5 Word Mini-Reviews: The Girl on the Train, In a Handful of Dust, Alice and the Fly, Hollow City
I have several books that I have not done full reviews for and I thought I would try to keep them short and sweet. I am going to try to keep them at five words (or less). I can be wordy sometimes so hopefully I am up to the challenge!
The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins
In a Handful of Dust (Not a Drop to Drink #2) by Mindy McGinnis
Alice and the Fly by James Rice
Hollow City (Miss Peregrine's Peculiar Children #2) by Ransom Riggs

Love these!!! Totally agree about Girl on the Train. I really want to read Alice and the Fly.
ReplyDeleteThanks Grace! Alice and the Fly was amazing! I hope you get to it soon. :)
DeleteGreat mini reviews! You've summed it up neatly. Now I want to read Alice and the Fly! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
DeleteHere is my five-word headline for THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN: Delusional, raging alcoholic blacks out.
ReplyDeleteTecheditor, bahahaha that is awesome! Your five word headline definitely sums it up very nicely. Love it.
DeleteLove this! I tend to get really wordy even in my mini reviews but this is such a clever idea. I could never stick to it, but I love it. =)
ReplyDeleteGreat mini reviews, now I have to go look at this Alice and the Fly book.
Thanks Shay! Yes, please read it! :)
DeleteAlice and the Fly? I'll have to look for it now. Your recommendations are always amazing <3
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Ramona!
DeleteWhat a fun idea! Great reviews.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kwizgiver!
DeleteI LOOOOVE this idea! That is a challenge, I don't know if I could do it! I totally,100% agree about In a Handful of Dust. I REALLY wish there'd be a third book, I feel like it needs one. I am not done with that world yet!
ReplyDeleteShannon @ It Starts At Midnight
Shannon, I am not done either! I need another book about those characters!
DeleteYAAAAY I AM SO GLAD YOU LIKED ALICE!!! That book, tho, omg. I am still flawed by how powerfully it was written.
ReplyDeleteI really want to read In A Handful of Dust too, but I'm kind of worried because the reviews haven't been totally favourable. :/
Thanks Cait! I bought the book 100% based on your review and I am SO glad I did! In a Handful of Dust was not as good as the first one (of course), but it was still great. I just love Lynn and Lucy so much!
DeleteOhh I love these type of reviews. I might have to emulate. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Joy. Emulate away. :)
DeleteI've got the audiobook of The Girl on the Train (my first audiobook in years!) it seems good, great mini reviews!
ReplyDeleteHeather @ Random Redheaded Ramblings
Thanks Heather! I hope you love it! :)
DeleteLove all your mini reviews (lol my comment in 5 words!).
ReplyDeleteThanks Trish. It was tough to limit them that way, believe me. Ha
DeleteWhat a great way to do mini-reviews! I'll bet this was harder than a normal review sometimes!
ReplyDeleteNicole @ Feed Your Fiction Addiction
Thanks Nicole! It was SO much harder!! But it was a lot of fun too. :)
DeleteFantastic idea! I really tend to ramble. I may have to borrow your technique! I haven't read any of these, but you piqued my curiosity.
ReplyDeleteThanks Wendy! It's tough to limit them to five words, but it was very succinct. :)
