I am tapping this book up. This would be a good book to read mostly in one sitting.

The amount of times somebody thought Enzo was either Mexican or couldn’t speak english was absolutely maddening.

Very interesting where this book has gone. Much different than the first in the series. C has been liking it.

Everybody views the value of their own life so differently.

I noticed so many similarities to other books the past two days as I was listening to the audiobook and so I did some research on McFadden. Apparently she has copied many, many other thriller books. While many things are not original anymore… you can take ideas and plot points from other authors for sure.

I’m not surprised

I know…I know… this was December book club pick. So far…it’s been predictable & I’m annoyed listening to the audiobook hahaha. However, this is an easy audiobook to listen to while cleaning.

This is already fascinating. I have really liked speculative fiction lately. I was told to NOT read the Goodreads blurb since there’s a spoiler 🫠

I’m not exactly sure how this book was being promoted last year when it was translated into English, but if I’m going off just the cover alone… Well, this isn’t a happy Christmas type story. It is inspired by the little match girl and if you know anything about that story, you know it is melancholic at the very least.

Uh ohhhhkkaayyyy hahahaha

Definitely has a great reread ability.

Rather slow even with the instant infatuation which is fine this tome around but man…these two don’t have any chemistry.

I was looking at my ratings & I’ve been generous with my 4 stars but rating higher if I really enjoyed it. I was not afraid of setting a boom down if I wasn’t in the mood. What hasn’t changed? Stingy 5 stars 😅

Ugh I love Rose!

Can’t handle it

I have no idea if what’s happening is obvious or not 😬

Angela was Owens waterfall 🥹

This is my first Aardvark book and I wasn’t sure if I was going to read it in December because it’s rather big but I’m hooked. I already like Rose and the retirement home campus is already its own character. I also tend to really like Nightfire publishing.

I started the audiobook with C& I’m excited to finish this with her. I really liked this middle grade when I read it last year. The audio is perfect!

Been listening to this off & on. It’s okay so far. It’s very Hallmark. This is a BOTM audio pick & I reallllyyy don’t like how the male narrator speaks in Harriets voice.

How the chapters have gotten a bit incoherent & have you questioning what is real anymore shows how far removed the wife has gotten from reality 🫠

Quick Christmasy book.

Wow

😳 Well…they’re very good at cleaning.

This book has me thinking something is going to grab me in the dark 😅

I hope to read more of this in the upcoming week because this is absorbing, even though being in Coras mind is compromising.

I love reading about how other cultures honor the dead & especially find it endearing that food always plays a part.

“There are those hearts, reader, that never mend again once they are broken. Or if they do mend, they heal themselves in a crooked and lopsided way…”

So cute

I think she did, what I think she did.
