Amy:Β Well, I finished Tampa. Yes, THAT book.Β Umβ¦Β *clears throat*Β It wasβ¦Β *twists lips to the side*Β Yeah. Itβs a doozy. Weirdly addictive once I got over the ick factor, and I was only able to do that by picturing him older. Picturing him as an eighth grader was NOT going to work. Damn, that woman was a freaking predator. π I donβt think I could do another one like itβ¦
S. Ann: Maryse, you should totally read TAMPA! For those who have kids, it might be cringe-worthy, but itβs worth the experience…
Ela: Yeah, didnβt care for Tampa and THAT WOMAN WAS JUST GAHHHHHH!
Lisa: Cover β do books have covers? I canβt say I ever really notice them other than I canβt get the Tampa cover out of my mind. There is not enough mind bleach for that.
Jan: *looks up cover of Tampa* Oh yeah. that one. Um, just no. (I know Iβm not the only one who didnβt realise itβs a BUTTONHOLE!)
Leslie M:Β Iβm with Maryse, Tampa scares me.Β That cover!!!! Seriously???

I went to bed waaaaay to late and then couldn’t fall asleep.
I hate this feeling. This is why I’m now usually the old woman who goes to bed at 9.
*whimpers*
Ugggggh I KNOW THAT FEELING and it is one of the worst. Sheer exhaustion all day, but wide awake and stressing all night.
I needed sleep so bad last night (bc of my awful Sunday night) and was prepared to go to sleep early and then the tornado sirens went off. So I had to run upstairs and literally drag a couple kids to the basement yelling βmove your butts!β along the way. They fell right back asleep downstairs. Even the dog was reluctant to move. I stayed down for over an hour before I had to go up bc I needed sleep too. I left the others down just in case bc there was a watch till 2. J is STILL sleeping. We didnβt get hit, but the town my hubs works in, 10 min away, did pretty bad. He was texting me most of the night too, bc they were alerted first by fire depts and what not when to hunker down so he knew things before I did.
Glad you are all safe Tasha. Couldn’t imagine how scary that siren must be.
HOW CRAZY SCARY!!!!!!
Holy crap! Stay safe, and I hope your husband is staying safe too, being so close to it. Eeek
Thanks, all! I am thankful everyone is safe and that we didnβt get the damage. Honestly, I wasnβt scared. Just annoyed. Lol. We hardly ever get hit, the other town actually does. Not often, but still. Better safe than sorry. Weβre supposed to get another round tonight.
UGH, then just go to sleep in the basement tonight. That’s nuts.
Sirens went off here tonite too. Didnβt get hit. My daughter works in Lawrence KS, 20 miles away and a big tornado there with quite a bit of damage close to her work. Luckily she is fine but this is the worst year for tornadoes I have ever seen. And flooding in some areas of the state is bad.
Oh no, glad you guys are ok!!
I feel like thatβs all Iβm seeing everywhere, tornados and flooding. Itβs unusual here. More thunderstorms again tonight. There are fewer nice days than rain. Farmers havenβt even gotten their crops in this year.
YOU WILL LOVE MINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAD THE PLEASURE OF READING AN ARC.
Did you steal it?
LOL!!!! π I see what you did there. π
What am I missing Maryse?
‘Cause the book is called “Mine” and you had it. So bev wonders if you stole it from whoever labeled it as “Mine”. π
Er… at least, that’s what I got. π
Yes, from NetGalley! Smarty Pants! Are you the real bev who knows better? Or is this the fake one?
P.S. YES. That books sounds RIGHT UP my alley!! TOTALLY MINE!!!
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/1929477309?comment=192739389#comment_192739389
Mine looks great! It’s a shame Courtney Cole went through that, though.
The Secret Girl was great. I didn’t want to stop reading it. Finished it last night and ugh, she’s the queen of CH, I swear. But how it ended. NOPE. I reject that reality. π I will live in the hope that it’s a lie. Yep, I am happy in my NOPE bubble.
So, the end was so uh… horrible (book story eep wise, not like it was crap) that I had to find a book right away that would be lighter before sleeping. No more nightmares for me. Again, NOPE

Public service announcement:
Dear authors, if your book is set in California, please don’t have the characters swim in the ocean in the middle of winter. That ocean is COLD and it will set into your skin and body. Hypothermia and frostbite are actually a thing in the Pacific in the winter, even in warm San Diego. 58 degrees in water for hours is different than 58 degrees outside. Thank you!
From someone who had a quarter of her 8th-grade class get hypothermia from swimming in the Pacific in the winter during science camp and has gotten a little frostbite herself later due to the same form of stupidity.
Thank you for the very wise message! You can totally swim in Lake Michigan in the middle of winter…it’s called “dumbass disease”.
lol I know a few people who have that… π
I think the misconception is from surfers. Yes, surfers go into the ocean in the winter. With a wet suit, aren’t in the water, but instead on top of their boards, and (the smart ones) aren’t out there for hours, but instead, maybe an hour then take a hot shower to avoid getting sick. π
No one swims in it!
So funny Tessa! I wont even go in ocean here in the middle of summer!! Too cold. (we vacation @ beaches in NH or Maine)
I didn’t realize ocean was that cold in CA. I’ve only been there once and it was in June. I guess I thought CA was like more like Florida where you can swim all year round in certain areas of state. Obvs if I was writing a book, I’d do my research first though.
I know, right? But west coast water temperatures are the same as the northeast. San Diego is about the same temperature waters as New Jersey. More north (OC and above) you are looking at the temperatures of Connecticut/ Massachusettes or NH, Maine :D. So, I guess the thing is, if you are willing to go swimming in the ocean in Dec in (at most) New Jersey, have at it. lol
Me, I like warm. π
Only 27% into my latest read Her Perfect by Stephie Walls and I’m addicted!! Anyone in a slump? It’s a teacher/student scenario!!
Keep us in the loop, Linda. If I can remember right, Nancy (one of our fellow readers) LOVES that author. :D!!!
I LOVED that book
Eep! I was going to read Tillie Cole’s new prequel, but I’m going to have to check this out.
Morning ,
Okay seriously, I know I’m really late to the party but, The Cruel Prince and The Wicked King…OMG! β€οΈ We are talking 5 star love for both of them, for real… How long do I have to wait for The Queen of Nothing? It’s been fifteen minutes and I’m already having withdrawals over here!
Yay!!! So glad you loved them too! I think the Queen of Nothing is slated for November …do you think we can hope? I literally can’t wait either!!
November? Well, crap!
*evil grin* I knew you’d like it!
Grey
In case this can help you with the withdrawals, did you read book #1.5 between the two? https://www.maryse.net/reading-order-guide/holly-black-the-folk-of-the-air-series-reading-order.html
I did not know that?!? Thanks, Maryse!!! And Tessa…you’re lucky I love you, girl!
I didn’t know about that one either! YAY!
*hugs* Love you too Grey!
Just wanted to pop in real quick and give everyone a quick snuggle!
Last week was a 50+ hour week for me, and this week will be as well *heavy sigh* but the big news is…
WE ADOPTED A SWEET DOGGIE!!
She is a one-year-old, 70-pound German Shepherd and needed a home FAST so she wouldnβt have to go to the pound. It was a pretty quick event with us learning of her on Tuesday and bringing her home on Wednesday. Needless to say there has been some adjusting going on for all of us, but she is a sweetheart and Iβm. In. Love.
I havenβt been able to read AT ALL and I need to catch up on *counts on fingers* the last three posts and comments, but I miss you all! Iβll make more of an effort to pop in since things are starting to βnormalizeβ a bit now. Hugs all around!!!
Okay bev, except for you. *snort*
Aww! Congrats on your new dog!!!
OMG I LOVE German Shepherds!!!!!!
OMG, congrats! *hugs back* German Shepards are such sweet and loyal dogs too.
That is awesome Amy. He could be your running buddy.
Name?
And how is your husband’s allergies?
Wow! I can’t imagine having a big dog like that. It’s like having a child. π
Look how cute you are hugging Bev and her brushing you away? π
π
I hadn’t payed attention until you pointed it out.
Ooh! A new doggie!!! Love it. What’s her name? His name? I got bit once by a German Shepherd. So now if I see a BIG ONE, I get nervous. Sad, really, because I know they’re super sweet. So. Much. Hair.
Congrats, Amy! German Shepherds are such wonderful dogs!
I listened to Million Dollar Devil by Katy Evans yesterday and itβs not a fake marriage book! BUT it is a Cinderella/Pretty Woman/My Fair Lady story. She needs someone to be the face of her familyβs menswear line and no one will agree so she finds this daredevil in a bar who has a YouTube channel where he does things that people dare him to do for money. She cleans him up and molds him to be exactly what sheβs looking for. It was a fun book with a very dirty talking man and a buttoned up heroine!
I also listened to the new book by Kendall Ryan called Playing for Keeps and I really really liked it! It made me smile a lot and I caught myself laughing a few times! I love Jason Clarke as a narrator…her could read me almost anything and I would love it.
I read a bunch of jerk-face books lately; River Wild by Samantha Towle, Marriage for One by Ella Maisie, Boss I Love to Hate by Mia Kayla, Hotshot Doc by R.S. Grey, (a reread of) The Work Wife by C.J. MartΓn, One Percent of You by Michelle Gross and Faking Ms. Right by Claire Kingsley. They were all really good but I LOVED LOVED LOVED One Percent of You and Faking Ms. Right. I cannot recommend those books enough. (And I obviously love The Work Wife as that was a reread.)
Ahhhhh okay!! I will edit the post (thank you for the update). :D!!!!
Ashley–did you read the prequel of Faking Ms. Right–Everly Dalton’s Dating Disasters? I loved it! That’s the series I was telling Maryse about last week–The Dirty Martini Running Club. I’m also getting ready to read Faking Ms. Right. But first, I’m reading something more on the dark side.
Ooh! Tiger Catcher sounds amazing. Loved The Bronze Horseman trilogy, so this should be epic. And it has time travel. Woop woop. Only down side? It’s just the START of this trilogy, so it’s years of waiting. Boo!
But boy does she write amazing epic trilogies!!!
