Immediately drawn in! I started this book “blind” and am delightfully surprised by how much I like it.

Loving the blend here. It’s one part gritty suspense, one part spicy romance with a dash of the classics in the chapter quotes.

Omg. This book. At first I was a little annoyed by the jump from subscriber to subscriber, but now I’m loving (and dreading) watching their new relationships develop in as time goes by.

Omg I cannot believe how into this book I’ve fallen. High fantasy isn’t usually my genre, but I loving the layers here. Normally a book would be winding dune by now, but NOOOO it’s ramping up!

Melissa Ram is 52% done with Voyager (Outlander, #3)
One book THREE of Outlander series and wondering why Claire’s never told Jaime about Laoghaire’s attempt on her. How does something like that slip your mind? Ugh

Btw, I guess I shouldn’t complain because this is the first real gripe I’ve got with the books.

Witchcraft must be in these words because I cannot stay away. Normally I hate wordy, descriptive stories but everything is so very necessary here. It’s decadence.

Melissa Ram is 45% done with The Love That Split the World
I’m surprised by how much I’m liking this book, mainly because cause I’d never heard of it before. Just. Lucky library ebook find about a girl who has visions or maybe hallucinations of ghosts. There’s a past/present/alt reality tension that keeps you on your toes. And a dreamy boy with a southern accent.

Our family is reading this book and doing the exercises together. It is a great motivator in appreciating what is already present I your life and focusing on what additions to make.

Melissa Ram is 20% done with Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine
Very intriguing. The details are parceled our slowly by this interesting character. I almost want to feel sorry for her, but I think she’d be offended. Great first read of the year, so far.

I am so impressed with this book. I’ve seen it on reading lists for a while, but put it off because I couldn’t understand how a book about a grumpy old man could be entertaining... but I was wrong. Very good read!

Melissa Ram is 70% done with They Both Die at the End
This book is a trip. Very familiar setting that’s slightly different from reality. Really making me wonder if it’s better to know whether it’s your last day or not.

Omg. District 11 tour killed me. I was tearing up ... and then just MAD. I didn’t know what to expect from book 2, but I’m strapped in and ready now.

Funny and crass. Adult humor and situations that are just hilariously real and a little raunchy.

Loving this book. No information dump here. I’m discovering who these characters are “in real” time like they are. And! “Fuckuppance” might be my new favorite word. “

This is such a good story. How have I never heard of it before? I only wish I remembered more about the Mexican revolution to understand it a smidge better.

I'm horrified but wholly consumed by this book. The wake that violence and loss leaves behind are real. I am shocked, but surprisingly proud of Alex's reaction to her sisters murder. I'm beginning to understand why this book is so highly awarded.

This is a lot grittier than I was expecting. Almost an urban cautionary tale that I want to get to the bottom of.

Half way done and dying because of the tension. Everything has come together so well and new layers have been added in this book. Very exciting conclusion to the trilogy so far.
