Started listening Hereafter by Tara Hudson

 

Hello Bookies,

I started a new audio book. It is still weird for me to fully grasp a book without actually reading it. I probably missed a whole lot trying to listen to this one at work. I'm about a quarter of the way through the book and I feel like I haven't learned anything. All I can remember is that our main character is a young female ghost. She has no memory of why she died but she knows how she died. Also she doesn't remember much about her life before she died. But the story starts of with her trying to save someone who was drowning in the river that she had died in. Eventually she saved him in a way or encouraged him to save himself. The benefit of this is that they boy she saved, who appears to be around her age, can now see her. They can also touch each other even though our ghost girl is dead. But I ended the audio book right when our ghost girl went to school with the boy I think she saved. Also is it bad that I can kind of see where this book is headed? Where we have a ghost fall in love with a mortal and vice versa. Its a predictable storyline but not one that I haven't read much about. I wonder how the author has this one play out that is different than the similar story I read in the past. Got some big shoes to fill.

So until next time...

Manga post #29

 

Hey there Bookies,

I should really stop calling these manga posts if it is only one manga. 

Anyway I just got done reading One Piece volume 17. Still a refresher for me, but it is still nice to be reminded of the things I saw about 100 episodes ago. Also it is just better to read something than see it play through on an anime. Well, Chopper has officially joined the Straw Hat Crew. Even if Luffy only wanted him because he thought he was cool. Nami had to remind everyone or at least inform everyone that Chopper is a doctor. But now they are on their way to Vivi's home to save it from the evil Crocodile. But did I just see a glimpse of a cute pirate named Ace at the end of this volume? Looks like my other favorites will be showing up soon the more I read. Sorry that I don't have much to say. I never do with it comes to these. Just check out the series and you won't be disappointed. 

So until next time...

Almost done listening to Wicked

 

Hey there Bookies,

I have no idea where I left off with my posts on this book. But our main female character is has finally given into her desires for her co-worker? Fellow Order member? I don't really know what he is to be honest. Anyway our lead female character finally has fallen in love and given into her lust. Of course, it took knowing that she could die to finally do it. Also I had to make sure my sound was really low for this part because someone had walked off with my headphones. I don't need looks at work or at home for the spicy scenes in this book. I have enjoyed it so far and am curious if there is a sequel. That is on my to-do list to figure out if this is part of a series. I just need to catch up on my reading first. Anyway I'm still a fan of this author and it was weird to actually not read the book, but when you live a busy life you have to make adjustments. I'm sure I will pick up the book when I get the chance and read it for the parts I missed. But from what I have heard, I really enjoyed the story. I always want to promote any of Armentrout's books because she hasn't disappointed me yet. So go check out this book. I'm not going to tell you the ending just so that you will read this book. Because it's totally worth it. But I'm going to go read or listen to my next book on the list. 

So until next time....
