Don’t you love it when you get a new book in and your dog immediately slobbers all over it? The book is still highly recommended to read and it is now Pitty approved! @jeffvandezande.bsky.social #books #booksky

Started The Housemaids Secret, I went back and looked at when book 4 would come out. I realized my eyes lied to me (normal); it comes out in two weeks! Which is great because technically it’s 2.5 in the series. Now the only question is, read after book 2 or after 3? #books #booksky #audiobooksky

I can’t wait to continue the series. I was trying to take it slow with this series because the fourth audiobook doesn’t come out until August, but it was just so addicting. I didn’t want to stop listening. #books #booksky #audiobooksky

I hope this isn’t the end, I’d love to see Joe suffer the consequences of his actions. He felt more delusional this book, his “I’m better than everyone else” attitude was strong. As for his obsession, Wonder, I wanted to like her, she wasn’t bad, just too much of a people pleaser. #booksky #books

More than three books in May! 🥳 Audiobooks are a lifesaver for when you just don’t have the brain function to hold a book or kindle. 48% on my book goal for the year! #books #booksky #audiobooksky #readingchallenge

Tiny amount of growth from Joe in this one, but the epilogue ruins that growth. I did find myself agreeing with him in the book more than I have the past two books. He’ll forever be on my list because of the epilogue though. #books #booksky

My little goose turns the big 6 today! A big happy birthday to my little Lucy🩷 #dogs #dogsofblusky #doglife

I want the book version. I don’t know where they got the plot line for season two but it needs to be redone and follow the book. Really enjoyed the book, was yelling “Joe NOOOO” pretty frequently.😂 #booksky #books

Now, I can’t compare to the show as I haven’t seen it yet but…it’s a good thing this is a series because that ending was horrible. I hope as the series goes on the writing gets better but over all it’s been fun to read. #booksky #books

The more I listen to Hidden Bodies (You book2), I’m wondering where the hell they got the whole plot line for season 2. #books #booksky #tvshow

So I finished the show (I know I know don’t judge me for watching before reading) and it was great. Book 1 was also great, slightly better because it’s a bit darker. I’m on book 2 now. Show and book, very different. #booksky #books

Just got it in the mail! Can’t wait to read it again! @sea-ya-later.bsky.social #booksky #books

My final poem from my poetry workshop. #poems #writing #writers

Working on a poetry workshop prompt. I had to keep all the end rhyming words and rewrite the lines. One ran away when I took my dogs out the other is the rewrite to stick with the prompt. I chose In Winter In Wood, Robert Frost. If you read them, tell me what you think. #poems #writing #writers

I’m in a poetry workshop and had to come up with a poem. This is mine, what do you think? Does it make feel anything, make you think of anyone? #authors #writing #writers #poems

Didn’t read much last month, got a little distracted playing Stardew Valley😅 my dog also decided he was going to get hurt. I do highly recommend the three books I did read though. Currently I’m reading Parallel Circuit and Dexter book 1. #booksky

I’m sad, I’m heartbroken, I haven’t felt this much anxiety running through me since I read Hunted by Darcy Coates, but I want a sequel. It felt a little slow to start but it got really good pretty fast. #audiobooksky #booksky

I thought this was going to be your average ghost/haunted house story…man was I wrong. That twist was amazing! It’s nice getting surprised with books. Highly recommend, it was a really enjoyable read. #booksky @jeffvandezande.bsky.social

This was something. Had me sitting and staring at a blank wall just trying to figure out what the monster was. I really loved it, but I was slightly disappointed with the ending. #DeanKoontz #audiobooksky #booksky

Since I had a migraine the past two days I figured I’d try to write a blurb for my book. Tell me what you think, interesting? If yes, what do you like, if no, what don’t you like. Just don’t be rude please. (This is a first draft and yes I know Joys part is a little messed up). #writingcommunity

March reading wrap up! Still a head of my yearly reading goals! Current reads: Prey ~ physical Phantoms ~ audio The Dance of Rotten Sticks ~ kindle #booksky #audiobooksky

Finished The Stand…absolutely love it when all but a few of the characters I like don’t make it to the end.😑 It was an enjoyable book, lots of great characters, and so much suspense. #audiobooksky #stephenking #booksky

So much family drama…I need book recommendations. Horror, mystery or thriller preferred but any are welcome. In the meantime, here’s a pretty tree from my walk to physical therapy. #booksky #nature

So I finished it…even though I knew some of it was going to happen, still had me in tears. #booksky #sunriseonthereaping #hungergames

Late birthday presents from my sister🩵 Also, 22 hours and 45 minutes left in The Stand. #dogsofblusky #booksky

Current reads: Prey - paperback Sunrise on the Reaping - kindle The Stand - audiobook I have 27 hours left in The Stand. In part 2 of 4 in Prey. Prey kept me up last night, I didn’t want to go to sleep. I’m really enjoying this books so far. #booksky #audiobooksky #books

As always, can’t go wrong with dinosaurs. Still love the first one more, but this one is still good, definitely better than the movie. I’d give it possible a three and a half/four star rating. #booksky #books #MichaelCrichton

Know what’s fun? Finally deciding that you have the mental capacity to write and your dog decides he needs your attention at that very moment. Guess I know who I’m dedicating the book to😅 Anyway, I’ve reached 13,000 words. Progress is being made…slowly🥳 #writingcommunity #writing #amwriting

I can’t believe he’s 7 already, I remember when he was just a tiny baby. A big happy birthday to my Max🥰 #dogsofbluesky #doglife

33% of the way through The Stand, only 32 hours and 10 minutes left to go. I’m finishing up the Second Configuration of The Lost World. Trying to read one Configuration a day. #booksky #audiobooksky #stephenking #MichaelCrichton

My boys birthday is in a week, I’ve found a pet store to see about some presents because the BX’s and commissary’s selection isn’t great. I’ve decided cupcakes instead of a cake because he didn’t finish it last year, even with my girls help. I’m open to other ideas too. #dogsofbluesky #doglife

I didn’t read much last month and I didn’t even win anything for the book bingo I participated in. That’s okay, at least I managed to read. #booksky #books #reading

I hate when I finish this book. 5/5 stars, will read again. Best comfort book ever. I will look forward to reading it again. I still want a book accurate movie, love the movie but the book is just more horrifying. #booksky #jurassicpark #books #dinosaur

It’s late, I’m hurting and can’t sleep. Advil and melatonin are taking forever to kick in, so instead of working on my book, I wrote these little things. I hope you enjoy☺️ #writers #writingcommunity #booksky

Went to pick up my dog and my back/hip popped…I hate going to the doctors but I guess it is what it is. More reading time for me while I figure out why my body hates me. I’m a 28 year old with the bones of a 90 year old. What’s your comfort read when feeling down? #booksky #books #MyBodyHatesMe

Rereading Jurassic Park (for about the fifth time) makes me really desperate for a book accurate movie or tv show. #booksky #jurassicpark #books #dinosaurs

2025 reading goal: 13/40 books read 3 books currently being read The Stand - Stephen King audiobook The Witcher The Last Wish - Andrzej Sapkowski kindle Jurassic Park - Michael Crichton paperback What’s everyone else reading? What’s your goal for the year? #booksky #2025readinggoal

Back with a book! Her Soul To Take…it was fun but I didn’t really like it. I didn’t care for the FMC, it was one bad decision after another with her. Can’t blame her for going after her cat, I’d do the same for my dogs. The MMC wasn’t anything special other than liking cats. #booksky
