If Katharine McGee (and her editor) think Labatt is Canada's definition of a good beer, then they REALLY didn't do their fact checking well AT ALL.

I'm only 19 pages in and the main character has cried herself to sleep because her dead mom's dress got thrown away/incinerated?? 🥺🥺 I'm a goner

Possibly one of my favourite finds EVER from my local library book sale! Looking forward to digging into 25 stories this month!

What I love about adding a time travel element to a story is there are no rules. There is no one way of doing time travel. But at the same time, a good time traveling plot has its logistics/physics/characteristics worked out. They don't have to follow any rules, but they should be worked out beforehand. This time traveling plot is winning big time.

Wildly unpopular opinion that I refuse to apologize for: the movies are very meh.

But the books obviously slap 🤌

"There are people out there in the world who almost inspire me to join the government's witness protection program just so I can be sure I will never have to talk to them again." 💀

James Dobson's name was mentioned in the first minute and a half, so that had me riled up. But then I had to listen to the fact that he counselled a woman to stay in a physically abusive marriage. I'm going to lose my shit and I've still got 6 hours to listen to.

I'm so ready to rage against the patriarchy.

Is this book sponsored by Garmin and/or Google? Because there's an almost annoying amount of product placement.

Me: good thing this series has a good back catalogue, so I won't finish it right away!
Also me: * reads the first two books and starts the third, all in two weeks *

What I'm gathering is that so much of charity: water's initial success was solely due to Scott Harrison's connections/three degrees of separation from celebrities/models/club owners/blah blah blah.

Now I'm genuinely wondering how different things would be if World Vision, Compassion, or IJM had started the same way. Not for better or worse necessarily, but I'm sure they would be different.

Tell me you work in non-profit marketing without telling me you work in non-profit marketing.

My GOSH, Henry is the WORST. I know he's a two year old but stilllllllll

Yup, I'm reading it again only a few months after the last reading. What can I say: I needed a comfort read 🥰

Crying in H Mart (audiobook) already making me cry with Michelle Zauner's narration of just the dedication. This doesn't bode well for my tear ducts throughout the rest of the book...

How dare you make me cry, Kerry Winfrey, when I'm only on page 12. It's too early for crying.

Goodreads wouldn't let me embed a gif in my progress update so just picture the Oprah-yelling gif to understand how I feel. 🎉

Alright, Christian mystery books of my preteen years, get me out of this reading slump plssssss

Juliet Stevenson is officially my second favourite audiobook narrator. SO. GOOD.

I'm really enjoying this book, but I'm more than a little devastated that Brené VERY incorrectly quoted Hotel California. 🙃

Try to convince me Elizabeth Acevedo is not the most phenomenal audiobook narrator on earth. (Don't try to convince me, I won't listen).

Michelle's insights are thoughtful and interesting, and her writing is engaging...... but HOW is there still 9.5 hours of listening time left?????

I've reached my ideal audiobook length (between 6-8 hours) and I've still got 11.5 hours to go... We'll see how this goes 😅

Is reading this book at the same time as watching The Bachelorette a genius idea? Yes, yes it is.

Obviously my reread is the audiobook by my favourite narrator, Elizabeth Acevedo.

We'll see how long I last reading a semi-apocalyptic/supernatural story while simultaneously still living in a pandemic 🙃🙃🙃 here we goooooo
