Yeah, so far, The Girl on the Train is kind of boring? IDK, I am only about 15% into the book (Kindle doesn't do page numbers but percentage ) so it is possible that it will get better.
I have about six or seven books I am going to try and read in the next 2 months that have gotten a lot of hype. I am gonna read them to see if they are as good as people have claimed. One of the books got good reviews from people in my book club and a lot of them are tough critics.

It's supposed to be a mystery but also kind of a horror book. There are ghosts or something similar. But, reviews I've read said it really is more of a mystery.

I just finished "The Cuckoo's Calling" and I think I'm going to start "The Color Code" next.

Was 'The Cuckoo's Calling' good? I actually own all three but have yet to read them. Someone told me they were pretty good though.
This is what I am reading this weekend:

I'm actually going to read though the scriptures using my Dad's scriptures. It's always so neat to see all the notes and scriptures he has highlighted and made over the years.

Just started this. The only reason I am reading it is because it's been turned into a movie and I want to compare and contrast the two. Of course, I dislike romance.
Finished Me Before You and am going to be starting:

Dracula By Bram Stoker.
Resilient
1. (of a person or animal) able to withstand or recover quickly from difficult conditions.
2. (of a substance or object) able to recoil or spring back into shape after bending, stretching, or being compressed.
We all possess resilience, we just need to realize it.

Started this but I've been busy so I don't know when I will finish it.
If clarity's in death, then why won't this die?
Years of tearing down our banners, you and I
Living for the thrill of hitting you where it hurts
Give me back my girlhood, it was mine first
The axe forgets, but the tree remembers
