Talk Healthy

I finished Mothered and it was fine.

I read Somebody Else's Shoes by JoJo Moyes which was fine as well. I've liked some of her others better.

Not sure what's next on the list.

I'm reading Mothered by Zoje Stage. It's fine. I really liked her other book - Baby Teeth.

Stress = not turning to books

I'm reading How to Sell a Haunted House - it's very good. House is haunted by puppets and dolls.

Rowan's husband would be a fan.

Hahahahaha

This book talked about her colleague having all this stuff up in his cube about a football/soccer team and that was no big deal vs her's with Benedict pictures. Granted, I wouldn't put a celebrity or anyone/anything at my cube other than my boy of course but it definitely was very contradictory. I l...

Blush - I couldn't get into Turtles although I've liked some of his others. Curious what you think. I'm reading This is not a Book about Benedict Cumberbatch which is really interesting - about how women can like something/someone/etc and it be viewed as "silly". I'm not doing it justice.....

Glad you liked Evelyn!

I've been in a reading rut of late. My dental hygienist (who is a big reader AND i've had forever) pointed out that my rut is likely due to stress. Lots of work stress lately so I am turning to mindless tv instead.

Blush - can't wait to hear what you think of Evelyn. I loved it! I finished a non-fiction book called Soundtracks by Jon Acuff about the things you tell yourself and how to change your inner dialogue/soundtrack. It was decent. I always feel if I take one or two things away from a book it was worth r...

I finished The It Girl by Ruth Ware and it was good.

Not sure what's next. I just got Fiona Davis' new release by egalley from the publisher today. Definitely made my day and frankly week!!

I read the Liane Moriarty one too and they don't even compare with the tennis levels. Hahaha.

I also may have been the one to suggest Tomorrow, Tomorrow and Tomorrow - I didn't get bogged down by the video games.

It's ALL tennis.

Hahahaha - yep! I actually liked it better than Malibu Rising but I grew up in a tennis house (where my dad played and my mom watched it on tv constantly).

Sylvia - if you hate tennis, maybe take Carrie Soto off your list. It is all about tennis.

I'm halfway through The It Girl by Ruth Ware and liking it. I also would like more uninterrupted reading time.

Blush - glad you liked Evvie Drake. I ended up loving Carrie Soto more than I expected but I grew up in a tennis house so I wonder if that was part of it. Have you read the Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo? That's my favorite of her newer novels. I finished All the Dangerous Things by Stacy Willingham ...

Blush - I really liked Evvie Drake and I don't tend to love that genre. It was well written and I felt the story was "mature".

I didn't like The Rewind. I should have abandoned it - I wasn't reaching to read it so that should have been a clue. I generally like the author. I have Nora Goes Off Script next which has gotten rave reviews. I'm not in the mood for rom-com but it was due yesterday so I should just bang it out and ...

My bff got me "You Are a Badass" for Christmas which was interesting. There's a few good points in it. I'm 75% done with The Rewind by Allison Winn Scotch. I generally like her books but not digging this one. I don't like either of the characters so I'm kinda hate reading it at this point.

We Were Never Here was fine and then the ending was bizarro. I hate that. Minus one star for that. LOL Not sure what is next. I'm doing a virtual book club with Little Women which I've read a million times as a kid but they're reading it super slow which really isn't my jam. The next meeting is 1/17...

I'm reading We Were Never Here by Andrea Bartz. It's good but I'm not necessarily speeding through it.

Thanks - had the eye dr today. He now thinks the script is right but the positioning in the lenses is wrong (which is what I was pushing last time) so they're being remade. Hopefully that fixes things. I'm still reading Book Lovers by Emily Henry - I'm liking it. I'm almost done -- <50 pages or so.

Sylvia - I loved Tomorrow, Tomorrow and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin. It's really a story about friendship and I found it different from anything I've read recently. I'm reading Book Lovers by Emily Henry which I'm really liking. It's sad because I can't marathon read anymore so it's taking me longer...
