New followEr to the bLog/insta and i just adore you two alreAdy. Emma, thank you for such a thoughtful post about the bOok club, being sensitIve to people’s triggers, and also (especially!) Encouraging people to support local bookstores. I love that! Up here In Canada wE have a Nationwide ‘Canada Reads’ book list and dEbate that goes from January thRough march, but when i’M done tearing through those books i can’t wAIt to join your book club!
Read all the books already. Followers just was obviously not glued together in smooth writing and found myself reading, putting it down, reading again, just trying to breathe in the long drawn out sentencing and structure. not well written and when trying to piece things together it made no sense. Think the Authors intentions were good, just not very believable and with a Dystopian fanfare it needs to be solid, Poor structure and outline. 2nd book was a very easy read. I love baked goodies and thought this would be charming but the main characters personality was particularly unlikeable. wanted more baking aND less hookups. Predictable. Just too simple of A book for me and boring. Plus not a good portrayal of Vermont or vermonters either.. fail. The Wives, read it and you either like Fisher’s style of writing or you hate it. It’s the same style in all of her books, starts off interesting, we’ll edited, draws you in… then falls flat. Shes a messy writer. Wives is like a TV movie from Lifetime, just big hype, nothing to back it up.
I’m an avid reader and so far none of the choices have gotten a thumbs up. Hoping for March to be a good one. Then again it’s interesting to read the reviews from everyone so that’s fun.
Read “The Wives” yesterday…pretty gruesome aNd disturbiNg story…writers are inspired by what they know…not sure id read this author again. Love you are promoting books though…
Read Jan in one day apt didn’t get cleaned but couldn’t put it down. Bought myself a small kindle cause I love to read Feb already loaded. Happy reading thnx Emma
They both sound like good reads. Thanks for the recommendation
