A little love story while snowed in for day 2…..
pickRead this one day by day over the last year. Microdosing inspiration from a beloved artist.
panHaving read a biography of Cleopatra VII and watched documentaries and movies, this fictional diary was definitely a let-down. Can‘t tell if it‘s disappointing because I‘m an adult or because I know so much about her life. It was mostly being stuck in Rome waiting for a Roman army to come back with her and her father to Alexandria to quell the peasant and sibling rebellions. The ending part with all the facts was more interesting.
According to Mia, I have only 2 more years to reach self actualization.
No pressure. 🙃
I'm catching up on LMM's journals and am also reading Anne of the Island, both for #kindredspiritsbuddyread. Today, I happened to read this same phrase in both books! Maud gave Anne her own dislike of change, definitely.
pickA twisty dark little book that flashes between present day NYC and a Christmas at an English manor home. A college student is invited to spend the holidays at a fellow student's home. We read her diary entries from that time, including her infatuation with her host's brother. A quick read that was a good counter to some of the saccharine holiday stories that I also enjoy.
December #wrapup.
December was so busy I‘m surprised by how much I read! Great end to the reading year.
pickI've done something dangerous. I've started a 12 book series that I will have to obsessively read.
Dare I say that this is my favorite read of 2024?
The characters and their personalities are so different from the movies, it was hard picturing Julie Andrew's. And I LOVED that. This book was so unexpected and funny.
I didn't know that I gave permission to Meg Cabot to read my own personal diary!

My June pick for #12booksof2024 with @Andrew65 I actually listened to the audiobook with a friend. Her class was reading it and she wanted to read it ahead of time. Long car ride from Florida to SC meant we listened to most of it, and I finished it at home. So so good!
