Dezmond- I’m glad you had time off, but I missed you! Loved your commentary, singing, and humor per usual! Looking forward to “The..Louding Voice” sequel!!! Funny thing about book length- I got a book (The Bee Sting) through Libby for my Kindle, and I’ve been reading and reading. I had it on percentage that had been read along with the page number, and it seemed that no matter how many pages I read, the percentage never changed. Finally I decided to check the length, and it has 656 pages….656 PAGES!!! Luckily it’s an intriguing read with an interesting writing style, so I will keep going. It’s a good thing I didn’t know the length when I started it, or I might not have checked it out. 😊

That's the perfect memo for reading: Quality over Quantity every time Sometimes I find if I don't force reading, I end up finding good reads

It is so incredible to find a fellow reader with such similar taste! The girl with the louding voice was such an amazing read that I finally got to this month. Hold my hand which is the background was another amazing read and I just bought a copy of Guncle. Thank you for sharing! I look forward to your reviews and videos.

I've heard nothing but good things about The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store, too. I just got it not too long ago. Maybe a month ago, but haven't read it yet.

The books that made me cry was Before I Let Go by Kennedy Ryan and The Love Songs By W.E.B Du Bois. What happened to Lydia in the book had me emotional 🥹
@DezmondZ 27 күн бұрын
I keep saying I’ll read The Love Songs of W.E.B. Du Bois, but then I look at that page count.
@Britt-Britt 27 күн бұрын
@@DezmondZ I understand I was kind of intimidated about the page amount, but that was an amazing book. Try to set a month for it because you got to take your time with that book because it talks about a lot of people in the family that faced trauma (slavery, racism, elitism, colorism, drug use etc) when you read it ,it feels like you going through the journey along with the family members. Is it amazing book if you read it, you understand what I’m saying in this comment.❤️

Yikes! Someone else said it wasn’t good either.

So with you on 300-350 being my page limit for books! If it’s not a fantasy where there’s world building/magic system explanations, why does a fiction book need to be longer than 350 pages?!

The Fury gets terrible towards the end. I thought the beginning was okay. Be glad you DNF’d it.

Is “The Sequel” an adaption of the movie “The Words” with Bradley Cooper and Zoe Saldana? The way you explained that book, was bringing The Words vibe 😮. If you loved that book and haven’t seen the movie, You will Love the movie as well!!! 😍📚🎬📖🫡
