Yes I agree, I'll probably have a gap between Jurassic Park and The Lost World.
I was at the thrift store today and they had just been given a box of King books, so there will be more in my Feb haul.

I've heard that from so many. Just started It today only 50 pages in. I'll be camping in a rainforest for a few days from tomorrow so it should be a good immersive read!

My January thrift book haul
$7 for the 5 books!
Which one should I move to the top of the pile?
The Shining - I needed the physical copy.
Jurassic Park - It's finally off my TBR.
I’ll Be Gone in the Dark
Tattooist of Auschwitz
The Lost World - I couldn't leave the hardcover!

Scary I could repost this as mine... Minus the nail polish 😂 The kindle one though I struggle with because I don't want to be that guy but the convenience, the font customization, and once you get a page turner remote it's game over for physical books.

"emotional chokehold" perfectly describes reading this book. All of PRK's books hit, I'm looking forward to his new one coming out in April, already pre-ordered it! Looking forward to seeing your review on this on!

I thought this was going to be easy, but there were Spain Spanish publications and Latin American Spanish publications. i made a list of the Latin American Spanish ones here: search.worldcat.org/lists/1f8f0e...

Just read this one myself. It was enjoyable and I needed some short ones to make my numbers better. I'm nowhere near your 90 though that's impressive

Great review. The eeriness of it reminds me of the quote "If you're not paying for the product, you are the product." Scary to think your personal information is either being weaponized or monetized.

I think you've done enough.

I'm even more intrigued now. Looking forward to the first post.

The positive Goodreads reviews (average 4.40!) convinced me to give it a go, and I'm glad I did. Just finished the first story and loved it! Particularly enjoyed the classic creepy tension and atmosphere. I want to save the rest for an upcoming camping trip but I don't think I'll be able to wait!

That's a good project. When are the first recs dropping? I'm trying to think of some dude books I've read, I'm thinking like the A. American series, or Cormac McCarthy am I on the right track?

On the bright side, it just means the story you enjoy lasts longer! 😅 But seriously, this is the perfect predicament for my article in progress. The working title is "A Case for Kindle." Hope Book 2 arrives quickly!

At a previous workplace they would fly into the office window early morning and all land on their backs. By mid-morning they'd start getting taken apart by ants, so one of my first tasks on arriving was to go and turn them all over.

Interested to know her perspective on how the industry has changed with the internet. The librarians I know believe libraries are more important than ever because they act as a filter. It's a shame the economy is so bad that they would need to do that. I hope I never see my librarian in a strip club
