Me and Earl and the Dying Girl | Jesse Andrews

pick

Low pick; the narrator Greg was almost insufferable but I was definitely Team Earl! Read for the Banned Book category of #AsheCoNCReadingChallenge #Aug2023 Book77

LeafingThroughLife Greg was definitely so insufferable. I only managed to give this a “so-so” because of him. 🤦‍♀️ 2w

BkClubCare @LeafingThroughLife - could/should be a book to be discussed, perhaps so that Greg‘s behavior could be explored through his grief and approach to human relationships. Even just why the adults loved the video and the students didn‘t would be an amazing conversation? Anyway, I thought Earl was terrific and deserved better (so did Rachel) 2w

Me and Earl and the Dying Girl | Jesse Andrews

Reading this for a banned book category and it is not going to be fun read from the 20 pages I‘ve read. But it‘ll count and I will power through AND defend anyone‘s rights to find it in their library. #BannedBook #AsheCoNCReadingChallenge

Summer Sisters: A Novel | Judy Blume

I need a book with a season in the title to satisfy one of the last 2 (out of 50!) categories of the #AsheCoNCReadingChallenge. I grabbed the Blume from the library‘s used books store and checked out the Pym from the shelves so it is due to be returned.

I should read both, yes? I feel like I have too many books going at once! Good problems to have, I guess.

Suet624 Yes, you should read both. 😊 1mo

I enjoyed this, she is extremely driven and her journey has been full of adventure. I love the Pitch Perfect movies.

Rebel Rising: A Memoir | Rebel Wilson

Going on a road trip and need an audio! Since I have a “celebrity memoir” category to fill for #AsheCoNCReadingChallenge, will listen to this one. #LibbyAudio oh! It also fits the Alliteration category for #WiaN2025! And 8% in, she mentions apple pie. #PieinLiterature #iLovePie

BkClubCare Also, quite sad that _ALL_ the LGTBQA+ audiobook titles I searched for in my library‘s catalog were NOT FOUND. A LOT. (Or required being put on hold, but still not many, like ONE (Elton John.) (edited) 3mo

The Art of Power | Nancy Pelosi

pick

Audiobooked and skipped a few chapters; needed a “female leader” for the #AsheCoNCReadingChallenge. #June2025 Book52

ChaoticMissAdventures I hate when people say this but I found her lack of humility throughout this book a bit jarring. I felt throughout she was saying never in her career has she made any mistakes. It is a biography and she can portray herself however she wants but I didn't think it was done with much self reflection. 3mo

BkClubCare @ChaoticMissAdventures - I actually was cognizant of your thoughts on this as I listened. I could agree and yet I also didn‘t get an impression that she was over boastful. And she is right about the current regime wanting to wreck tradition. 3mo

BkClubCare @ChaoticMissAdventures - reading your comment again: “I hate when people say this” What do people say? Do you mean being critical of women being TOO humble or NOT ENOUGH but men don‘t get the same criticism? 3mo

See All 6 Comments

ChaoticMissAdventures @BkClubCare yes, totally, I hate to hear or say that women should be humble, men never get that criticism. I think in general women need to be more loud and proud about their work, but I also think we should own our mistakes. I am glad to hear you don't really agree. I might need to read some of it again. 3mo

BkClubCare @ChaoticMissAdventures - well, just know… I am not a close follower of her at all. I am newer or lapsed follower of congresspeople in specific. So I really came to this wondering why, for example, my father hates-her-with-a-passion. So I was inclined to like her version of things , ifyouknowwhatImean 😏 3mo

ChaoticMissAdventures @BkClubCare ha! Yes the more certain people hate some politicians the more I like them. My big complaint with her is she needs to pass the torch fully. But that is a bigger general political issue. 3mo
