I have tried so hard to like Celine, but honestly she just rubs me the wrong way.

This is a really strange way to start a book. If this was a Kindle copy and not a physical book, I would have thought there was a glitch and I had somehow skipped to the middle of the story.
Oh well. This was recommended by two of my favorite book sellers, so I'm sure it will be good. I just wish there was some sort of explanation of what is going on.

I feel like this book was written with me in mind.
*looks over shoulder*

Hmmm...I've really been enjoying the book so far, but I'm not too sure about this new development.

This book follows two storylines, which is making it so much more interesting. Every time someone lies to Carly (in 2017) about something that happened to Viv in 1982, I wonder if maybe they were involved. What do they know? Why are they lying?

This book is a lot more scary than I had expected! I had to stop reading last night because I was getting too creeped out. I absolutely love it!

Yeesh...I don't know what's creepier: the spooky town or pervy old Grant. Someone needs to make him hurt.

I'm going to have to put this one aside for now. I'm getting bored wit it, but the reviews are so good that I think I'll pick it up again at a later date.

Hmmm...just so we're clear: horses don't lap at water. I'm not sure Ms. Heath has seen a horse drink before.

“You make yourself too hard, you make yourself brittle too. Crack once, crack all to pieces.”

This book is getting goooood.

I love the minotaur and yet...and yet I am not loving this as much as I had hoped to. Not as much as the first book.

Reading this again is like visiting an old friend and sitting in front of a warm fire with a cuppa tea.

I'm not sure if anyone does a redemption arc as well as Joe Abercrombie. He can make a character be the most selfish, rude, and useless bastard you've ever known, put them through hell, and then have them come out the other side shiny and new.

Ugh. Is there a more useless waste of space than Prince Ladisla?

The Minotaur Takes a Cigarette Break is one of my favorite books. I read it every few years and it always has the same impact. This book takes place 16 years after the first.

"'Wait,' she says, reaching for his phone again, 'are you watching videos of Justin Trudeau speaking French again?'"

Me too, Alex. Me too.
