Before I Go to Sleep | Steven J. Watson

If I had a dollar 💵 for every time I wished I was reading, I could buy a lot of books. ♥️📚

What if every time you went to sleep you lost your memories. You had to start each day in bed with a husband you didn't know & in a house you don't remember.
😳
Every day Christine wakes up & begins again except her memory is starting to function...

#BooksAcrossOceans #day11 #BlackAndWhitePhoto This is a very dramatic photo I took when we were coming in from our houseboat holiday in May. This is the Hawkesbury River Railway Bridge at Brooklyn. Opened on May 1st 1889 it's still the main railway crossing of the river, though they did have to replace the pylons a while back, it's still a very beautiful bridge to photograph.

Marchpane You got some photography skills! Love this moody pic 👌 7y
Lizpixie @Marchpane Thankyou! I'm thinking of having it blown up on canvas to put on my lounge room wall. 7y

#Mercy #AugustGrrrl #poetAnneSexton
A memoir written by the poet Anne Sexton's daughter. Remember it had a powerful impact on me.
I love Litsy!❤️This prompt immediately reminded me of this book. Now as peruse it, I am wanting to reread and connect with my younger self who enjoyed so many poets of this period.

TrishB Sounds interesting. 7y
Cinfhen So awesome that your memory can recall past books! 7y
kspenmoll @TrishB St the time I read it I loved it. Would definitely reread now after so@much tome has passed. 7y
kspenmoll @Cinfhen 😉 The song/prompt triggered the title right away- not always the case! ThenI had to figure out what bookcase it was in- that took more time!! 7y

So, I haven't read this. I read Go Ask Alice as a teenager KNOWING it was a true story & being shook.
Then, I learned it & the pictured book were written by a therapist named Beatrice Sparks & felt betrayed. She claimed to have FOUND these stories & the lie just felt slimey.

night_shift I don't know why I even have this book still 😒 7y
ReadingRover I thought Go Ask Alice was true also. The betrayal stung 🐝when I was told that it wasn't. 7y
night_shift @ReadingRover yeah, like.. not sure why she felt the need to lie about it? Maybe the sales would've been crap if not for the anonymous bit .. idk, just 😒 7y

#BooksAcrossOceans #BlackAndWhitePhoto

I really love the Penguin Modern Classic look. So elegant.
Of these, l've only read A Rage in Harlem and loved it. Mystery, adventure, admittedly lots of violence but dulled by humour.

I have a feeling that l'll pick up Selvon and Fitzgerald on the first weekend readalong that will come up 😆

batsy Fantastic selection. 7y
JazzFeathers @batsy Still need to read them 😊 7y

Baltimore: Then and Now(r) | Alexander D Mitchell IV
post image

Part of my thrift store finds from last weekend, this book has a historic #blackandwhitephoto on the left hand page, and a 2010 photo of the same place on the right. I lived in Baltimore in the early 80s when a lot of renovation was going on so of course I snapped this one up. #booksacrossoceans @pri_bibliophile @mellisarock
