It's Friday linkup time! I'm linking up with the Book Blogger Hop hosted by Coffee Addicted Writer, Book Beginnings of Fridays hosted by Rose City Reader, and the Friday 56 hosted by Freda's Voice
This Week's Book Blogger Hop Question:
Do you subscribe to any book subscription boxes?
My Answer:
No but I'd like to try one. At first most seemed to be YA themed which isn't a genre I usually enjoy but I've seen a few mystery ones lately. Any recommendations?
The Beginning:
Elizabeth had to tell more lies on a Sunday morning at church than she ever had trying to cheat a mark out of fifty thousand dollars.
My Thoughts:
I'm so happy to see Elizabeth again! I'm so curious to see just how well she fits into society.
The 56:
Unfortunately, he wasn't able to meet his mother's eye which made her suspicious.
My Thoughts:
Never lie to your mother! She always knows!
So what do you think? Keep reading? Are you subscribed to any bookish subscription books?
Ha! I love that beginning! This one looks fun. :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you are so excited about this new book by Thompson. She's such a nice lady. No, I haven't tried any of the subscription boxes. I'm much more inclined to do something like 'book of the month' or similar. The extra stuff would probably not interest me much.
ReplyDeleteWhat a delightful looking book! The cover and the excerpts make me want to read more.
ReplyDeleteHere's mine: “NINE PERFECT STRANGERS”
Well, I kind of want to know why she had to tell so many lies in church, so yeah, keep reading.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great weekend. - Katie
Imagine, lying at church. She's definitely gonna burn for that one.... LOL
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!
I'll have to look for this one too. I also enjoyed the first book. This week I am spotlighting Those Who Go By Night by Andrew Gaddes - a medieval mystery from my review stack. Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteSo why is she trying to cheat someone for that much money? That is what I want to know. Doesn't sound like a good idea. My Friday Quotes and review
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear the book is living up to your expectations.
ReplyDeleteFrom what I've experienced so far, I definitely recommend the OwlCrate box! I snagged a limited edition box and loved it!
ReplyDeleteI have a library copy of City of Lies, which I really want to start soon. I love her other series.
ReplyDeleteI remember you liked this one more than I did. I am curious is there more mystery in this one or is it still more of a romance than a mystery?
ReplyDeleteThere are definitely a few adult boxes floating around! There are a few I'd like to try someday too!
ReplyDeleteHow did I miss subscription boxes? Probably just as well, I spend enough money on books.
ReplyDeleteMothers have an uncanny ability knowing when you are lying. I hope you end up loving this one. Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteThose are great snippets. I definitely want to know why she's having to lie so much at church.
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoy this one - and I completely agree - lying to mother is never a good strategy:))
ReplyDeleteBBH: I don't have any book boxes subscriptions either.
ReplyDeleteFriday 56: The snippet sounds interesting.
I have seen a few of those subscription boxes but well, I don't have the space to store books here. I had looked into a mystery one for my mom as a gift but didn't plunge into doing it.
