Simon the Fiddler: A Novel | Paulette Jiles

so-so

Jiles is a great writer, but there isn't enough of a story here and I struggled to finish. Simon's a fiddler who wants a girl and a piece of land. He gets in trouble with the authorities. He's blah and the girl is blah. “News of the World“ was far better. #arc #Netgalley #western

Even the Saints Audition: Poems | Rachel �Raych� Jackson

so-so

I‘ve come to love most poetry released by Button Poetry, but this on was just okay. I particularly liked the poems on Job (from the Bible), but felt others were too similar to the Instagram poets I tend to stay away from (only longer).

We Used to Be Friends | Amy Spalding

I loved Amy Spalding's "The Summer of Jordi Perez" so I was super excited to get my hands on an #arc of her latest! Love these great characters and the cool dual timeline structure in this one

I love crafting. Recently I've used embroidery to visibly mend torn clothing. This book as over 500 motifs like the few shown here. I can see #audiomending in my future.

Deifio Can you show some of your work? Because I have no idea how you'd mend something by embroidering it. 🤔 22h

julesG @Deifio I'll try to remember to share some pictures. Right now I can't remember what I mended last and where I put it. But it was something of my son's. 22h

Cold Heart Creek: A nail-biting and gripping mystery suspense thriller | Lisa Regan

I spent my Tuesday flying through the seventh Josie Quinn installment and it was without doubt another winner! It's definitely one of my favorite detective series and one I always seem to read in one sitting as they are impossible to put down. 😍

The Duke's Embrace | Erica Ridley

Reading the tagged #ARC.

My mind wandered to the "the point is" scene in Good Omens. Now I want to reread GO, listen to the audiobook and watch the series. ???

Oh my gosh, this book was the best and I‘m so glad I was able to read an advance reader copy! It was exactly to book I needed to read! Sweet, thoughtful and emotionally satisfying. AND a heroine who designs planners and calendars and all the things I love! 😍I can‘t say enough good things about this book! 5 ⭐️s! #arc #kensingtonbooks #netgalley #kateclayborn #newtomeauthor
