Ann is 25% done with The Robber Bride
On and on and on, about what each of the friends had for breakfast and in what clothes... Also, very much stereotypes: the academic, the business woman, the emotional hippie and of course the man-eater. I wouldn't have thought it would be so one dimensional. The men are nowhere to be seen so far, except West, who is more like a shell. They are the only reason to live for the women?

Very tedious... Could be good but just so long, I wish it would be more condensed...

Ann is 60% done with Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West (The Wicked Years, #1)
11 hours done, 8 to go... I think my loan and three times renewal runs out before I can finish. It's not too bad, the story behind the elaborated writing, but just tedious to peel all the layers of fluff off....

Ann is 45% done with Wandering Stars
2/5 through but only the historic part done. It's so boring. I can't imagine how you read this book when you haven't read the first one and are interested in the history of them ...

I know, I wasn't a big fan of Belly and her love triangle... still, it seems to be a quick listening... Belly is still annoying but at least Conrad is out of the picture

Ann
Ann is 12% done with The Familiar
Where is this going? A bit of magic (but it's not about that), a bit of girl power (but it's not about that), a bit of Spanish inquisition (but it's not about that), a bit of antisemitism (but it's not about that)...?
All in all a bit boring...

Plot? Who needs a plot when you have a funny country and its customs and the characters to make fun of it!

Ann is on page 60 of 340 of A Haunting in the Arctic
Oh my, the audio narrator has a terrible Scottish accent which makes it super hard for me to understand....

Quite a bleak outlook to 2025. I just don't feel the empathy the main character apparently has too much...

Nothing new so far... All the science behind it, I get it and I hope there are actual examples following. But I don't know how to get the pdf in the audiobook :(

Stuck a bit, haven't picked it up since 3 days, mostly because I've got new audio books.
Interesting but also not much action. Where is it going?

Hm, the blurb sounded interesting so borrowed it. Now seeing the average rating I'm not sure what to expect.... Let's see ..

Have I read that scene with Grace, the new mother, starring at a milk carton for ages without realising how time flies before? It is so familiar....

So, will this be Tom Hanks coming home with or without Wilson to find his fiancée remarried?

Ann
Ann is 10% done with Normal People
45 mins in from 7.5 hours total and I'm contemplating to quit. Is it the third person narrative or are the characters just so boring? I don't like the emotionless narrative. There are 'big' things happening (losing virginity) and it's just meh. Why are they even attracted to each other?

Ann is 20% done with City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments, #1)
Not particularly boring but I can see the twist waving at the finish line like mad. Clary's dad died 15 years ago/Valentine is dead since 15 years after he killed his wife and baby? What a coincidence.... Dead or not dead? Of course not.
