Ermmm, was a very good book and story line. 1 negative would be, far to many characters in there, quite confusing to keep up with them all. I like to visual while reading and was sometimes hard when to many name. 📖 🤓 😃

I‘m giving this a marginal pick. About two piano players, a middle aged child prodigy and a young celebrity. I liked the exploration of their struggles and their deep love and connection for music. There were just some odd choices in plot and one of the main characters Prudence is 48, but reads in her 60‘s and the timelines don‘t always make sense. If you love music, I recommend though. 3.5⭐️

Catching up with reviews of books I‘ve read whilst we‘re on our hols.

Only 3 books though, despite the rain, as hubby bought me some crossword books for my birthday so they‘ve been distracting me!

I spotted this in a charity shop just after I‘d read Margo‘s Got Money Troubles and only just got round to reading it. I liked it a little more than Margo, I think - it felt a little more expansive and I liked the girls more than those in Margo.

Suet624 This might be the only one of hers I haven‘t read. I‘m glad to see you liked it. 2w

BarbaraBB I‘ve read another one by her and that one as well as Margo are books I forgot all about soon after finishing them, even though I liked both. 2w

New school year means new books for my class library…except for Finding Grace and Save Me (don‘t judge me; I am completely obsessed with Maxton Hall) #sorrynotsorry

⭐️⭐️⭐️💫/5
This one has been on my bookshelf for a while now so I decided to give it a go…BUT…this started out strong, fizzled a little and the ending was just ok. I had high hopes for this book because the story itself seems so interesting and fun but it just felt draggy…idk maybe it was just me🤷🏼‍♀️

He has slept through most of his thirties, and now here is this person who seems to have come from another realm specifically to energize him, to destroy any feelings of spiritual, psychic, or sexual lethargy. He feels reborn in this dangerously new passion-first and passion-only life.

Would anyone be interested in joining me for a #LMPBC of our own? It‘s not done through Litsy anymore, but I‘d love to do it on our own if a couple of people are interested. I took this picture recently to celebrate the fact that I finally had all of Abbi Waxman‘s books, and might use The Garden of Small Beginnings as my starting book if we decide to make this happen. Of course, I have a lot of others to choose from though. @LitsyEvents

BookishBrunette1 @kspenmoll I've read and loved The Bookish Life of Nina Hill and Adult Assembly Required. According to ChatGPT this is the order her books are “supposed“ to be read in but I love the fact that each of her books can be read as a stand alone as well. 1mo
bookandbedandtea I'd be interested in joining! 📬 1mo

BookishBrunette1 @bookandbedandtea would you be willing to get in touch via Facebook messenger or email for the planning process? That might be easier and faster than here since there isn't an instant messaging feature or a way to contact each other directly other than commenting on each other's posts (unless there's a feature I don't know about.) 1mo
StayCurious I‘d be interested but I‘m in Canada. Not sure where you both are posting from? 4w

hya Hii!! Nice to meet you ❤️ I wanted to ask what is LMPBC and how can one be part of it?? I live in India btw 4w
BookishBrunette1 @hya I don‘t remember what each letter stands for. We each start with a book from our own shelf, and write our thoughts in the margins (or a separate paper) as we read. Once we finish our book, we send it to another participant. By the end of the swap, every participant has read their own book and all of the books chosen by other participants, and shared their thoughts. It‘s fun, but it might be hard to do since we live so far apart. 4w
bookandbedandtea I'm in Colorado. I'd be happy to send you an email if you'll add yours here. I agree that it would be easier to coordinate that way. 4w
