Yeah, we really need to announce these reads a bit sooner so everyone can get the book 😂😂
It looks really good tho, I’m super excited!!


Harper Nicole (harpernicole) I know!! I've been so busy and so unorganized lately which is NOT me, so, hopefully we can get a better hold on it soon. Lol

Harper Nicole (harpernicole) Yeah, I don't have it either!!! There's just one person I'm waiting to finish, and I'm willing them to finish quickly, because I'M IMPATIANT! Lol

Phoebe  (biblioduck_) | 3 comments Would anyone buddy read Night Circus with me? I've never read it before but feel like it's going to be the sort of book I need someone to gush over with me x

Aww, lucky!!! Don't spoil anything once you start. I mean, we all know how it ends, but... Lol


Harper Nicole (harpernicole) You're fine asking, Phoebe! But, I would ask on "The People Are Chatting", because more people will see it there, and probably only Joey and I will see it here! Lol I'm sorry, I can't! I do not have the time right now to start another book. Lol But, sounds fun! Good luck finding someone!

It’s SUPER good so far Harper, although I’ve been considering DNFing cause of the excessive language. I hope it gets a little better after all the crazy stuff 😁


Harper Nicole (harpernicole) Oh, really? Aw, that's sad. I couldn't find anything on content when I was looking at doing it. I do hope it gets better.


Harper Nicole (harpernicole) Is it getting better? Cause I just got the book in, and I'm really excited, but afraid I'm going to love it but have to stop because of the language. We'll see!

I finished it. I haven’t posted a review and I probably won’t for a day or two (lol) but it didn’t get much better. It was ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL, but the language was a lot.
God’s name was taken in vain about 35 times (ouch, that hurts my eyes). S***, f***, and h*** were all used 8 or 9 times. A few uses of b*****, d***, a**. Jesus’/ Christ’s name was also taken in vain once or twice.


Harper Nicole (harpernicole) Oof, yeah, that's not great, but I think I'll still try it. Thanks for that info, though!


Harper Nicole (harpernicole) I'm glad you loved it!

Okay, sounds good! I hope you like it as much as me. It would’ve been a five star read, but I really felt I should take off a star for language :/


Harper Nicole (harpernicole) Yeah, the language is pretty bad, but it's SO GOOD! I'm really loving it. It's hard to read, so I'm going pretty slow. Hard to read because of how heavy and recent it is. My mom was in NYC when it happened, so she said she wouldn't be able to read it. But, yeah, it's so sad!!

Ikr? It’s such a good book, but yes, it’s very hard to read. I can imagine that would be horrible!! It was bad enough for my parents and they were both in NC at the time. 😔


Harper Nicole (harpernicole) Yeah, it's really rough, and people don't really talk about it, because it's not quite history, although it really did change the world, it's just like it happened yesterday, so no one talks about it. Kids don't know about it. It's really sad! But, yeah, super good!

Yes! That’s spot on. Have you finished yet?


Harper Nicole (harpernicole) Nope! I'm not even that close. Lol I've had to put it on hold, so I could finish a couple of other books before they go back to the library, but I'm starting back on it! Hopefully, I make some headway tonight!
