Nice book

Oh the length of this book in audio version... I really struggled to finish this book. The first half of the book seemed to drone on forever, without ever really getting interesting. The second half of the book is where it finally picked up! The tennis driven family of 6 in a twisting and turning whirlwind of who did it, where is mom, who is this stranger living with my parents, did dad kill mom was intriguing to say the least. I did watch the series after I read the book, it took some different turns, but ultimately told the same story. I would recommend watching the series, as it does the book justice, though reading the book - know it gets better in the second half when things are moving faster!

good book

So I saw that they made a TV Series based on this book, I have not watched it yet, I wanted to read it first. This book spoke to me in ways that reached me deeply. You have to ask yourself, "I've helped raise this child that is not mine, what am I willing to give up in life to keep her safe?" The twists and turns in this book kept me engaged. The snarky teenage angst came through flawlessly. I can't wait to see if the series holds a flame to the book version.

In 1866,a large monster believed to be a narwhal was found at sea.French biologist arena was invited to participate in the hunt.But a submarine of fantastic construction.

Interesting read involving a Latinx fantastical world about Brujas and magic. A girl, Alejandra, must journey through a mystical world to save her family but she has to learn to find herself first. A bit cliche but overall fun read.

Nice

This was a fun quirky kind of read. Very much a young adult style book, dealing with high school love and dealing with Charlie's personal struggle with her weight. It was interesting how the main character dealt with not only the loss of a parent, but how she dealt with the parent left behind that made her feel self conscious of her weight. I think we as women all struggle with the stereotypes of not thinking we are loved when we don't love our own bodies.

Great
