Welcome back Suzanne! 😀 I made it to the end!! 😅 I haven't heard of any of these books, except for Ready Player One, which I loved and also loved the movie! That's why I'm a little nervous to read the sequel bc I heard it wasn't as good. 😑 And I have Margo's got Money Troubles on hold at my work/library 😉 and can't wait to read that. I heard great things and your five ⭐ got me even more excited! 🤗

Too much repetitive talking and book waving

I just finished. Loved it and I thought the first half was very funny in a Neil Simon way.

Really, who cares what you like? What an ego.

Love your videos! Have you read “First day of Spring”? Sounds like a similar premise to “Ordinary Human Failings”. Would love to know your thought on the two in comparison.

The Agony and the Ecstasy

Wow, that was very interesting! Lots of books added to my TBR. 😅

Have you read any Greek or Roman historical fiction books? Genghis Kahn? Samurai?

Read Stella when it first came out. As an grandson of Italian immigrants, it rang true.

I haven't loved a book or character in i can't even remember how long. I'm glad you liked it too❤

This was my 1st Kristin Hannah book. I agree with you she did a wonderful job describing the war. The book was very well written. I too found myself not being able to put it down at times. And just heartbreak after heartbreak you felt for the main character Frankie so much. I feel like I learned more about the war and what America was like in this novel then in history class. Women have come so far. It was very eye opening as well. I am looking forward to reading more books by Kristin Hannah

I'm going to finish this book today (just 10 pages left, ugh), but I have to admit, it’s been a bit of a struggle to get through. I’m not sure why, but it didn’t have the usual fast pace I expect from Stephen King. I had to set it aside about a third of the way in and only picked it up again because I hate leaving a book unfinished. It just didn’t grip me like other King novels have. The plot felt weak in places, too. I agree with others who say it’s like a mix of Carrie and The Institute, even though it was written long before the latter. I love the ‘kid with superpowers’ trope, so I hope he writes more on that theme. Would I recommend it? Not really. King has written far better books, in my opinion.

Just finished the book. I've asked my parents in the past, if they remembered this time in history. They don't seem to remember, which I find odd. I'm asking my mom to read this book and see if this reminds her. Until then I shall mop my tears.

I’m halfway through reading it and his name is Archie and you say his name is Isaac, which is his middle name, so I guess this isn’t really spoiler-free?

If you're interested in checking out some classics of historical fiction, don't overlook the works of Zoe Oldenbourg (The World is Not Enough, The Cornerstone, The Heirs of the Kingdom) and Sigrid Undset (Kristin Lavransdatter, The Master of Hestviken, Gunnar's Daughter). These writers do such an amazing job of bringinpg the Middle Ages to vivid life. And I have to say a good word for Sylvia Townsend Warner's Summer Will Show, set in Paris at the time of the revolution of 1848...and Elizabeth Kostova's The Historian...and Alice Hoffman's The Museum of Extraordinary Things...

This book was absolutely excellent.

The Indigo Girl sounds fascinating. I love to see how society has changed especially with regards to opportunities that were closed off in the past. Thanks for sharing your historical literary journey 🙂

Her last name is pronounced Pico.

Oh. I thought it was for adults or older teens. I agree it is not for children.

Please stop waving your hands around! Distracting and annoying.

Just finished today. I think the writing was very good, fast paced and well plotted. Some surprising twists but mostly predictable. The ending was too pat and unbelievable. The two female characters were beyond dumb, gullible and naive, especially in today's times. But overall a good read.

Thanks for the book reccomendations. I liked Becoming Madame Secretary by Stephanie Dray.

This book blew me away

Do you no longer subscribe to Goldsboro Premier? Sorry if you address this somewhere in the video. I’ve not finished watching the video yet… 😊

Yes let’s do this again…..Loved the processing…..unfortunately I must live in an area of Washington State where the area libraries taken-awhile to catch up…..as I had to put a couple on the please “notify”……good thing it’s beautiful out here…..

What a great idea for a video. I’m not a RU-vidr, but I want to do this for the Booker Prize and see how I do. I read all six books-Brotherless Night, Enter Ghost, and Soldier Sailor were my faves. I gave them all 4 stars or above. River East, River West was just below that. I thought The Wren, The Wren was okay. I liked the writing a lot, but didn’t love the book. Restless Dolly Maunder was my least favorite read, so much so that I don’t understand how it made it to the shortlist over other books on the long list. Sounds like you really enjoyed it.

My book club loved Indigo Girl, an amazing true story. We also just finished Crow Mary by Kathleen Grissom, the story of a Crow woman marrying a white man and their life together and the conflict between the two cultures.

I'm with you - Kristin Hannah's character development is on another level! I felt like I knew these women personally by the end. Has anyone else read "The Nightingale" by her? Wondering if it has the same immersive vibe as "The Women" - might need to be my next read!

Annie Bot is an absolute amazing book. Thank you for the recommendation.

Did you read the first Hater trilogy? I liked them a lot and was curious about these new books so I'll give your review a quick watch

Love your Great Dane ❤

Great video

I had no idea The Hunter was a sequel when I read it. So, interestingly, the book can stand alone. I enjoyed it a lot. Mart is my favorite character. Every word he said was never wasted, even when you think he was just talking about the weather, he was always looking for information. Brilliantly written.

Nepal🇳🇵

I hope you complain to Page 1 books about the quality of the book & items you got this month. that was totally unacceptable. I picked t=The god of the Woods, Middle of the Night & House of Glass from BOTM this month. Since joining BOTM back in 2019 I have definitely seen my genres change. I normally would read mostly fantasy & historical fiction with other fiction mixed in but I wouldn't touch romance. Now I am all over the board and reading different genres including romance and I am finding I actually like some romance books if it's well written.

whats the instruction on the cfs and cms

Mam I decided to choose this book for my MA project ..I choose climate fiction literature .Will you please tell how much cost this book & did I get all the sources for this book

The problem with your video, the title is not placed correctly, your video SEO is not done properly, there are mistakes in SEO in some places, properly SEO Keyword increase the reach, the video views and subscribe would increase, and the video tags are not targeted, sir, properly SEO If you do, your video will increase heart video subscribe

Please consider the Outlander series by Diana Gabledone. The main character is Claire...and she is one amazing woman.

You have read some great books! I loved Ordinary Human Failings so much that I ordered her first book, Acts of Desperation. I have heard great things about How to Say Babylon and it’s been sitting on my bookcase. Definitely going to read it as soon as I finish the stack I’m working on now 😂 I just finished Knife and found it so compelling. I too loved his writing and his thoughts & points of view are intriguing. I agree with you and would love to have a conversation with him.

Very interesting list. HTSB was one of my favorite reads from last year. I was pulling for it to win the Women’s Prize. I also loved Ordinary Human Failings-so good.

I totally agree some genres ust work for you at certain points in your life. Romance was always my go-to palette cleanser. I couldn't gel with mysteries. Now that has totally flipped. I have discovered Had Case Crime books and I haven't been able to make a romance work for a few years. Christina Lauren was an auto read author for me. All of their books have witty banter and better than average characterization. Some of their series have good "ensemble casts" that elevates a whole series.

I personally really liked this book. The author wrote very well and did a great job at portraying both how the protagonist is morally questionable and has grown with these traits that at the time were not considered for a women. She is known for being vengeful and the author shows this but also writes how it comes from a place of love for those she is loyal to and how she has dealt with the hardships thrown at her. I enjoyed the novel very much.

I love this! My most read genre is horror, second being literary fiction. I have Horror Movie on my TBR. A Head Full of Ghosts by the same author was a 5 ⭐️ read for me so I have high hopes 🤞🏻🎬

Hi 👋🏻 new subscriber here. You’ve had a great year so far 🎉 I put 3 books from this video on my TBR 😊. I’ve read 43 books this year and have had 3 five stars, After Francesco by Brian Malloy, A Woman is No Man by Etaf Rum, and Grey Dog by Elliott Gish ✨📚.

You’re very well-spoken. I read this as a stand-alone book and (at first) I was miffed at all the characters I had to keep straight that so obviously had a backstory I was unaware of BUT the compelling storyline drew me in and I ended up enjoying it. I love your reference to seasonal books - so true!

Loved this!

Thank you for your thoughtful remarks on two of my favorite books - Tom Lake and Rules of Civility. Isn't it wonderful to spend time getting lost in stories crafted by two gifted and wonderful authors?

Leaving this treat of a video for tonight! Thank you for posting. You have very similar reading “taste” as me, so if you recommend something it goes on my never ending TBR list. 😀
