YOU Recommended Them, So I Bought Them!😀 Thank You For the Swell Book Recs!
I don't know when I'm going to start reading on them, so don't hold that to me. But after reading the summary of these books, they seem like they're phenomenal, and I want to dive into them as soon as possible. And if I remember, as I'm reading the book or when I recommend it, I'll be sure to shout your name out as to who recommended the book to me in Bumbun. So I just want to say thank you for recommending these books
Thank you. I can't tell you how many times I've recommended that book over the years, and I think you are the first person I've ever heard who really seriously wanted to read it to the extent of going out and buying it. And so, yeah, I hope you find something in it, even if there's just a little bit in there that's as poignant for you as the book was for me. That's one

And it's also, I would say, a very easy read. But because for me it's heavy and it's interesting, I'm taking my time with it. So I'm glad that I recommended something that you found to be interesting. And, yeah, when you do begin to read it, definitely hit me up and let me know what you think. Have a good one. That's my copy. Thank. Beds next to my bed on my nightstand

So please let me know when you read them. And I'm going to look at the books that you put on here, too, because the world has so many things, so much knowledge that we don't know about. So thank you so much for posting

Hi, Christine. Yeah, I truly appreciate you recommending and talking about that book. I try to, because I know before when I would do book reviews and such, and some books I wasn't able to get at the time in the past when I would do something to this. And so I'm glad I'm at a station in my life where I can purchase the book that's recommended to me

Hi, Anne. I'll definitely let you know when I begin to start the book and I'm just like you. I do have bedside books and depending on what they are, I fall asleep as I'm reading them. I know that I was reading certain historical books and, yeah, they were really good. Bun bun. Reading them at night right before bed just really makes me fall asleep. Maybe that's a good thing because I need to get to bed on time usually

And that's not healthy either. So I believe that this world, society, our loved ones, a lot of them have a lot of power over people. But when folks stand up and start to say no, I'm drawing the line right here for me, I'm drawing a line right here, and that's okay. So, yeah, it definitely because what you were talking about reminded me of that show about setting boundaries. So, yeah, that's really awesome
And we only have so much time in the day of how much we consume and don't consume and so on. Anyway, I'm sort of rambling here, but I just wanted to let you know for not only my benefit, but anyone else's as well as yours. I mean, you're investing your time and thought and energy into giving replies and it only would benefit us all if we hear those specific replies to us. Anyway, please don't feel any particular way about this

That's why sometimes when I recommend books, I do try to mention, or maybe I should mention more that some of these books are available on the Libby app, the free Library app, or Freeding. Or you can opt to get them from thrift books where you get them a little bit cheaper. So yeah. Thank you so, so much for the information about the reply button. And you take care
They had free shipping and they'd come from the UK and the prices were cheaper than Amazon but then Amazon bought them out and now although it's free shipping the prices are comparable and it takes forever to get the book. So it's like why would I use Book Depository when I can use Amazon and get it sooner and guaranteed because sometimes the shipments were starting to get lost anyway, it's a shame that they bought it because for them Book Depository was really interested

And also another point I wanted to make about the books, I'm thinking of leaning more towards audio just to save my eyeballs. I know I'm saying that, but I enjoy physical copies of books. But I also want to give audiobooks a try even more because so far I've listened to only, I would say, three or four books now that are audiobooks. And the listening experience was really good. But I definitely know how you feel about staring at the screen all day long
So of course, Halloween oriented and it was supposed to be this sort of scary thing and there wasn't anything really horrendous about it, but it was their emotional state and the way that they were communicating, and you could feel it, and it just was, like, very visceral. I almost was like, please get me out of here. I don't want to experience this anymore. And yet I wanted to find out what happened

Hey, Christine. So it turns out that there is a Netflix for Books, and I don't know how I didn't think of this. Scribd. Scribd is literally dubbed the Netflix of Books. So I've included the link to the review of Scribd, like what the subscription Erica would be, and all of the other stuff I should have just put into Scribd website

I'm going to have to check it out again. And I know exactly what you're talking about. With respect to subscribe to Amazon Prime oh. But you also must subscribe to this additional channel. Really? It's really annoying. Really annoying. And all I will say is I don't want to rush you and push you happy reading whatever you're reading between now and whatever next book you choose till you get to whichever books are looking forward to
