Not as much reading time last week but still finished 4 books. Loved No Two Persons 4 1/2🌟 Two more #SeriesLove23 read and my last #LMPBC The Violets of March which was not bad but forgettable. Just started Saint X and Year of Wonders. I was unsuccessful in completing a Le Guin for #AuthorAMonth, both tries were DNF.

Cinfhen Love these graphics 💙💜💙💜💙 10mo

@Cinfhen here's my #BookReport and #WeeklyForecast for this week. I'm enjoying #MiddleGradeMarchThroughTime with@megnews all 4🌟 reads
The #MGbuddyRead pick We Dream of Space gave me all the 80s feels and brought back so many memories.
I read another one off my #NewYearWhoDis list- Prairie Lotus A Little House on the Prairie retailing. 1880: Hanna is a 14 year-old biracial girl in Dakota territory, that faces many hardships and prejudice.

Daisey This is a really fun format for your book report!! 2y
sblbooks @Daisey Thanks! 2y
Cinfhen I totally agree @Daisey FABULOUS graphics 🥳🥳🥳and what a wonderful book report 2y

I doubt I‘ll finish anymore books today, so I‘m willing to call this week complete. I finished more than I thought I would and really enjoyed everything I read. Hamnet was really some gorgeous writing but in terms of plot, I don‘t think it‘s strong enough to make my best of the year list 🤷🏼‍♀️The Sedaris was hilarious, Whereabouts was good but again probably not the best of the year and the Silva is like a visit with an old friend~ comforting 💕

Suet624 I feel the same way about Whereabouts. 3y
Cinfhen I enjoyed Whereabouts but it was missing something @Suet624 🤷🏼‍♀️ 3y
Centique I‘m with you on Hamnet 😘 3y
Cinfhen I really enjoyed Hamnet @Centique but I think I‘ve read better stories although the writing was exquisite ❣️🙌🏻 3y

Bailed on The Group, but looking forward to hearing everyone‘s thoughts.
‘Enjoyed‘ out, not sure you enjoy it though- dark, intense and disturbing.
Puppet Show - new series - 👍🏻
So You Want to talk- informative and helpful.
Prodigal Son- good day‘s read, all action thriller.

Cinfhen Nice week, Trish 💜 3y
Cathythoughts Nice Trish 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 3y

#bookreport & #weeklyforecast

Completed -
The Other Mother was my 3rd by Matthew Dicks (or sometimes Green), and I really enjoyed it. He has a special talent for writing young protagonists.
Also read the book that has travelled the world via many Littens, and loved it too.

In Progress- An audio #ARC which I am LOVING so far, and I just started Lions Den for #popsugarsummer and it seems like trashy fun.

Next Up- another #ARC that comes out 9/8

Cinfhen You‘re quite the #NetGalleyGal 🎉🙌🏻❣️😘 4y
KarenUK I know! @cinfhen I always thought I wouldn‘t like the time pressure as I‘m quite a slow reader, but I‘m trying to be careful to be a “discerning requester” so I don‘t get overwhelmed! 💕😂 4y
Cinfhen That‘s the KEY 😘 4y

A middling #bookreport The Martha Grimes was disappointing (unfortunate bc I love her characters). Made Things was wonderful but just a short novella. The Edwardians was fascinating but I‘ve reached saturation in reading about this period now - I‘ll take a break and jump my classics reading into the 40s and 50s.

Also old stone stairs that take you inside a cliff - perfect for a gothic novel. 🏰

Hope your reading weeks were stellar!

rockpools What‘s inside the cliff? Caves? Tunnels? A wine cellar? We‘ve got a ‘smuggler‘s tunnel‘ here that runs through a cliff to the beach on the other side (it‘s the only dry access to the beach) 4y
AmyG I loved those Richard Jury books. I read them years and years ago. 4y
LeahBergen I have The Edwardians waiting on my shelf. 👍🏻 4y

Centique @rockpools the stairs just take you in the cliff and then out to the cliff top. But further on this whole promontory is filled with tunnels and secret rooms that were used by the army for protecting the harbour from invasion. You can go in them sometimes but they‘re mostly locked up at the moment. 4y
Centique @AmyG I adored the first five - I‘m probably “too difficult to please” with mystery plots at the moment! 😩 4y
Centique @LeahBergen I think you‘ll love it. Knowing a little about Vita makes it so fascinating. 🥰 4y

My #BookReport for last week is a day late, do I get a B for this? I finished Five Days At Memorial, am at 75% for Leviathan Wakes & at 50% for 102 Minutes. Last week was a tough one, I had constant headaches for a few days then personal problems got in the way so I did the best I could. This week will hopefully be better!🤞

Lizpixie @Cinfhen thank you gorgeous🥰 I love you too😘♥️ I liked the book but it mad me both mad & anxious. Not a good feeling😳 4y
Cinfhen It was such a morally compelling story / I wish my bookclub read it!! There is so much to ponder and discuss 4y

#BookReport Week 5

I managed to read 3 #ARCs although none were stellar
Finished my 🎧of Becoming ~ very informative & full of great tidbits.
Read the new Colson Whitehead - super bleak but so well written

Had to put aside my two NF books / I just wasn‘t in the mood 😬
Started a new 🎧and a new print 📖both are excellent so far

It was a good week for #NetGalley progress 😊

Bookzombie That‘s a lot of reading! Yay! 4y
LeahBergen I‘ve missed so many posts lately (because of the monster puppy 😆). Fill me in, please! What‘s #BookReport? 4y
llwheeler Hibernation is a great description for books you're not totally bailing on, but not actively reading either. May have to steal it 🙂 4y

Daisey Love the layout this week! 4y
Sace I'm liking "hibernation" too. 4y
Kalalalatja I‘m feeling more and more compelled to read the new Whitehead, it is getting great reviews! 4y
Cinfhen I want to say that @JulesG came up with the term #hibernation @llwheeler @sace 🐻 it really is the perfect description for certain books 4y
Cinfhen Thanks @Daisey @Bookzombie I was surprised how much I completed when I went to compose my #BookReport 🤓the Whitehead is a really strong HF without being overly written. It‘s concise but compelling @Kalalalatja packs a strong punch 🥊 4y
Cinfhen A #BookReport is basically a short summary of what you read the past week and where you stand on continuing reads ( we post these on Saturday) on Sunday we post a #WeeklyForecast ~ what we hope to read during the week and what we‘re in the middle of reading @LeahBergen it‘s just a nice way to stay in touch with our friends and see what everyone is most excited for 😊 4y
julesG @llwheeler @Sace Hibernation just describes it perfectly. 😀 4y
llwheeler @julesG it does! Cheers for finding the perfect description 4y
BarbaraBB @LeahBergen How IS the monster puppy doing? I hope to see your #bookreport and #weeklyforecast soon too! 4y
BarbaraBB I haven‘t read the Whitehead and really don‘t want to somehow but I‘m afraid it‘ll be shortlisted for the #ToB2020 and that will leave me with no choice 😂 4y
Cinfhen If it gets shortlisted I‘ll send you my copy @BarbaraBB ( I didn‘t love it) 4y
BarbaraBB 💜 4y
LeahBergen @Cinfhen Oh, lovely! Thanks, darling! 😘 4y
LeahBergen @BarbaraBB He‘s exhausting at the moment. I think natural selection has made puppies super cute so we don‘t murder them before they reach adulthood. 😂😂 4y
BarbaraBB @LeahBergen That might be true! Who could murder while looking into those puppy eyes?! 😂 I‘m happy this monster has come into your life! 4y
Reviewsbylola Hill Women sounds so good!! No? 4y
Cinfhen I wasn‘t sure what the point of Hill Women was @Reviewsbylola It was a bland story. Writing was fine and another look at Appalachia but there were no standout moments in the story 😬Three stars 4y
jillrhudy @Cinfhen I absolutely agree and also rated 3 stars. I read it as soon as NetGalley posted it because Appalachia is kind of my “thing.“ 4y
Cinfhen Thanks for agreeing @jillrhudy I have a feeling Hill Women is going to get a lot of love/ attention so im happy I read it before the hype. It was definitely lacking something!!! 4y

#BookReport #Week3
Glad I waited until end of the day because I finished a 5th book!!! Plainsong was a #OneSittingRead and 5 HEARTFELT stars
Speak No Evil - contemporary fiction/ very good I already posted reviews on other 3 books, LOVED both #NF (both audio)
Three bails this week, annoyed because I wasted 2/5 loans from Hoopla. Gods is probably great but not on audio. The Holdout is an #ARC #NetGalley 👎🏼 Just started Like Dreamers, #NF 👍🏻
