Who is also an immortal. Damn the bad luck! lol What about you? “Whoever finds love
Quick Book Review - Thursday Edition:
The Cold Vanish by Jon Billman
The book is about people who have gone missing in the wilderness in America/Canada. The central story revolves around the disappearance of Jacob Gray, and his father's quest to find him. The narration was good/okay overall, but it got boring at times, so much so that I was left wondering why I was even reading this book? Luckily, it wasn't long, and I finished in a single afternoon. I read different topics/genres, and the subject matter intrigued me, but it was more push to finish versus "I can't put it down." My Last Minute Thoughts:
More reviews out soon~ How are you feeling about 2022? I know it's too soon to tell, but here's to hoping it's a better year. I just hopped over to Goodreads and saw my yearly book stats. I will share some of them below. I often don't review books on the Goodread site, but write a quick non-spoiler review here or vice versa. If you are wondering about any book on my list, just leave me a comment and I will give you the skinny on it. I seem to like books in the 300-500 page range, over that and I feel kinda trapped by the book...unless it's really, really good. I did read a small 33 page one this year that ended way too soon. This year I read about:
I read for knowledge, entertainment, escapism, and to understand other people's outlook on the world. What are your favorite types of books? What makes them the best? I will be posting more in the coming months as I am working a bit less.
Hopefully, we can meet up here and discuss books, food, and other fun topics! Speak soon~ The Magic Mountain - Der Zauberberg by Thomas Mann
The Magic Mountain is a novel by Thomas Mann, first published in November 1924. It is widely considered to be one of the most influential works of the 20th-century in German literature. The story opens in the decade before World War I. It introduces Hans Castorp, the only child of a Hamburg merchant family. He is in his early 20's, about to take up a shipbuilding career in Hamburg. He visits his cousin Joachim Ziemssen, who is in a luxury sanatorium in the Swiss Alps, and we are introduced to a memorable cast of characters as the story unfolds. My Last Minute Thoughts:
More reviews out soon~ Leviathan Falls: Expanse, Book 9
The last book in the Expanse series. If you are a fan of the television show or the series you must read it. It was an emotional, but not surprising end. (Insert sad face here.) I'm not ready to let the characters go just yet. My Last Minute Thoughts:
June was such a busy month I had no time to post! Between working, writing, and exploring, I came home, crawled into bed, and slept like a baby. There have been some dramatic sunsets and some frightening fires, flooding and hot weather this summer. New Mexico is experiencing fires and monsoons...so that it has been an adventure just driving down the mountain. I have been binge-reading rather than watching Netflix. And will have a few new book reviews up for you shortly.
Right now, I'm late for a dinner date in town and need to at least brush my hair before I make the trip down the mountain, Have a great July, and I promise to be back soon with more recipes and reviews. Later~ |
