"Legacy, what is a legacy? It's planting seeds in a garden you never get to see" - Hamilton For Mary Toliver, the Toliver legacy, has shaped not only her family and herself, but everyone around her as she fights to maintain and grow Somerset Plantation at the cost of all else. Or at least that's the facts on paper. The real story behind the facts, reveals far more as each character gets the chance to share their part of the tale. Highly enjoyed this book as I began and finished it in one day. 10/10 would recommend. #bookbingo21 #150books #bookchallenge21 #booksof21 https://www.instagram.com/p/CSLaI3gjLTXkQplXJSJTFggxmWaxya7NgZ-hnI0/?utm_medium=tumblr
Traditional stories are fun but I love getting to read the altered versions of stories. This version of Beauty and the Beast blends the movie version and a what if look at the story that intrigued me far more than I would have imagined. #bookbingo21 #150books #bookchallenge21 #booksof21 https://www.instagram.com/p/CRUP3X2hadDEu1tEJjkMerbCbMT0OP6YBNAubA0/?utm_medium=tumblr
How does one stand up to the unimaginable horror that was Nazi reigme and Auschwitz and survive? How can one not just survive but come out with the will to live beyond that horror? Books. While books might not feed the body nor sustain the physical necessities of life, books give life to the soul. One of the best books I've read about Auschwitz due to the multiple perspectives and how well the story was told. #bookbingo21 #150books #bookchallenge21 #booksof21 https://www.instagram.com/p/CQLyYouBu2Bv8GAG3E-PuyShCAo5aD0JfhZSFI0/?utm_medium=tumblr
Ruth Ware is one of my favorite mystery authors of all time! Her characters are well developed, her plots are intriguing, and the twists are always a surprise. I have yet to guess the ending of any of her books :) One by One is one of her best books as she introduces the reader to Snoop, an app that allows people to listen to the music of their neighbors, the local mailman, and even celebrities in real time while allowing the streamer to remain anonymous. Snoop might be an intriguing app, but the people who run the company behind the app are even more secretive as their working skiing vacation in France turns deadly after one of their members goes missing right before a massive avalanche cuts off the group from the outside world. Will the group survive the stay? Who lured the missing member away from the group? #bookbingo21 #150books #bookchallenge21 #booksof21 https://www.instagram.com/p/CQE4YigBYRKCzjhxQLjOFqArsSgxV17mMQZ1tM0/?utm_medium=tumblr
What makes life worth living and what part does regret play in your life? Two questions that most people struggle with throughout their entire lifetime. Matt Haig does a phenomenal job of demonstraging the answers to both questions through 35 year old Nora's search for who she is and who she could be. Highly recommend this book! #bookbingo21 #150books #bookchallenge21 #booksof21 https://www.instagram.com/p/CPteXX0hq2llvCoWhFvFjKa4ROYP3_S6SY0e400/?utm_medium=tumblr
I've always heard about this series but never read it until now. All Tally wants is to be a pretty and move on from being an ugly. It's not a judgment, rather just a fact of life that at 16, every person has the surgery that will turn them into a pretty person. This surgery readjusts whatever is not acceptable by their society through implants, bone shaving, and fat reduction. However, not everyone agrees with the surgery and some runaway to visit the "Smokies", a mysterious place where people are able to be and look the way they want to. Tally soon is swept up into the world and has to decide whether or not to betray them to become pretty or stay and remain "ugly" for the rest of her life. I definitely liked this book. #bookbingo21 #150books #bookchallenge21 #booksof21 https://www.instagram.com/p/CPnjv79hVKOEMC5FGa181E3sgCIzDVt2xR-nSw0/?utm_medium=tumblr
