Googling the WWI terms to fully understand the text.

if the writing continues like this, a five-star read

Happy accidental buddy read with M. ‘Tis the season.

Definitely NOT Team Bill. :{

Campy funny! Similarities to ’Twilight.’ Google is a good friend—I’m not going ‘Tolkien stole from Rowling’ here. I like the first person POV putting us in the main character’s head, especially considering her disability. Will read a little further before deciding Team Bill or Team Sam. 😉 Right now, Team Sookie.

Team in-print-Jasper! Such a shame what they did to him in the movies.

This needs the “Normal People” treatment. Although I just read “Twilight,” I’m having a hard time remembering Bella’s pov to compare with this.

“…I wished that I could make my brain slow down. Force it to move at human speed, if only just for a day, an hour, so that I wouldn’t have to obsess over and over again about the same solutionless problems.”
While I agree in sentiment, I think slowing this down would just make it worse. Was this a message from SM? Is she tired of wallowing too?

Someone could’ve cut a lot of this with a red pen. I get it—he’s conflicted.

Is this thing twice as long as the original because Edward doesn’t sleep? Are we getting the full 24 hrs? Was the length a deliberate choice?

Don’t judge me. Also, this thing is a doorstop.

Buddy read for Story & Song reading challenge.

Struggling. Feels like a DNF.

DNF at 16%. Likely my last Penny Reid.

Second reading- audiobook. I need to know how the character pronounces her name! Also, it’s a fun book with a HEA. Who couldn’t use more of that?

DNF at 34%
Intrigued by the premise, but I just can’t read any more.

I can’t get into this one, and my TBR pile is too tall to struggle.

Reading with CRRL’s ‘Together We Read’

Abandoning the book. I’ve tried twice.

I'm in hell
