I love to read. I'm usually reading at least 3 books at a time. They're not all good... some are really bad. I have trouble not finishing books though. Now CBR has doubled down on that trouble, because I want to get credit for reading the bad ones too!

But they told so many lies this title doesn’t make sense!

All the Lies They Did Not Tell by Pablo Trincia

November 26, 2022 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

The tag line of this book was “The true story of Satanic Panic in an Italian community”. I’m not sure it’s called a tag line, but cut me some slack. It’s the words under the title, and my poor tired brain can’t remember what that’s called! The tag line (or whatever!) should’ve been “The probably made up story of a bunch of kids who said their parents molested them and did semi-Satanic things”. I was not satisfied with the conclusion of this book. It’s literally […]

Holy crap. This was not good.

Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover

November 26, 2022 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

This book was recommended to me by nobody. My BFF did recommend Colleen Hoover, but I think this may be one of her earlier books. Holy crap I did not like it. First of all, I listened to the audiobook, and the male narrator (Deacon Lee) had a voice or manner of speaking that kinda made my skin crawl? I’m not sure exactly what it was, but I did not like when he talked. Unfortunately, he talked for about half of the book. Which I […]

Twisty, revengy, and a quick read

The Collective by Alison Gaylin

November 26, 2022 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

Wow this book. I think I read it in three days, and that’s just reading at night before I went to bed. I know I stayed up until midnight a few nights because I couldn’t stop reading this. My best friend recommended it to me a while ago, and I just recently borrowed the ebook from the library. It’s a pretty satisfying premise. The main character Camille is still grieving her daughter five years after she died. A local college student was tried and acquitted […]

Who would’ve thought a book about birds would be so deep?

Migrations by Charlotte McConaghy

November 26, 2022 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

I can’t remember if I randomly found this book because I liked the author, or because I liked the narrator. Either way, I liked the narrator! This was another book that was so very long, and I didn’t really think it needed to be so long. It’s about a woman named Franny Stone. She’s obsessed with the last flock of Arctic terns, and following them on their migratory journey. She tries to talk every ship captain she meets into letting her hitch a ride on […]

Lots and lots and lots and lots of tennis. But also maybe some murder?

Apples Never Fall by Liane Moriarty

November 26, 2022 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

I asked my sister if she read this book, because we both love Liane Moriarty. Her answer was “Ugh, the tennis one?”. Yes dear readers, this is the tennis one. If there are 10,000 words in this book (it’s long, so I’m sure there are way more), 7,500 of them are related to tennis. It didn’t really bother me, but apparently it bothered my sister! It’s funny, and I know I’ve said this before, but Liane Moriarty is the only author I seem to enjoy […]

A Later Hercule Poirot Mystery

Five Little Pigs (Hercule Poirot #22) by Agatha Christie

November 26, 2022 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

I’m not sure if this is my second or third Hercule Poirot book. I originally started reading this as a combo book of number 1 (ummm the poisoning one – They Mysterious Affair at Styles) and this one, which is number 22. I’ve seen Death on the Nile, the train one (it’s probably Agatha Christie blasphemy to not remember the name – Murder on the Orient Express), and maybe another Poirot movie? When you read so many books and watch so many movies sometimes they […]
