    Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

    I just...this book frustrated me. I never really connected with any of the characters. Kady was annoying from the beginning. Lauren was okayyyy but just tried to fit in and didn't have her own identity. Jude freaked me out. A lot. I did NOT like the romance plot between him and Lauren at all. I'm sorry, but Lauren has ZERO self respect to be with a guy who stalked her, gave her food poisoning intentionally, and was all around really creepy and angry. That just really annoyed me. I'm usually all about having a little romance in a book, but I was actually rooting for them to NOT get together. And then there's Mason. I actually liked Mason. And then? He turns out to be a psycho murderer. I mean, sure. Your girlfriend was faking liking you and faked her abduction to get back at you for kissing her best friend, but murder? Geez. I mean he did it flawlessly and didn't get caught (peanuts? Genius.) but it was still something I didn't expect from him.

    The whole book moved a lot slower than I expected it to, especially since it's relatively short. I feel like it spent too much time in Jude's head and getting to know him, than trying to follow the plot of finding Kady. I'll give it two stars because the one thing I did enjoy is that I didn't figure out what was going to happen until about 4 chapters before it did and even then, there was still that last twist. I did kind of feel like the murder was a cop out, and I would have liked seeing how Kady had to pay for what she did though. Definitely not a favorite, which is a bummer because I was really excited about reading this one.

    It's been so hot here lately. It's hard to keep cool at work. My job has been providing smoothies and Italian ice. So that got me thinking, what flavor of ice cream do you think your current read would be?

    Based on cover, vibe etc.

    Here is mine!

    The Outsiders- I think the flavor of ice cream based on the cover would be blueberry.

    An Offer From a Gentleman- I'm thinking butter pecan would work well with this book especially because of what part I'm at!

    The Housemaid is Watching- My cover is actually orange for this book. I'm thinking orange cream or mango flavored. Or strawberry mango.

  • Do Re-reads Count for Yearly Reading Goals?

    Hello friends and foes! I’m currently re-reading a favourite book and have been logging my pages toward my daily reading goals and plan to count it (once complete) towards my 50 book yearly reading goals. My friend said that was cheating and she didn’t count rereads! Our debate was all in good fun of course, just two book lovers with two different systems but now I’m curious! whats the consensus (or contention haha) on re-reads and yearly goals?

  • Would you count this as one or five?

    Hi everyone!

    I recently bought an omnibus, The Realm of Fae Marked series by A.J Knight. It's five books, and I was wondering how would y'all log this? Would you log each book separately and count it as finishing five books? Or would you log it as the collection and count it as finishing one book?

    Also, is it intimidating for anyone else when starting a big book? These five books put together make this book 625 pages!! GOD DANG! I'm excited, but intimidated at the same time. 💀😂
