This book was okay, nothing majorly new to me, found myself glazing over a bit now and then as a result.

pickThe true appeal of the book was learning about the establishments where the stories take place and the vibe of the city. He also does a thorough job of fact-checking and debunking a number of the Quarter‘s myths and legends to include Madame LaLaurie, Marie Laveau, and the Laffite brothers. Most of the ghost stories are pretty mild. I enjoyed this though as it gives great descriptions of the city. I even added a few stops during my time there!
bailedI am not liking the writing style, just not for me.
Bummer as I supported this kickstarter. The book is very pretty, up for sale on my Pango store. #hailthebail a book off my #roll100 TBR too!

pickWayne Thiébaud died in 2021 at the age of 101. This volume is a collection of paintings spanning seven decades, featuring Thiebaud's iconic food still lives, vibrant landscapes, and portraits. Amazing??

pickAudiobook narrated by the author. I was expecting (hoping for) a collection of fascinating moments with guests of his radio show All Things Considered. But instead it was really a memoir. Soft pick. He does have a beautiful voice though 🗣️

pickIn telling the story of Ken Nedimyer, a sea conservation pioneer and marine life protector, Kate Messner and Matthew Forsythe create a stunning tribute to the wonders of nature and the power of human hope. Stunning illustrations!

pickNot only is the local bank robbed, but two of the Hardy boys' pals mysteriously disappear after a masquerade party. Pub. 1930. Hence, the characters‘ names - Frank, Joe and Biff!

Midpoint #August which has been a decent month. Rereading tagged will get me to bingo. But I can't put Princess of Blood down! Already half way through and loving every minute. #BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks
so-so3⭐️ Well this book hit me a little different than most. Because I didn‘t hate it, but I didn‘t love it at all. In fact, I wanted to DNF it multiple times, but there wasn‘t a valid reason for me to do it. Because it was a good story I just wasn‘t connecting to it. Took me two weeks to read 350 pages and a 50%. I really questioned myself. It was good but it has been deleted from my Kindle. #69 for #Roll100 and #DoubleSpin for #BookSpinBingo
