Update I finished it heres my full review of this book I have mix feeling about this book like the first 35% of the book all I cared about was the grandmother,the podcast episode chapters which was freaking fantastic loved all the effects of the podcast and the Texas vibes Thats about it and then I kept reading n reading and it started to get better but then it kinda fell of a cliff when the spice happened that part didn't need to b there at all n the parts with her starting to remember that night I kinda get it bc of the head Injury n Amnesia Aspect of it but it was getting kinda Repetitive with the whole I don't remember that night or people saying she killed her bestfriend like yeah I get it I don't need to be told over n over again but over all u enjoyed this one was it the best thriller I have read no it wasn't bc I have read Thrillers where I was on toes at every turn of the page this one was just ok

Amnesia in a thriller or mystery is my favorite! So much so that I did a research paper on amnesia for a high school class. I gave Listen for the Lie five stars, but I agree that the ending was just okay. The grandma, podcast, friendship, and Lucy's sarcasm I loved.

Yay! I’m so glad you gave that book five stars! I loved it but I can see why other people may not enjoy it. But I am already highly anticipating what that author writes next!

Ahhhh I’m so happy you loved The Eyes Are The Best Part, I’m super excited to read that one. Also I’m so happy because Julia Bartz has a new book on her goodreads page supposedly coming out next year🥳🥳. Not sure if you knew that already but thought I’d let you know lol

What I had no idea!! How exciting 🤩🤩🤩

@Teenas_Booksandblankets Ай бұрын

So I loved The Rom-Commers, but I completely agree with the writing style. It drove me crazy how many times the MC would address the “reader”. It was strange to me. But, I still loved it and Charlie grew on me. I do understand how others wouldn’t like it, though. I haven’t read the other books you read for this video, but they are on my TBR. 😊

@sharaththallapally5208 Ай бұрын

I felt the same about listen for the lie Gabby, it's not at all jaw dropping or twisty like everyone raving. I also rated it 3 ⭐

@april44rei Ай бұрын

I have read 4 Katherine Center books (How to walk away, things you save in a fire, The Bodyguard and What you wish for), and I would say her books are just average reads. I decided to skip Hello Stranger because of your review and now I am thinking of skipping The Rom-comers too. 😅 out of Katherine Center books that I have read, The Bodyguard and What You wish for are the standouts. Thanks for the review😊

@justinkhchen Ай бұрын

Darling Girls was my first Sally Hepworth, and it was a good time (more of a drama/mystery). Listen for the Lie was decent (a bit of a cozy mystery vibe; though I might rate it lower have I just read it instead of auidiobook). The Eyes are the Best Part blew me away when I read its ARC, so happy to see you enjoyed it!

@douluvmee Ай бұрын

We so think alike!!! I had the same opinion about “listen for the lie” it was average at best! Even when I went to buy it, the cashier said she really loved this book. So I had very high expectations but it wasn’t all that good . I always look for your 5 star recommendations!!

@megandent4580 Ай бұрын

So happy you enjoyed that last book! I gave it 5 stars, too.

lol talking about the fish and eyes and all that I went to a restaurant with a friend and ordered something I hadn’t tried before. And then I tell you the second that came out of the kitchen doors, THE SECOND I knew it was my plate. The fish was massive and they had it propped up on a lemon wedge so it was like sitting up on the plate just looking at me. Like no thank you do yall sell chicken fingers 😅😅😅 ohhhh good times.

I think authors keep doing that “well, readers…” thing now in their narrative style because Bridgerton is narrated in that way and the show is so popular right now.

I know you said you don't typically like sour drinks HOWEVER, the Warhead Sour Watermelon and Sour Patch Kids Blue Raspberry are tied for my favorites! So SO good. I drink one when I really need to get some housework done. 😂 Editing to add how happy I am you loved The Eyes because it's my favorite book of the year so far and I'm not sure how it'll be beat. Your reactions mirrored so many of my own and ugh it's just SO GOOD. I've been screaming at people to read it at my bookstore and I'm hosting my first bookclub with it in July just to bully people to read it further. 😂

Im currently reading listen for the lie and im about 34% into the book and there are only three things i care about 1. The grandmother love her shes hilarious 2. The podcast chapters love that part of the book the effects are so good 3. The Texas vibes Thats it everything else i just dont care about like lucy is suspicious like i dont trust her at all and i agree with wah u said about it begin repetitive like i get it she has murder thoughts of murding people she just looks at and the Amnesia part of this book i dont really like i just wish we got flashback early in the book or at least something but its reading like a 2 or 3 star for mi but i will updste this coment once im done 😂😂

@teresarollen7425 Ай бұрын

I immediately went and requested The Eyes Are the Best Part from Libby. I am number 5 in line for it. I can't wait to listen to it. Anything to do with the eyes always makes me squesmish, but I am still going to list to it. I can't imagine eating the eyeballs or even the head of a fish. Yuck!

Its so funny to me when the main character in a thriller has amnesia because I actually went through a terrible, traumatic experience and the whole experience is all black to me except for a few moments. I got put on PTSD meds because when the black started to clear here and there it was super disturbing and interrupted my life. It's crazy but does happen lol.

If you say the character, George, is gross and creepy then I'll accept that appraisal, Otherwise, I'd say something like it can be difficult entering into a relationship with a person because almost always you have to surrender some part of yourself. On the same topic, I too have never been a big fish eater, though I do like a good piece of salmon.

The amount of typos in Darling Girls was egregious and very distracting for me. Not sure if it was just the BOTM editions - maybe it was, since I know you mentioned typos being distracting in another recent book you read, so I was kinda surprised you didn't mention it for this one.

Love your vids but I’d like to say that eating fish eyeballs is part of a lot of asian cultures (like you mentioned in Japan). I get it that it may not be appealing to others out of our culture but to say “disgusting” and continues to gag was quite disrespectful, especially if you’ve been consistently loving Korean culture
