NUMBER THREE
NOW & NEXT
TELL ME TUESDAY is a feature cohosted by the clever Brittersweet at PLEASE FEED the BOOKWORM, and myself. We want you to tell us WHAT you are reading and WHY, and what you are considering from your TBR pile for your next read and why. We are always curious about why people are reading what they are reading. So tell us!!
NOW
Again I am off my reading "rules" and only reading one book. There is an eARC that I REALLY want to read, Burning Kingdoms, so I grabbed some "approved for all" books to pump up my stats to lessen the chance of getting DECLINED.
I know this woman must work for a publishing house.
So right now I am reading PRESS PLAY by Eric Devine.
And it is DEVINE.
This is only the second Contemporary YA I have read (not my usual thing), but the story is very dramatic and the MC reminds me of one of my nephews and a couple of my son's old high school buddies, rolled into one. This story will have you on the edge of your seat one minute and laughing the next. I am about 60% finished, and unless the story tanks in the back half for some reason, it is definitely worth four stars.
FOUR STARS
*UPDATE: This book ended up with FIVE STARS!! Read my mini Goodreads review HERE.
Once I am done with PRESS PLAY, which should be today, it is on to the next "approved for all" eARC...
Yep, another Contemp, but Middle Grade this time. I hope it is a quick read so I can get back to reading The Queen of the Tearling, as soon as possible.
YES YES YES YES YES...
I am eating crow on this book.
Just before the 20% mark the story went fom okay to brilliant.
