#sentenceoftheday Hannah, when her husband asks what she wants for breakfast: "I could murder a bacon sandwich."
Almost done w #TheItGirl -- only 50 more pp to go. What kind of thriller takes you TEN DAYS to read? Maybe this isn't really a thriller. It's definitely a #whodunit. #booksky #amreading

The best parts of #TheItGirl are the creepy parts w/ overly friendly, Oxford porter/stalker John Neville. The rest of the time, it's a very sweet story abt old Oxford buddies who meet in bars, order beaujolais, & move to Edinburgh. I almost forget there's been a murder. #booksky #amreading #RuthWare

OK, here I go, 3rd #sentenceoftheday from #TheItGirl by #RuthWare #booksky Hannah and Hugh are old Oxford buddies going out for a drink in Edinburgh: "He's even wearing his old school tie with the Carne crest." #amreading #mysteries

Another #amreading #mysteries #TheItGirl #booksky Our heroine is Hannah. She sends a text to Hugh, a former Oxford buddy, and her text is this: "Fancy a coffee?" And there it is: our #sentenceoftheday

#sentenceoftheday #RuthWare #TheItGirl #amreading #booksky "There's a kerfuffle behind the bar & in the nick of time the sound of Beck's Odelay got muted & every1 went silent or as close to silent as a room of drunk students could b." (1st time I've read the word KERFUFFLE in a thriller, just sayin)

I'm reading #TheItGirl & all I can think abt is Title IX, w/ issupposed to protect the anonymity of students who report rape on campus. Betsy DeVos, Donald's Secretary of Education during his 1st term, one of the 1st things she did was gut Title IX, making it harder for victims to report. #booksky

Still reading Ruth Ware's #TheItGirl. I love it when characters act just like me. Here's Hannah, the main character, in a grocery: "She picks up a bag of organic rice, looks at the price, then swaps it for normal." #sentenceoftheday #booksky #amreading #mysteries

#sentenceoftheday #amreading #mysteries #RuthWare #TheItGirl #booksky Oxfird girls doing Oxford girls. At a bar. Oxford's Pub Crawl must really be something. --
"Finally, he slid the glasses slowly across the bar, the cloudy white liquid trembling at the meniscus."

#TheItGirl #mysteries #RuthWare #booksky #sentenceoftheday Hannah becomes an Oxford dropout & moves 2 Edinburgh. She works in a bookshop: "It's Hannah who speaks 2 the reps, checks the stocks, decides how many of the new Paula Hawkins they'll want, whether 2 put Haruki Murakami in the window . . . "

#amreading #mysteries #sentenceoftheday #booksky #TheItGirl "Half drunk cups of coffee languished in the window sill, sporting an extravagant coating of mold."

Still reading #TheItGirl. It's something of a closed-room mystery. There are six Oxford undergraduates, 1 of them is the murderer. Is it Will, the handsome object of everyone's desires? Or is it Emily, the acerbic smart girl? Or could it be the narrator herself? Dun dun dun. #booksky #mysteries
