  • List question and editions

    Hello! I just created a new list and want to change the editions that are present in my list but every time i click choose this edition, it doesn’t stay… Am I doing something wrong or do i need to select which edition I want for the book and then add it to the list…

    novellas and short stories just aren’t really my thing. they never seem to hit that sweet spot for me and it's either rushed or overloaded with info and i’m usually left wanting more (or less depending on the story). that said, the life of chuck and if it bleeds were definite standouts for me.

    i did appreciate getting a little closure for the outsider, but honestly… someone get miss holly some PTO! gurl has been through enough!!!

    “People are blind to explanations that lie outside their perception of reality.”

    when i got to this quote near the end of the book i had the craziest out of body experience. i sat up in bed, closed the book, and just said ‘WOAH!’ reading this line actually altered my brain chemistry and put everything into perspective. the math started mathing and it forced me to stop reading the story and reflect on what the book was saying. like duh that’s how reading works but i don’t care let me have my moment 🙃

    my biggest takeaway? thanks for asking! it was certainly how we let bias, fear, and DENIAL control what we are willing to believe. i feel like i’m constantly hearing “that’s not true” or “they wouldn’t do that” when in fact YES it is true and YES they did do that. why are we constantly bending reality to fit what feels comfortable to us? focus on the truth that is literally right in front of you!!!

    wow this book made me think a lot! loved every second of it 💋
