Everything You Want Me To Be
February is always a fast moving month. We had a teaser of spring last week, but winter found its way back. I have not seen any of the Oscar nominated movies this year. Are you watcher of the Oscars?

I hope you enjoy The Guests on South Battery! I love the Stephanie Plumb series, but I stopped at Nineteen. Not because I tired of their antics, but there were just too many books taking over the series' slot. If I ever get a minute, I'd love to catch up with Ranger, Joe (I choose Joe), Grandma, and Stephanie. Have a great week!
While I won't be watching the Oscars I did see Hidden Figures and thought it was fantastic. I doubt it will win though. I'd bet on La La Land for that though it isn't my cup of tea.
I enjoyed the warmer weather but now we're back to colder typical weather for February. Spring is around the corner though :)
I will have to look for Someone Else's Summer. It sounds really good.
Have a great week!
Hope you like The Wicked City as much as I did!
I have not been watching (watched Big Little Lies) and I haven't seen ANY of the Oscar noms either! Eek. Love the sound of The Signal. Wasn't last week (early on) nice? Now back to winter. :)
I gave up on Stephanie Plum at about book 3! But glad to see you're still enjoying her antics. We did watch the Oscars.
I'm kind of over Stephanie - she needs to pick one guy and stick with him. Someone Else's Summer sounds really good.
Loving what you've been reading. We do not have HBO, I did listen to the audio of the book and loved it.
I definitely want to add The Guests on South Battery. I hope you enjoy it.
Thanks for sharing...and here are
MY WEEKLY UPDATES
I haven't read Stephanie Plum for a while, but after reading your description I kind of want to now. I have missed her and Ranger! I was always Team Ranger. Lol.
All your books are new to me. Enjoy them and have a good week.
Last night when I went to hear Eloisa James speak she threw some shade at Evanovich for writing the same book every time. I agree with her which is why I gave up the series BUT if she decides to write a finale I'd be interested to see how things turn out for Stephanie and crew.
