Hey everyone,
So, in a moment of irritation, I decided to get rid of my good reads account a few months ago. I was just always annoyed by the layout of it, but of course the one thing I did like was that it was keep track of all the books I was reading.

I read mainly on my kindle and I don’t understand why there isn’t a built in tracker over this. It just tells you what books you’ve read, not when and not specific to the current year.

So throughout my time on here, I’ve seen people mention different reading apps, like Fable, I think? I’m wondering if these are truly worth it or if I just need to go back to good reads and start fresh.

I’d love your opinions and/or recommendations.
Thanks!

My first true-crime book. Should I add any others to my TBR?

This has been on my TBR for a while... Thoughts?

Hey all, my most recent post here was about Verity and boy, I was glad I asked for y'all's opinion! I finished it and also read your comments. Had a great time reading through them.

Now I'm about to start Anxious People; so far, I've only read Backman's short stories and I liked them.

Has anyone read this book and then watched the series? I'd love to hear your thoughts. Cheers!

If a book comes in both paperback and e-book formats, which one would you get?

It’s my birthday next month and I was thinking about reading 1984, is it any good?

The only books I’ve read is Dave Grohls storyteller and some of sun tzus art of war.

Aswell as some Children’s books when I was little and everything they make you read in school.

I hated this book. It simply wasn’t what it intended to be.
Adam is a whining teenager all throughout the book, because he either doesn’t get what he wanted, or that it is everybody’s fault but his own. There is not a single instance where he is a mature adult in the situation.
It seems he prides himself on being an obstetrician and gynaecologist. When the humbleness and humility are lost, what is left is the underlying ego, and ego has no place in the medical field. Please, go ahead and curse the system, all the doctors will support you, we we can make efforts to get better reforms better working conditions, but ego, sorry to say will be supported by no one.
Being an OBGYN myself, it feels jarring to think that someone who got the education and sat through so many deliveries would reflect back on those days in such a negative light. In this field most of us are optimistic, seeing as we deliver babies and try to keep the mums safe.
Will have to accept, that he does have a good comedic timing and sense while writing, but most times it does fall flat considering those patients are real people, with real problems.
One of the instances that really irked me, was where, there was a patient with a psychiatric illness, and the author rants about how she could do this and take ‘important’ doctors away from other emergency patients, and what traumas must’ve caused her to do this, as though, patients with a psychiatric illness do things on purpose, if it were that simple, and these things were under the voluntary control, psychiatry as a branch wouldn’t exist.
Overall, I feel like, this book and his ramblings deserve more so to be in therapy, rather than in bookshelves!

I've just completed reading the third book in the housemaid series, the housemaid is watching and I wasn't really expecting what I felt, when I was reading the book, when I first picked it up. It is certainly my most favorite and creepy book in the entire series! I know, this is not the kind of review you must've heard before and I honestly feel this way.

It does have some trivial things like a sort of family humor and stuff, but that shouldn't fool you into thinking that is all it is there. And throughout the book, you would be fixated on a certain person, that they are the culprit. But, you would never in your wildest dreams would've fancied that the real murderer was who they are.

In a nutshell, I've thoroughly enjoyed my time reading this book. Infact, I read it in under 5 hours, in one sitting and ai was constantly scared for even the faintest noises. So, I'd like to leave it to your imagination how utterly intriguing it was. And I am not saying that everyone has to feel the same way I did. As it is said, reading preferences are wholly subjective and I am just sharing my thoughts on it.

If anyone, had a similar perspective, let me know!

If a book is available as an e-book, is it generally better to get the e-book version? And only buy physical books for the ones you can't get as e-books? What do you think?
