I love White Cat! The Curseworkers are actually my favorite Holly Black series–more than Folk of the Air <3

I’ll have to decide which format to read the Illuminae Files in, as I do like the idea of the series. And I saw White Cat’s cover and laughed again at remembering where you placed it in your bookshelf.
Meeghan reads
Painkillers… don’t take them and then organise your shelves by colour…
I do recommend the audiobook for Illuminae, it’s got a whole cast and it’s got excellent reviews. (I’m a physical book person though…)
dbsguidetothegalaxy
?? painkillers and any type of work are usually not a great combo.
I’m just confused as I know the series is all mixed media? Which is why I thought the book for like emails/blacked out reports (I’m trying to pull the memories from bookstagrams ?
Meeghan reads
Mostly the blacked out words are swear words… But yes, it’s a mix of interview transcripts, video transcripts/descriptions, instant messaging logs, code, emails and briefs.

Yeah I’ve seen all that – which sounds really cool. But I don’t know which format it’ll be best in ? ?
Isabelle @ BookwyrmBites
for all we talk about judging books by covers, it’s so satisfying to see those purple covers side-by-side … even though the books don’t have much in common ?
Eleanor Oliphant and Ace of Shades continue to hang out on my TBR, so I’m definitely looking forward to seeing what you think of them – and of the Kiss Quotient & Bride Test!
currently I’m reading Jade War and Keeping Lucy, both of which are ARCs that I’m enjoying, but I’m not very far into either so we’ll see I guess ?
Meeghan reads
Ohhh, ARCs that don’t hold my attention are becoming almost chore-like to read… ?

Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine has been super hyped and I’ve seen so many 5 star reviews, so I’m curious to see what you think of it. And lol, good luck with 6 books! I’d never be able to keep the different story-lines straight!!! Happy reading ?
J.R. @ Eternity Books
I also dropped a comment on your post for the Book Blogger Award Nominations, but it wasn’t showing and I wanted to make sure you got my message! If it isn’t there, I’ll try posting it again ?
Meeghan reads

Meeghan reads

J.R. @ Eternity Books

Meeghan reads

Beware Of The Reader

Meeghan reads
I will!!!!! Thanks Sophie ?
Kal @ Reader Voracious
WHY DO YOU HAVE SO MANY CURRENT READS OH MY GOD!?!?!?! hahaha I can’t juggle more than 2 at a time
Meeghan reads
Uhhhhh… it’s kind of like I’m reading a book, and then I see something shiny, and then I forget that I’m already reading 4 books and start another 2. Or I’ve “put them down to come back to later” but these ones I really do want to come back to.

Great post!! I’ve started Stepsister and I’m so excited to get further into it!!!
Meeghan reads
Yeah, it’s a really interesting premise!! I like how they’ve taken the retelling, but also introduced Chance and the three fates. So good!!
Ruqs
Yes, very intriguing so far!
