I think this was the most heartbreaking book of the series so far. It still had it’s funny parts, but it was actually quite sad. It really broke my heart when Harriet discovered that a lot of her ‘friends’ didn’t really care about her.

All of the main characters are lovable and being this far into the series, Harriet felt like a good friend to me. Her story was always close to my heart.

I did prefer the setting of this book since it is in a school and at home rather than Harriet jetting off somewhere as it made it easier to read and relate to.

This was definitely one of the most relatable books altogether, especially with the painfully truthful part about losing friends.

Harriet really started to mature in this one which really helped me love her character even more.

I don’t know why I never read past this point. A few months ago I bought the last two books so I can’t wait to get back to this series!

Kassandra (2 more)

Ancient Greece

100s hours of gameplay

What a game so far as I've only played about 6 hours of gameplay so far and Impressed by the game in my opinion so even better than red dead redemption 2 one of the best open world's I've seen ancient Greece looks amazing it looks so real. Currently playing the game as Kassandra one of my favourite female protagonists in any game I've played u also get the option to play as akexos but I will stick with Kassandra to the end of the game. I also like it when the game gives u the choice to change the outcome of a mission it can be tough but the right decision isn't allways the right one later in the game. also u can choose who to get romantic with either male or female characters u meet along the way. Currently started the sea faring missions with my crew where we will go next that's the exciting part of the game and I'm in for adventure.

Short story that's short on believably

Ok when I go into a Jack Reacher book, or in this case short story (about 2hrs in audiobook form,) I know I’m going to have to suspend some belief but this one went just a bit too far for me.

Somehow in the course of one day 16 year old Reacher manages to tick off a big player mob boss type, decide to take him on, cross paths with the Son of Sam, and hitch up with a girl. Oh and all this just happens to be the day when the huge 1977 New York blackout occurred (at a very convenient time for Reacher.)

He’s 16 but seems to have the exact same street / military smarts the adult Reacher has, it just doesn't work for me. Some far fetched deductions, the type that are a stretch to believe in the adult Reacher, here just come across as almost comical.

As something to listen to while doing housework it was OK but really wouldn’t of wanted to dedicate more attention to it.
