I have this too and am yet to start, the length is so daunting
how are you finding it? I read Michelle Obama's last year and enjoyed that.Not too bad, apparently he’s doing another one from his presidency so you can tell it’s building, it’s fine but nothing special yetI have this too and am yet to start, the length is so daunting
I've finished "The end of men" now. I started it yesterday evening and definitely felt gripped by it. I would recommend it for anyone who enjoys this sort of genre. That is book number 30 for the year. And to think my original aim was 12
My kindle is on charge and Love Island isn't far away so I think the next read will be tomorrow at the earliest.

This is why I struggled with hardbacks. I just don't find them comfortable to read whatsoever!
I adored The End of Men (although reading about a pandemic in a pandemic makes you feel like a glutton for punishment).
I’ve just bought Three Hours by Rosamund Lupton which I think will be my next read. Anyone read it?

I enjoyed Three Hours, very tense.
It was the first book I read this year and I still think it’s my favourite. Top 3 are Three Hours, Last One at the Party and What She Knew (in changing order depending on what my mood is!).
Recently finished A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara. WOW loved it 
Storming through What She Knew now and enjoying it so far!

Hi all. Have been watching this thread for a while.. so 1st off big thank you, some of the recommendations from this thread got me out of my reading funk of.. years lol.
So far finished:
Snowflake Louise Nelson 2021. (3/5. I was disappointed, even as a irish woman I can't big it up im afraid...)
Worst Idea Ever Jane Fallon- Audio (3/5- easy listening)
1. Good Girl Bad Girl
2 When She Was Good Michael Robotham. Both 5/5 loved them.
Currently reading The Seven sisters by Lucinda Riley. About half way so... il stick it out but not loving it.
Can anyone who has read Michael Robothams books recommend another author with similar style/genre? Must be my mood but finding them great. Have read all the Lee Child series too. Those pesky audible credits are precious. Already been told I can't do anymore returns

Currently reading book 2 of A Court of Thorn and Roses by Sarah J Maas (A court of Mist and Fury). I tend to miss super popular books as they are so hyped about it puts me off and I’m reluctant to follow the hype train, but I was given the first book so read it. Was so put off when I learned it was loosely based on beauty and the beast but honestly it’s it’s own story. I’d recommend, especially if you like fantasy/love stories.
Omg yay! I had no idea this thread was a thing! i am glad to have seen it! I love to share my excitement about books, especially because i feel like only other readers will understand that thrill of getting a new book in the post (and also because there comes a point where I can't keep rambling to my sister about how nice this specific edition of a classic is, and how much I want even more books, despite needing to get through the ones I've already got)
I am currently reading Crime and Punishment, and I'm about 70% of the way in, and have been enjoying myself a lot with it! I am also reading The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman, which I haven't been dipping into as much, and am only around 20 pages in.
My book buying has been kind of out of control lately, but that and reading are pretty much my only source of dopamine right now, so my bank account will have to forgive me~

I started The Passengers by John Marrs last night. Two chapters in and loving it! Looking forward to my lunch break today so I can get some more read.
I really enjoyed this one too! He’s got a new one out called the vacation that I’m eyeing up!
Ive read a bit more of What She Knew and finding it a bit better 
I'm reading Disclaimer by Renee Knight at the moment. Somewhat interesting and engaging writing style plus slight clues that don't stand out when you're reading until later BUT:
It just feels like the author took a very simple premise and didn't do much with it to me idk
I got to the part where it's revealed what the book is about and the husband gets upset about it all. It's so... stupid. That's honestly all I can say. I got mad enough to further read spoilers on what the actual 'twist' is and even that just seems really underwhelming, though I'm going to push through the book for the sake of it.

This is one of my favourite books!
I decided to try out this new series (since I have kindle unlimited) and I'm hooked after finishing the first one last night. It had some harrowing scenes at times but I was impressed with the storyline and the few twists /cliffhanger at the end of a few chapters increased my interest.
