I must be losing my mind. The Watchers is an M. Night Shayamalan film adaptation that IS NOT RELEASED YET as of filming. 😂 I just have a vivid imagination apparently.

I like how you talk about older books, just not recent releases because I had seen the three books I want to read from months/years ago and FORGOT about them. Thank you!!😊

SO MANY good books here! I loved Better World, it was so weird --and weirdly mundane? like a bunch of weird normies? I don't even know what I am saying, but it's true!--and immersive (though thank goodness it was not as heart palpitatingly stressful as Good Neighbors!) And I too have really been sleeping on Ring Shout and Jackal--you have absolutely convinced me to grab them from the library ASAP. But dangit, they don't have Bad Dolls!

I replied too soon! yes Yes YES 5 stars to Natural Beauty! That was a freaking amazing book, especially what was happening toward the end. GOSH!
@MlleGhoul3 ай бұрын
And can I just say! And I hope this doesn't sound weird. But when people are excited, truly thrilled and exuberant about a book, it is such a freaking joy to watch. And you exemplify that LIKE WHOA 💋
@ReadingWryly3 ай бұрын
Weirdly mundane is apt for Better World. And this makes me more excited about Good Neighbors too! Im telling you! Rachel Harrison’s stuff is hard to find for some reason. Is she under the radar?

Mr. & Mrs. Smith is such a fun movie! Do yourself a favor. It's not a spy movie. It's one of a handful of movies I've watched 3x and I'm sure I'll watch it again. Knight & Day is similarly fun and rewatchable.

👄 👍🏽 ✌🏼 Always enjoy your videos! 🥂 Cheers…. Just finished, “Funny Story,” which I found to be just ok. And just picked up, “Listen for the Lie.” I wanted to do immersive reading to listen to podcast elements. But, because Libby had a 20 yr queue, even tho I have half a dozen libraries hooked up, I went for your Everand link. Not sure I did it right but hopefully I got you the 30 days! It only offered me 30 days & had me sign up for both Everand & Scribd… it’s confusing!
@ReadingWryly3 ай бұрын
Oh!!! Thanks for letting me know! They must have changed it since they switched to Everand. I didn’t know you could even still get Scribd, I thought they were integrated. I’ll have to look into it more. Thanks again!
@susiekidd91833 ай бұрын
Yeah, thanks for checking. Some things may still be in process during name change transition. The email confirmation came from the new Everand name, and I signed up via iPhone if that makes any difference.

Thanks for your recommendations! My library (cardinal system in NC- has access to many branches) has no Sarah Goodwin books!! 🥲 I really want to read Stranded but can't find it for under $15. I try not to pay over $10 for a book. I am also looking for Cackle by Rachel Harrison with the orginal cover. Again, none under $15. But I will keep looking!
