Here is my November list for #readyourkindle

I'd love to read all four of the chosen numbers if I can.
Well... I'd love to read all 20 but that's not likely as I am a #slowreader

Here are my 4 reads for #ReadYourKindle
I forgot that I had already read Fake Shot which was #18 on my list, so I used #19 Twice Bitten instead. Oops 😬 I'm excited to dive in to these

July 2024 Book #7

This is my second book by this author and I can say that I love the way she writes, how places are described and how characters are developed. This story has multiple timelines and it has, mystery, a murder, , family drama, a touch of paranormal or fantasy. It is so atmospheric I didn‘t feel the 585 pages in this slow pace reading because I was immersed in the story. It worked for me 4⭐️

WE DID IT!! 🎉 🎉 🎉 @TheAromaofBooks #bookspinbingo

#19 Sleep Tight 4.0 ⭐ 25 Sept
Finding a serial killer with an unreliable MC involving a house of horrors in a town called Twisted Tree. Checked all the boxes for me. Strong writing that brought further the atmosphere.

#20 Phantasma 4.5 ⭐ 28 Sept
The horror, Ophelia's development, adrenaline rich high stakes competition & we can't forget the 🌶️🌶️🌶️. Probably one of my favorites of the year.

CloakNQuill Only reason it didn‘t get 5✨ was because I DESPISE a hot/cold relationship. It doesn‘t add much to the romance & has me dislike the characters. 2mo
TheAromaofBooks Yay!!!! Fabulous progress!!!! 2mo

Mixed feelings with this one. It is not a great mystery story and it has some religious content which is not my thing. However, I liked the gothic atmosphere how it was described. There were something in the story tone that I liked. Those music scenes were delighted you, could felt that love for the music. But the mystery was in some aspects absurd. Vivienne voluntarily enter into an asylum to know more about ...(cont) ⬇️ 2.5/3⭐️

Gissy (Cont.) ...an unknown woman her father left under her care after he died. Who is this woman and what is the relationship with her? She could the solicitor but no, she just took another identity to enter into the asylum🙄

The book is a beautiful edition with sprayed/designed pages and pretty end pages. The gifs inside the subscription box were practical: two mugs, a blanket and candles.

I have feeling someone has already started a thread about this and I missed it, but with the NY Times recent list of 100 best books of this century, it seems like a good opportunity to try and figure out my own. So if anyone wants to join in, I'd love to see what your favorites are. I chose 25 instead of 100 and just novels since I have a hard time comparing nonfiction or story collections, but feel free to make your own rules!

Billypar Reddit thread with the NYT list (#s 3, 23, and 25 are on it): https://www.reddit.com/r/literature/comments/1e1h8cc/lets_talk_about_nyts_best_b... 4mo
LiteraryinPA Thanks for sharing your personal list! 4mo
Ruthiella I don‘t know if I could whittle it down? 😂 Ishiguro would be on it for sure, but I‘d pick “Never Let Me Go” and for Mitchell, “Cloud Atlas”. 4mo

Suet624 There are so many that I like on this list but numbers 18 through 21 are my absolute favorites, especially Marra‘s book. I guess I would add Fresh Water for Flowers. 🙂 4mo
TheBookHippie Gah … okay I‘ll work on it!! I agree with your 14&25 4mo
TheBookHippie Oh 13 too! 4mo
BkClubCare Wow - I have 3 of these on my Aug bookspin bingo card 4mo
plemmdog I loved #10 and #19! 4mo
Billypar @Ruthiella Never Let Me Go is on my to be read shelf, so hopefully I'll get to that soon. I pulled about 35 initial candidates from my shelves, but whatever number you set, it always leads to tough choices. 4mo
Billypar @Suet624 I need to bump FWFF up on my TBR based on everything I've heard. And I'd like to read more from Marra based on how powerful Constellation was. 4mo
Billypar @TheBookHippie Chabon's Kavalier & Clay is on the NYT list and is also great, but I feel like Yiddish Policeman's Union gets overlooked among his novels. I still need to read the newest releases from Obreht and Ward. 4mo
Billypar @BkClubCare If it works out that you get Drive Your Plow... I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. One of the most unique murder mysteries I've read, and it's got some great dark humor. 4mo
Billypar @plemmdog The voices of the narrators in both of those novels are so distinctive, I can almost conjure them in my head now. I never wanted to put either one down while I was reading. 4mo
TheBookHippie @Billypar I agree!! 4mo
BkClubCare @Billypar - Looking forward to it; starting it next 🤩 4mo
BarbaraBB Great list. Did you choose them from The NY Times list? 4mo
Billypar @BarbaraBB No, I was just finding favorites from my shelf. There are three from NYT's - A Brief History 7 Killings, Bel Canto, and Sing, Unburied, Sing. It's got lots of good ones, but I've only read a little more than 1/3. 4mo
Reggie I love that you have Bunny and Fever Dream in there. 🖤🖤🖤 4mo
Billypar @Reggie If weirdness was like paint, I think my entire list has a thin coat, but those are two where it collected and pooled 😆🖤 4mo
vivastory Fantastic list! 👏 🤘 3mo
Christine This is a really great list!! 3mo
sarahbarnes So many great ones on here - and a few that are high up on my TBR. 3mo
Billypar @sarahbarnes I feel like nothing on my TBR gets read unless I see the book recommended multiple times, so I like how these lists help with prioritizing. 3mo
merelybookish Fabulous picks! I think Bunny would make mine as well. I think often my 'best' books become the ones I don't forgot. And I have not forgotten Bunny! 3mo
Billypar @merelybookish Yeah, that's a good standard to use. I'm pretty sure Bunny won't ever stop hopping around my brain! 3mo
