Second attempt at reading this, starting today (15/02/26)

I just re-read this in September, I should not be doing this again already, and yet.

after not touching this book in the past like 6 months, it's probably time to admit I'm not going to finish it or even attempt to continue reading it at the current time

*crossing my fingers this is a quick read that helps me out of my slump because I refuse to read ONE book in all of december when this should be my time to take advantage and read everything*

I don't know if the book on its own deserves this rating because I couldn't really think of it as something separate from the movie, but yeah, 5 stars

I think I'm going to stop reading this for now, not because there's anything wrong with the book (I haven't read enough to have anything to say about the book, since I haven't even gotten to the end of the second chapter), but because I think my heart just isn't in it right now

I hate the fact that I'm breaking my "reading really great books one after the other" streak that started at the end of july, but I did need to read something in catalan and this was the only thing I had at hand quickly this morning

Picked this up as a bus read reluctantly because I didn't have many options and was IMMEDIATELY taken from the first page

I finally got a physical copy of this for my birthday and I've been resisting the temptation to re-read it (mainly because I know it will make me want to re-read the other two books too and I don't have those physically yet) but a suddenly empty evening because of a no-wifi issue ended up with me not being able to resist anymore.

This is SO good already. The writing is just perfect.

This is still the best book I've ever read* (and now re-read) and if I fail uni because I was too busy re-reading this to do my assignments and study for my midterms then so be it


*the only exception could be Us Against You and (hopefully) The Winners, though really I don't think I can separate them, the three of them will probably exist in my head as THE best book i've ever read

I think I'm going to dnf this.
If I had looked at any review of this instead of picking it up because of the good title + cover, I probably would've known this wasn't something I would enjoy at all. I think a lot of people might like this book, this most likely was a case of 'it's not the book, it's me' so if you read some reviews and know about how the book is structured and still want to read it, go for it

As in person classes have come back, so has my cycle of re-reading the same 10 physical books I own to have something to do on the bus. Luckily, this one is "newer" (from 2020, so no bus debut yet) and a Fredrick Backman book, so no complaints about having to read it again

Re-reading this because i'm at uni tired of doing my final project and with no battery on my phone to read there and I found my copy of this in my backpack

Sometimes a girl just needs a silly little book to survive finals season

When I was like 14 my sister gave me this book and said I would love it. I read it and HATED it with a passion, but in 2022 I can't tell you why I hated it so much (I remember most of the plot but I cant remember what about the book made me hate it?) and a video by 'Better than food' convinced me this is actually really good, so I'm giving it a second chance and let's see what I think about it now

We've passed the halfway mark let's go!

back to reading this book and hopefully this time I actively keep reading it instead of letting it sit untouched for like a month again

Of course I'm speeding through a book for the first time in ages... it's midterms season

yes, I am reading winnie the pooh
