TBR Thursday (2)

I have fallen down on my plan to read books in an organized order on week 2 of this post. Is anyone surprised? I momentarily forgot I was supposed to start WILDER GIRLS by Rory Power for the Ladies of Horror Fiction Goodreads chat. So my tbr photo will be the same as last week. How convenient for me, lol.

Up next in the TBR: 



Anyhow, next up is STILL Chris Sorensen's THE HUNGRY ONES which is a sequel to his book THE NIGHTMARE ROOM & VIOLET by Scott Thomas. This is by the author who wrote KILL CREEK .



Currently Reading:


WILDER GIRLS by Rory Power is my current read and so far it's pretty fantastic. It has some knarly body horror and imperfect characters. I like it a lot more than I did last months pick of HERE THERE ARE MONSTERS which is a relief. I ended up DNFing that one and am not sure if I'll ever get back to it. YA isn't my #1 go to so fingers-crossed that I continue to love Wilder Girls.

What's up next for you?

    I am reading a cozy called The Puppy Who Knew Too Much, am about 100 pages into The Remaking - a horror story I'm loving so far. I also need to read The Influence for a blog tour soon and start The Stand. Whew, I'm tired just typing it!

    Sorry if there are multiple messages here but it keeps coming up as error when I press publish! I don't go much for YA as the tropes bug me too much so it's easier to avoid it! Next up for me is a bit of a problem. I've got three challenges, two with five books, one with six but I'm only in the mood for NF at the moment!

      I'm sorry. Blogger is such a pain sometimes. It wouldn't even let me log in the other day to leave comments but only this one of yours came through. Ugh, your challenges sound so stressful to me but I wish you luck! I have such a hard time completing a challenge.

Retro Review: Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell

Image
Proof that there is an exception to my young adult dislike. Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell Young Adult Fiction, 328 Pages Released February 2013 Amazon ♦ Goodreads Two misfits. One extraordinary love. Eleanor... Red hair, wrong clothes. Standing behind him until he turns his head. Lying beside him until he wakes up. Making everyone else seem drabber and flatter and never good enough...Eleanor. Park... He knows she'll love a song before he plays it for her. He laughs at her jokes before she ever gets to the punch line. There's a place on his chest, just below his throat, that makes her want to keep promises...Park. Set over the course of one school year, this is the story of two star-crossed sixteen-year-olds—smart enough to know that first love almost never lasts, but brave and desperate enough to try. My Thoughts Awww. This is such a great book about first love and the reality of having really shitty parents when everyone else’s home life...

Review: Flowers for the Sea by Zin E. Rocklyn

Go get yourself this book! It's out today. Flowers for the Sea by Zin E. Rocklyn Published October 19, 2021 Dark Fiction   |   Goodreads   |   Amazon   |  Bookshop Flowers for the Sea is a dark, dazzling debut novella that reads like Rosemary's Baby by way of Octavia E. Butler. We are a people who do not forget. Survivors from a flooded kingdom struggle alone on an ark. Resources are scant, and ravenous beasts circle. Their fangs are sharp. Among the refugees is Iraxi: ostracized, despised, and a commoner who refused a prince, she’s pregnant with a child that might be more than human. Her fate may be darker and more powerful than she can imagine. Zin E. Rocklyn’s extraordinary debut is a lush, gothic fantasy about the prices we pay and the vengeance we seek. My 2 Cents For Free! If you follow the bookish people on social media, I bet you’ve seen people praising this book here, there, and everywhere. There’s a reason fo...
