In reply to Debby Raynor. While I definitely won't use audible for everything, I've been really enjoying it for "educational" books! I definitely speed through it much easier. People tell me that all the time, but I honestly go through phases. Sometimes I'm reading 3-5 books in a week, and then there's other months where I'll only read one! Thanks so much for reading and commenting :) x

In reply to alwayscleia. She was really weird, and in my mind I kept thinking, people don't really act like this! Like we all know better. Idk it was okay, but definitely didn't deserve the hype at all.

In reply to Melina Elisa. The main character drove me crazy!! She was stalking that random musician guy and it was sooo cringe worthy. I don't understand why it was on everyone's radar for so long haha That's true, and now that we're heading into Fall & Winter there will probably be a lot more time for reading! I'm looking forward to curling up all winter by the fireplace with a book.. I miss our chats too!

Have just discovered you too. Love the reviews. I too have just signed up for Audible and am making fast work of things that I may have taken a lot longer with. I have no idea how you manage to read so many books though 🙂 I'm not even at half that for this year yet.

In reply to alwayscleia. omg, I was so embarrassed, because I was the one who wanted to read the book within my book club, and it honestly wasn't very good in my opinion! I think it was a little awkwardly written, and it took me wayy too long to get into the book itself. I think the last 100 pages or so were okay, but I don't think that I would recommend the book when there are so many better books to spend time reading instead! Everyone in my book club agreed that the book was only sub-par. I'm glad you agree as well. I was extremely disappointed with the book, and am confused as to why this book was so hyped. Thanks so much! I love reading, it's honestly such an escape for me. You still have time to get some extra reading in! I hope you're doing well, miss our lil chats :) xx

In reply to Jenny in Neverland. Yeah, while there are certain things I know on the topic from other books, I don't actually know much of the history of racial inequality in the UK! I honestly didn't know it was a huge issue like it is in the states. I'm glad you liked the book as much as I currently am. Thanks so much for reading and commenting xx

I've not long finished Why I'm No Longer Talking To White People and I thought it would take me ages but it actually didn't! Such a good read. So informative and really opened my eyes to a lot of things x
