Book club – Choose your own adventure

Posted on by Shawshank

Good morning book nerds! I said I’d post about which book to read next, and here it is! I’m posting early, in hopes that this post will get shared, and commented on. Tomorrow, I’ll post the results and I’ll talk about the first chapter of which ever book you guys and gals decide for me!

I think this will be fun, and I hope for maximum audience participation! So reshare, and comment my beautiful book nerds!

So without further adieu, I present the three books fighting to be read first. So here’s the deal. The book with the most votes, I’ll read first, next, second, and so forth. Fun!

So, vote early, vote often, just like in the US elections! I can’t wait to see what y’all decide! Until tomorrow, book nerds!

Book club: Plain Bad Heroines

Posted on by Shawshank

Hello book nerds! I feel so much better now that I’ve finally finished Plain Bad Heroines by Emily M. Danforth! It’s like some weight has been lifted off of me. I accomplished something the been literally months in the making.

It’s the journey, not the ending.

The ending was ok, it didn’t seem too rushed, like in the case of The Arctic Fury. But lemme tell you, that the last 15-20 pages felt like they just flew through my fingers.

This was a great book, it sucks you right in right from the beginning. I really liked it.

Tomorrow, dear book nerds, I’ll be posting an informal poll, to see which book I should read next. It’ll be easy – 3 books, and all you have to do is comment and tell me which one you want me to read first, second, and third.

Until tomorrow, nerds of the books!

Book club – Plain Bad Heroines

Posted on by Shawshank

Good afternoon, book nerds! It’s been a while, hasn’t it? Life had me busy for a little while. Well, life has slowed down a little, so I am able to read a little more.

I made some progress on Plain Bad Heroines by Emily M. Danforth. Not a lot, but I’m getting back into the swing of things, and that makes me happy.

We’re really getting into the meat and potatoes of the story. It’s been a slow burn, but the chapters are starting to feel like they’re flying by.

In the book, they’re starting to film on location and the school. They’re starting to find that somethings are getting creepier, and not explainable.

I’m still in joying the dual timelines. Although, I am liking the current time line the best, as that’s the one that seems to be moving the plot forward.

Enjoy the rest of your Monday, book nerds! See you next time!

Book club – Update.

Ok, I know I’ve stopped reading, but I have a really good excuse. Over the last couple of weeks, I’ve been moving. I’ll be 100% moved in on Thursday the first of April.

So that means, I’ll be able to start up the Lockup Library Book Club right where we left off. In fact, I kinda jumped in right where I left off the day before yesterday.

It’s been a while, so I’m still getting up to speed from where I left off. Have y’all still been reading? I feel guilty for not reading. However, one of the first loads I took were all my books. But a couple of days ago, before work, and with a cup of coffee, I dived back in.

It’s gonna be nice to just sit down in the mornings, and read for a little bit.

So bear with me book nerds! I will return!!
