really really enjoyable read!!! I powered right through it and I found myself so captivated by the narrators voice. The storyline didn't have my favorite ending.... but I enjoyed it greatly nonetheless!

book & cook club April Sci-Fi Books choice! my pick!!!
I liked that the book was easy to read, and quick to jump into the topic. It wasn't incredibly difficult to understand the steps the plot was taking, and yet I was still interested! I also really like the art for this, I often find "adult" graphic novels somewhat difficult to gather real plot from, but I found this one a great mix of mediums.

I found this book interesting, and I read through it pretty quickly. I cannot say that I liked it as much as I liked Sharp Objects by the same author, but it was still an interesting read. I think there were some passages that felt weirdly phrased and out of place, although I can't recall a super specific example. I think the story was captivating (obviously to a lot of audiences, based on the general ratings) but I think the ending was lackluster and didn't give me what I wanted out of the book. It felt like a letdown because the author didn't know what to do with the corner she had written herself into.
Time to watch the film, so I can carefully compare and contrast, just like I did with Sharp Objects

literally how did i do this twice- I once again read a sequel without reading the FIRST?!?! how did I even manage this and I feel as though I need to start looking up books in detail before reading them.
anywayyyyy a captivating read that took me a little while to get into, but definitely got me in the second half!

book & cook club November Mystery Books choice!!
I was hooked into this book, and it got its teeth around me! I had my gripes with it, mostly based on the pacing, but I really did like it. The payoff and twist were sufficiently shocking and tasty, yum yum yum I ate it UP! Maybe I'm just still a hater of popular things, but this just doesn't quite deserve all the hype it got when it came out..... tbh. ALSO just to add this as well, this threw me into a mystery/twisty suspense kick!

oh goodness this was just what I needed!!!! read over the span of two days, I devoured this thing! I had some inkling that I would like the book, and I was SO RIGHT I’m so glad I got it from my library :) I just adored the way the story unfolded, and the language of the writing, and the world that we were so expertly dropped into! as a lover of the tinkerbell movies, this gave me all the same wonderful feelings that those movies did for me as a child, but also managed to feel like an enjoyable adult read. and I won’t lie, I had to google at least four different words! and I KNOW words! this author is WORDY!! I just loved how all the pieces came together, and the ultimate vibe that I could feel from this book upon reading the first page! such a lovely romance, such a wonderful backstory, such incredible descriptions of truly beautiful scenery and people, AGH give me more!!!

i am frankly frightened by the public opinions and ratings of this book. It sucks so bad, it made me wish I never learned to read.
