  Now that is interesting- especially if you have read his work.

I just saw the movie and loved it. Imagining the books will be fabulous.

  I have started reading the first book – and have laughed a number of times already even though I have only read a couple of chapters.

My perfect birthday gift is to spend the day with my entire family and top it off with a simple dinner where we can all relax and share conversation (as much as is possible with chatty five-year-old and 21-month-old granddaughters)!

  Definitely a perfect gift. Spending time with family is so precious especially in our busy lives.

Christmas came early! 🎄 Thank you to @harpercollinsca and @hccfrenzy for gifting me with interesting ARCs to read. I can’t wait to dig into this #bookstack 🎄 #bookblogger #arcs #saturdaystack #gifts #bookstagram #booklover #bookishlife

I started reading a rom-com I had seen all over Instagram when it came out. I am a couple of chapters in and I am loving it! ❄️ Have you read The Hating Game by Sally Thorpe? The banter in this one reminds me of Thorne’s novel and has already made me laugh. I look forward to to enjoying more pages later today. No Netflix tonight! 🤣 ❄️ #currentlyreading #romcoms #booksharkhollydays #booksharks #romance #bookstagramreads #bookishcanadians #booksandchristmas #booksandchristmastrees

I woke up this morning to some more snow falling. It looks so pretty outside. ❄️ #winterwonderland #snowfall #snow #snowoutside #snowinthecity #winter #winteriscoming #fallsnowfall

The Wives has an unusual premise as polygamy is not a usual thread that runs in thrillers - but Tarryn Fisher makes it work. 📖 Near the midway of the novel I was confused as the setup I believed to be true turned out to be different. As expected, a twist soon followed! 📖 After the twist, the pace of the novel picked up and I became more invested in the story as the content became more interesting. 📖 The Wives is an enjoyable psychological thriller that does not get too intense. The pace in the beginning is a bit slow but it does pick up. This is a novel you can read quickly and not think too deeply about. 📖 #minireview #booksofhcc #bookbloggger #psychologicalthriller #tarrynfisher #thewives #bookstagramreads #bookishcanadians #harperpresents

During November I managed to read 8 titles - the ones pictured here as well as 3 library books. 📚 My favourite by far were two of the fantasy novels: Serpent and Dove by Shelby Mahurin, and Infinity Son by Adam Silvera. Both were 5 stars reads for me. 📚 I have a hard time choosing my favourite. Have you read both? Which one would win a battle of the best? 📚 #fantasyfiction #yafantasy #monthlywrapup #bookishcanadians #bookstack #bookstagram #bookblogger

Eliyana has always recoiled from her own reflection in the mirror because of the blemish that covers half of her face. 📖 One night when her mother doesn’t return home, Eliyana’s world is turned upside down. She finds herself on an adventure in another world where she finds within herself an inner strength she did not know she had. 📖 As the story unfolds, so does a love triangle. Will she still love Joshua, the boy who seems perfect for her? Or will she gravitate towards Ky, a bad boy who seems to bring out her inner courage? 📖 Unblemished is a fantasy novel that incorporates romance, adventure, and the magical quality of the genre. Definitely an enjoyable read. 📖 #fantasyseries #yafantasy #bookstagram #bookreview #minireview #bookishcandians #bookblogger
