The Long, Hot Summer: A Novel | 
Went outside to check on the birds. Luckily, they are smart enough to stay in the mister shaded area. It‘s hot… honestly it normally gets to the 120s by now, but the humidity without rain is intense. All my birds are accounted for from a windstorm causing a lot of people property damage. 🥵
Most logical place to go on a hot day....Barnes & Noble of course!
pickReally loved it! What a great story where you hear from every member of the family in turn. Everyone is broken, hurt, lost in some way and finding a new outlook on life and seeking redemption. Takes place over one long, hot summer in Ireland. Highly recommend.
I took some time yesterday to clean out the Kobo of books read and expired (deleted those) and reviewed all the books to be read that are sitting on it (haven't opened in a few months 😧). Then settled into reading The Long Hot Summer. Good so far! And I realized again how wonderful the built in reading light is!
Oh and this one made me laugh out loud (Alma is a bit prickly)
Scarlett O'Hara and Hilary Clinton are Alma MacEntee's heroines. ? Thought it funny and so "today".
Saw that someone nabbed this from the library. Remembered it's sitting on my Kobo. 😳 I haven't been using my (normally beloved) Kobo often but I will now to make sure I read The Long Hot Summer!
Given the weather, title wins the #bookoftheday award 😆☀️
