I read it back in 2022 and loved it. I didn’t know it was a series. Not sure if I’d want to watch after having loved the book.Has anyone read 56 days? I watched the series last week and then read the blurb from the book. They're very different but I guess it needed to be adapted for American audiences. One thing that made me lol was the pronunciation of Ciara which is an Irish name.
It's pronounced with a hard C, actually just add an a to the end of Kier Stammer's first name and that's how it's said. In the series she was called SierraJust an observation of mine.
Mind you, I’m now going to contradict myself with my answer to @aalmaalm and say yes, it’s also one of my favourite books and I’m definitely going to see the film!
So yes, I’m a walking contradiction
I can’t wait for it! And Funnily enough I actually started watching 56 days last night! Haven’t read it though, may give it a go!I read it back in 2022 and loved it. I didn’t know it was a series. Not sure if I’d want to watch after having loved the book.

I read the blurb, and couldn’t remember a thing about the book even though I’ve definitely read it! My favourite of hers is November 9, I love it!Anyone going to be watching reminders of him later this month? I know it’s another Colleen hoover but I will stand by it’s honestly one of my fave booksand I read it after I was off the hoover hype
I read it in 2021 and thought it was brilliant. Another good one of hers is The Nothing Man.Has anyone read 56 days? I watched the series last week and then read the blurb from the book.

Anyway, I have started the series. Seems very different but still enjoyable at the moment.
I’ve recently read The Nothing Man and agree with @HoGi - really good book.
In other news, I ordered five books earlier. Supposed to be on a book buying ban whilst I work my way through my bookcase, whoops. Book vouchers + double points were too hard to resist.
I’ve gone for:
Three Days in June - Anne Tyler
Slags - Emma Jane Unsworth
It Should Have Been You - Andrea Mara
The Protest - Rob Rinder
Lights Out - Navessa Allen

I finally got my hands on Shark Heart after reserving it from the library last JUNE 
Gosh was worth the wait, I wouldn’t give it 5 stars because I’ll admit it took me a sec to get into it but once I did, the tears wouldn’t stop flowing

Ooh I had no idea about this!!Just reminded me - this is coming 5 November.....
**furiously adds to cart**A lovely early birthday present for me
I'm currently listening to Atlas, The Story Of Pa Salt on audio - read by Richard Armitage and Tuppence Middleton. He's either acting whilst reading it or getting a bit emotional himself.Ooh I had no idea about this!!

I only got about half way through The Seven Sisters series because they won't discount the next one on Kindle 
If I ever go back to it I'll have forgotten everything. I don't remember that character at all even though I've read The Shadow Sister!

I got all mine from the library and then bought the ones I couldn't live without......and I was ruthless with myself, so I think only 3.I only got about half way through The Seven Sisters series because they won't discount the next one on Kindle

Naturally one I kept had a bookshop in it. I think that's the one that has Orlando in it.
Has anyone read Stoner by John Williams? I have been seeing it everywhere over the last few months, and then it popped up on kindle daily deals during the week so I had to purchase. Think it might be my next read!
Theo the Golden reminded me of a Fredrik Backman. A bit too sentimental for my liking.
I finally got around to reading I’m Glad my Mom Died and was a bit disappointed. I think I expected it to go deeper. It felt a bit superficial.
Almost finished The Devil You Know- about forensic psychiatry. It’s interesting but I want more somehow, but I’m not sure what!

it’s one of my favourite, but most devastating, reads of all time. it will quietly and politely break your heart
EXCELLENT. This is exactly what I want. I shall report back in due course! xit’s one of my favourite, but most devastating, reads of all time. it will quietly and politely break your heart
I have just finished Foster by Claire Keegan and I’m sobbing at the beauty of it and raging that it ended where it did. I wanted more. I was that little girl being taken back home and my heart broke for her.

I had to write notes on my phone for this series.
Some books were great, some where pah!
800 day streak for me today

I don't need any books, so they are pre orders so they don't count as buying them now because I don't pay for them now. But I still get the double stamps.
The fact that I nearly choked on my drink at £12.99 for a paperback shows how out of touch I am with buying physical books
