I’m really intrigued by The Blood of Stars, Enhanced, and The Chaos Grid now-so glad you enjoyed all those! And good luck with moving! 👍

So many of these books sound really good! I haven't been reading much scifi lately, so Enhanced and The Chaos Grid really stood out. I didn't have any 5-star reads in April, but one I really enjoyed was Counting the Cost by Jill Duggar in which she talks about her time on TV and in a home that follows the IBLP cult-like organization.

@ChantelReadsAllDay 2 месяца назад

Ooh, I've seen the cover for that Jill Duggar book and I'm intrigued by her story for sure.

I loved All The Lost Places, I definitely recommend continuing it!

@AlmasBookJourney 2 месяца назад

So funny, but I was happy to hear that the book The Chaos Grid Was a stand alone! Sometimes series are just too much for me. I really loved the Last Year of the War. It is sad that so many families were affected like this by being sent to the camps. Susan Meissner is one of my favorite authors!!

@Writing4Jesus247 2 месяца назад

Same! I prefer standalones!!! No pressure or stress to read more. No cliff hangers. No disappointment in sequels! Quit while you're ahead😂

@AlmasBookJourney 2 месяца назад

Amen to all of that!!!@@Writing4Jesus247

@ChantelReadsAllDay 2 месяца назад

Totally understandable, I often like standalones too, but this time I just wanted to spend more time with the characters.

My April reading was pretty good, all 4-5 stars: -How to Solve Your Own Murder -A Bound Heart -The Outsiders -Everyone is Beautiful -The Divine Proverb of Streusel -The Foxhole Victory Tour -Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers

@ChantelReadsAllDay 2 месяца назад

That sounds like a great month!

@abundanceintheson_467 Месяц назад

My top 3 favorite reads of April were: 1. "Children of Dune" by Frank Herbert 2. "Modern Miss Mason" by Leah Boden (I want to own this one, soon) 3. "Shakespeare's Secret" by Elise Broach (Excellent middle grade mystery and bit of historical fiction, too. Found it in a LFL and I loved it and passed it on to my 11 year old daughter and she loved it - so definitely recommend it!)

@ChantelReadsAllDay 2 месяца назад

It's one of my daughter's favorites too! I just couldn't get into it, I'm not animals as characters in books unless it's children's picture books.

Oh Susan Meissner books that I gave 5 stars. The Nature of Fragile Things and Only The Beautiful. I need to read another of her books this year. I have one on my shelves called The Girl in the Glass that I need to get to.

In April I read 12 books 4,375 pages, I've been slumpy so I lost enjoyment from the good ones and the less good ones were a chore to finish My 3 faves were -Godzilla x Kong by Greg Keyes (movie novelization) -The Hidden Guardian by J.D.L Rosell (over 700 pages and made me cry) -The Seven Year Slip by Ashley Poston (great romance that wasn't clean but minimally spicy) I made a homemade trillogy that was interesting -My Friend Natalia by Laura Lindstedt -New Animal by Ella Baxter -Nightbitch by Rachel Yoder I read Bones by K.L Speer which sounds a bit like Chaos Grid, Bones was pretty good but had an unnecessary romance plot that drug it down a bit. Ps I read and liked The Secret Garden, was I mistaken that that was a book club book here?

@ashleamarshall9370 2 месяца назад

I gave All the Lost Places five stars, but I seem to be in the minority. I loved Kingdom of Ruins by D C Marino and The Lizard Garden by Anne E Phillips. I also enjoyed Wormwood Abbey. I still need to read Drake Hall. I think all of the books are supposed to be out by the end of the year.

@ChantelReadsAllDay 2 месяца назад

Oh man, now you make me pause and wonder if I should give All the Lost Places another chance . . .
