Can audiobook ppl please help me out? Is this bitch Luca pronounced “Luke-ah” or “Lu-SEE-ah” cause I keep confusing her as a guy since thats literally a top 10 US boy name but they refer to the character as “her.”

Not that it matters cause she’s probably gonna end up dead anyways 🤣

I want to buy the sequel to a book I've read and my original intentions were to buy it from an independent online bookstore (as the first book was chosen for their book club), but the book is £13.75 including shipping, whereas the publishers have a 50% off sale with free shipping for orders over £25.

I could buy the book from the online book seller, or I could get 5 times the amount of books directly from the publishers for less than half the price.

I know that I really ought to support the small business, but at the same time I feel like I need to support myself with making smart financial decisions, since I'm not rich and can't go around splashing money about without consequences. If money wasn't important to me I'd support the independent seller no questions asked, but unfortunately, I am in the position where I want to be more cautious with my spending.

I guess I'm hoping that someone can help give me some advice on what to do here? And how to not feel like I'm a terrible person for thinking this? 😭

I'm rereading the hunger games series for the first time since it came out and for some reason Mockingjay was the most forgettable to me. Now that I'm rereading it, I'm remembering more and more of the story and looking forward to it. Suzanne Collins really did improve the story with each and every book. Maybe I was too young to see that before, or maybe it's because of the state of the world today.

So far enjoying it. Much easier to read than I thought it would be. The writing is lovely and engaging. One thing I am disliking a bit is the extremely long chapters, but I’m sticking with it! ☺️ it is a little discouraging seeing “time left in chapter 1 hour” at the top of my kobo😅
