164 of 334 Chapter Nineteen Pinterest, Penis Power + Payback - I'm a little frustrated by the second chance portion, but it's still a good story.

So, 10 years ago the setting was not in the ’80s? If one of them was starting her social media career at the time, I hope not. These people are dry as hell, and I am so close to quitting, but I don’t want to quit; I’m getting Happy Place vibes. Nothing is worse than being on vacation with boring, depressed people with an awesome, fun-looking cover that does not reflect the contents of the story.

26:56 [Chapter] two - Is ten years ago the '80s? I can see why there's no wait for this book if the first chapter is anything to go by. I feel like I'm in an old movie, when dry humor was popular.

So I restarted this book and fell asleep in the middle of page 122. The opening is just as chaotic the second time around. I'm not sure I can get through this book, and I don't think getting the accompanying audio will help. This is an obvious slow burn with a fractured internal monologue that is getting on my nerves. The MC is crazy, and the narrative flow is constantly interrupted, which makes it a chore to read. I

5:12:47 Chapter 40: Luke - This book just keeps getting crazier layer by layer, and I'm loving it. I'm only stopping now because I am no longer mobile, so I'm going to read my e-book while I have a chance and save this audiobook for later.

2:43:08 After April Fools' Day: Chapter 20: Louise: Investigation, Day 3 - It's late, and my brain cells are starting to go to sleep, so I'm going to have to continue this book in the morning. I have no idea how it all comes together, but each piece so far is quite exciting.

50 [page 43] Chapter Three Preparing to Write - Okay, I won't be writing down any more books. I know they're all going to be listed at the end of this book anyway. I absolutely love the recommended poem list. One of my favorite poems from third grade, "Homework! Oh, Homework!" by Jack Prelutsky, was listed under that age group, no less.

4:36:21 Chapter 19 - Rose is actually a little on my nerves at this point because it's so obvious that it's a bad match, but I'm going to let it go. I am loving this story so far, but I need to show some love to my e-books, so I'm taking a break. break for now.

Nope

Page 145 of 203 [Chapter] Twenty-One - This story's style is half Agatha Christie, half Columbo, but R-rated. It's late, so I'll finish in the morning.

Page 68 of 369 [one page from Chapter] 7. - So everybody in my book group is having an issue with downloading the audio portion of this book, whether it's through Audible Plus or Kindle Unlimited. I contacted customer service to find out what the issue was, and it's going to take them a couple of days to fix it. So I'm going to stop eyeballing this because this girl is on my nerves, and I'm just going to wait for the

New York, New York December 12, 2011 - Okay, Part II had a bit of a slow start, but it was actually pretty good, better than Part I by the end. And although I really want to finish this book today, I need breaks in between these parts because each one feels like I've read a novel.

Todd’s Coverage, Episode 3: “Sticks and Stones” - This book is a bit odd. I don't hate it, but it is a bit dull at points. This show sounds boring as heck, and the chapters are extremely long. I'm stopping here, but the last segment was pretty decent. I just don't like slow burns.

Page 93 of 437 New York, New York November 4, 2007 - I feel like this is going to be one of those epic slow burns. So far, the story is not bad, but these chapters are super long, so I'm taking a break.

Page 260 of 359 Chapter FORTY-EIGHT Bloch - I'm literally in the middle of a climactic scene that I need to go to bed. I'm looking forward to completing this story tomorrow.

3:38:33 Deep Shade: Nolan - The sex scenes are above my spice level but this is a good story.

Chapter Thirty-Four Raine - This woman is determined to learn the hard way.

Page 131 of 352 Chapter Twenty-Five Raine - This is a straightforward mystery. The MC is behind, and it's getting on my nerves. I'm in the thick of it, but I need a break from the monotony.

🔖Page 58 of 345 Vincent - So I accidentally downloaded this book too soon, and I might have to just eat that credit because I need a group to get through this one. It's not my cup of tea.

Page 49 of 201 Fifteen Days till 4th of July Chapter 6 - I want to love it, but it is a bit dull. There are some moments, but the continuity is a bit lacking; it's all over the place.

[Chapter] 18 Jake - I thought I had this book knocked out today but my energy has depleted. It's cute so far but spicy.

[Chapter] 3 Claire

Monday - Although the story has much improved, it is still incredibly slow, and I'm not staying up all night for it.

Before - Okay, so the story is picking up, but it doesn't feel like a thriller or even really a mystery. Although I don't hate it, I am a little bored, so I'm going to read something else for a while, but I hope to finish this tonight. * I decided to read the blurb, and no thank you, this story does not have the pace of a thriller, and it is not a sexy love story. Who writes these?
