Reading this title for a new book club I joined, but I’m not loving it. Sometimes I don’t even like the characters. Why do I feel like they’re so flat on the page but their circumstances around them are certainly full? She gives us changes without explanation from within. Like the mother who moved. WTH? Ugh. I’ll keep slogging along…

I usually like sci-fi but this one isn’t winning me over.

Truly a collaborative effort where we get to listen to their funny banter throughout. Page 180 with the 1746 Act abolishing Highland dress has great timing today with many governments announcing sanctions against China for their continued ethnic cleansing & mass incarceration of Uyghurs in Xinjiang province. Thankfully times have changed!

The audiobook is well-narrated by a young black American voice. She does a good job portraying the male voices. My daughter & I didn’t want to stop driving which meant turning off our story!

COVID crappy scenario: I started eAudio, loan elapsed, eAudio again, COVID delay for print, finally I’m in a print book but was having difficulty identifying the first person character. I read back. Finally two characters have met who I was most confused about. I’m going to continue. It is rich & lovely.

Covid-19 has given me less resistance to depressingly bleak stories. I need a little break.

Listening to audio. Narrator isn’t that good at making people sound different. Sometimes story is a bit hokey.

“I’m an officer in the Roman Legion and the son of a senator. It makes me impervious to moral conundrums.”

45 BCE or 2018 striking parallels between the U.S and the Roman Empire

Laurie is starting Hunted
Nice beginning:
To the girl
who reads by flashlight
who sees dragons in the clouds
who feels mist alive in worlds that never were
who knows magic is real
who dreams
