Okay, #PersephoneClub … I‘ve adjusted our order a bit so here are my two (randomly grabbed from my shelves) suggestions for August. Vote away!

@quietjenn will now choose our October suggestions and @rubyslippersreads will choose for December. You two can post as soon as you‘re ready!

Tamra Hooked me with “enigmatic idol is also a treacherous opponent.” 👀 4w
CarolynM I‘m going with 4w

Cathythoughts @andrew61 Just had a mince pie with cream… one of my favourite things about Christmas 👍🏻 4w
LeahBergen @Cathythoughts We usually don‘t vote on our own choices because we save your vote to be a tiebreaker in the event of a tie. Aren‘t we scientific? 😆 4w
Cathythoughts @LeahBergen Well that‘s good to know. Very scientific 😂 4w

My fave book fair was back this year! Generally pleased with my #bookhaul. 😊 (Pay no attention to the bookshelves in the background full of unread books. 😬😆)

BookDadGirlDad I wonder if buying more books than you can read is in the " Expensive Habits" book. ? 3y
EvieBee Wow! What a haul! So@many greats. 3y
MaureenMc @BookDadGirlDad 😆 I‘ll report back after I‘ve read it! 3y
Ruthiella Wow! A Persephone!!! I never see those in the wild! 😃 3y
MaureenMc @Ruthiella I know! I actually saw several at this book fair. Highly unusual! 3y

🥳 When you take a chance and purchase the more expensive used book listing because the seller described the dust jacket in detail in the hopes the bookmark would be present. Best extra $3 I spent lately!

Last minute library pick, on a promotional end of aisle. I adored some of her children's books...

Kind of bittersweet- how the children of a loving family in England are changed by WWII.
