I read seventeen books in March. Yes, it was a surprise to me as well but what else is there to do at the moment? This was one of those months when I read so many great books it was tough to whittle down my list to only five. Although that’s a nice problem to have, right? Links from each title will take you to my review. You can find a list of all the books I’ve read so far in 2021 here.

What Cathy Read Next... 
My copy of The Rose Code arrived a few days ago. I hope to read it soon but it had a few more pages than I bargained for 😄.

I think once you start reading it won’t feel like so many pages

Oh, the amount doesn’t phase me. It’s finding the time to squeeze it in. It’s not a book you start and finish in one afternoon. 😅

Cathy’s right… once you start reading it, it won’t feel so long. I’ve read shorter books that felt MUCH longer than this one. In fact, Rose Code is what, 650+pages. The book I’m reading now is like, 480 pages, and I’m truly struggling with it, where with Quinn’s book it just flew by! That’s why The Rose Code is already one of my favorites of 2021, and the book I’m reading now… if I finish it… will have to work hard to get more than 3 stars from me! In fact, if it doesn’t pick up soon, I might just not finish reading it altogether.

You’ve summed up my thoughts exactly about The Rose Code. I was daunted initially when I saw how many pages. Of course reading it after yesterday’s news about Prince Phillip also gives it an additional, albeit rather sad, relevance. Sorry to hear about your current read. Fingers crossed it does pick up.

I’m probably going to have to DNF it, and I was SO looking forward to it, and the prologue was such a great teaser… but then… it started to fall very, very flat.

I just got to 20% and there’s a little spark there so… I’ll give it at least another 5% for now.

I’m curious now – has the spark ignited into a flame, or gone out?

Still a spark. This is going slower than I had hoped.

No need to snuff it out just yet then…that’s good. Really interested to find out what book it is once you finish it!
