Funny Friday

Funny Friday started as book-related humor and then shifted into COVID-19 humor. I decided to stop limiting it to one thing and it will now be whatever I find that’s funny and relevant to me.

Every time someone mentions how nice it is outside. I’m not an outdoorsy girl…

Every Last Secret by A.R. Torre. The ending let me down a bit, but this was a pretty good read, otherwise.

The Road Trip by Beth O’Leary. This was one of my most anticipated books of the year and it’s just ok for me so far. Most of the characters are insufferable and it’s really slow paced. It’s also told in alternate timelines and while I’m ok with the present timeline, I really dislike pretty much everything about the past chapters. I’m really hoping there’s a great ending or something to make this worth it.

Anne of Manhattan by Brina Starler. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an Anne of Green Gables re-telling, so I’m very curious to see what this is like.

Never Saw me Coming by Vera Kurian. I actually really enjoyed this one. Finally a book with a good concept that lived up to it’s potential. My review for this will post later this month.

How to Kill Your Best Friend by Lexie Elliott. I’m about a third of the way through and am so far pretty bored with this. I’ve browsed reviews on Goodreads and a lot of them say it picks up towards the end and there’s some twists, so I’m going to power through.

So, my current book is my last ARC on my TBR shelf and I don’t have any library books at the moment. So I’m not sure what I’ll read next, but it will be WHATEVER I WANT! I’m looking forward to taking a bit of a break and mood reading.

In the Now by Jennifer Ann Shore. I came upon this one randomly when browsing KU and found it pretty enjoyable. I’ll probably try out more from this author in the future.

Find You First by Linwood Barclay. I always look forward to a Linwood Barclay book and I’m liking this one so far.

On the Way to the Wedding (Bridgertons #8) by Julia Quinn. I am so sad to be done with this series! However, I guess I still do have one more short story to read. All the copies of the books I read contained the 2nd epilogues, but those were also all put together in one book and that book also has a story about the mother, Violet, so I’m on hold for that at the library.  Then I’ll truly be done with the series. Until I do a binge re-read, which I am absolutely planning on.

Match Made in Paradise (Paradise, Alaska #1) by Barbara Dunlop. I thought this sounded cute (and similar to the The Simple Wild) and I did enjoy it at first, but then I got pretty bored with it and am struggling with the characters. I’m a little over half way through, but I might just call it.

The Other Passenger by Louise Candlish. I am not too far into this yet, but it grabbed me right away. I have high hopes it will continue to entertain.

Forbidden by Karla Sorensen comes out tomorrow, so it will probably be my last book I read from KU before my subscription ends next week. I hate the title and the cover, but I’ve been waiting for Isabel’s story to wrap up this series.

Such a Quiet Place by Megan Miranda. I’m a little over half way through and finally something JUST happened to actually advance the plot. The main character is driving me insane, too. Unless there’s some terrific twists still to come, I don’t think this is going to be a winner for me.

I’ve only read one chapter of Win by Harlan Coben so far and then I set it down to read a couple other things and now I don’t really feel interested to pick it back up. I’ll probably let this go back to the library and try borrowing it again sometime down the road.

On the Way to the Wedding (Bridgertons #8) by Julia Quinn. I just got this from the library and am anxious to start it, though I am really sad that this is the last book in the series!
