Someone recommended this book to Tim Miller of The Bulwark, he added to footnotes, I borrowed it. Originally published in 1947, Reck details the rise of Hitler and Nazism with appropriate horror. I‘m only a bit into it , this paragraph !

pickLove this series for kids that can read by themselves. That artwork on the cover tells it all. #ISpyBingoApril @TheAromaofBooks
pickDipped into this for five months. I always liked it. I don‘t know if I could have read it in one go, but i am now considering reading the sequel.
pickThus is an interesting read of course because of its historical significance, but also because it is a true coming of age story of a girl in hiding with her family during WWII. It‘s a bit hard to read as it‘s the ramblings & misspellings & grammatical errors of a teen, but worth it all the same.
Y‘all. If we‘ve been connected since the early days, this will blow your mind. This is my youngest. He was two when I joined. He turned 11 in Feb, and is as big as me now. 🥺
I found him searching for special edition Wimpy Kid books. He loves those so much, he‘s read all 19 at least twice. Some as many as 3-4 times. They are his happy place.
pickI'm late posting. This author is fascinating. I do think this might be her house diary and her scandals are written down somewhere else. It makes me want to read her letters.

pickI really enjoyed our April #SUNDAYBUDDYREAD book. The writing, the stories & (of course) our Sunday discussions were so good. I love how much I learn from these reads & discussions and how readily I jump into books I wouldn‘t have chosen for myself.

Read with #SundayBuddyRead I had heard of poet Edna St. Vincent Millay & was familiar with a few of her more famous poems but through this memoir/biography created from her journals , I was able to learn about her life. From the mundane moments to her popularity & celebrity of her times, we get glimpses of her daily life & the world around her. While not always extremely likable, she was a talented force of nature.
