anything today and have been bad and haven't read. Need to get to reading now.Flygirl since it goes live on 3rd which it day after tomorrow and I'm probably just reaching half way point.
JF: A Room of One's Own, finally. I picked this essay to be my last read of 2018 thinking I’d finish in a day or so but it required much closer reading than I anticipated.Now on to The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle.
JF: first book finished for the new year. Flygirl by R.D. Kardon NR: Turning point by Danielle steel (arc to read/review)
Cowboy to the rescue by Harrison (arc to read/review)
And Janet Evanovich (library)
JF Robert B. Parker's Blood Feud light, the Sunny Randall series always was; I like Jesse Stone better. Possibly because the structure of a police procedural supports Jesse while Sunny seems less, ... something. NR finally started October's group read The Reckoning
JF:-
A handy read with some excellent recipesNR:-
Back to reading from my favourite author Stuart MacBride and one of his most excellent characters
Mel, if your next read is Seasoning for Steaks, I'm coming over.

JF: The Prince's Scandalous wedding Vow by Jane Porter Girl on the Edge by C D Riess

JF The Reckoning audio a depressing story that left me sad but glad I read it. NR Kingdom of the Blind audio. Back to my library list and expiring loans. Longer audio books and bad weather not conducive to walking have cut into my listening time.
JF: deck the HoundsNR: The Poison Artist
JF: one touch cowboy by Leigh/chadwick
JF: Out of the Dark by Gregg Hurwitz. The best yet of the Orphan X series.NR: Winter in Paradise by Hilderbrand

Oh do I love John Verdon! How'd you like Think of a number, Jan?
JF: The Girl Before by JP Delaney (Loved!!!!)JF: The Party by Robyn Harding (meh, just ok)
NR: An Anonymous Girl by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen (almost done, but highly recommend!) **wanted to update on this, I just finished this book yesterday and I do NOT recommend. The ending was a waste of a good storyline.
I really want to get a copy of the 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, I've seen so many good reviews!

For me, it was just an okay read. I posted my final thoughts on the group read thread, so I won't repeat them here. Is the series ongoing or was it just a handful of books?

Our weary, brain-fogged comments didn’t entice you? I’m counting on Ann to like the book and convince me to think better of it.

JF Kingdom of the Blind audioNR The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle .... I'm getting the impression I am in for something ... starting tomorrow.
NR The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle .... I'm getting the impression I am in for something ... starting tomorrow."Are you ear-reading or eye-reading, Ann? I think it would be impossible to follow on audio.

P.S. Glad to have you on board this crazy ride!
Ms O’Cat: I am listening to the audio! I will admit to having paused to rewind a minute or two several times. It does appear this book will be a test of my fairly well-honed audio listening skills ;)
