I am posting one book per day from my to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new - don‘t judge me I have a lot of books.
Join the fun if you want. This is day 255.

Is anyone ever going to learn not to let Bucky make the plans, ever?

Brought Dad lunch today and got a book report. Braving It - interesting but why would you take your daughter to a place like that and risk her life? (Shakes head in disbelief)
Grunt - I like this author but I can‘t go to sleep after reading about people getting bits blown off. DNF
Falcon Thief (rec from @Cinfhen ) - very interesting. (I pressed for more detail) I have to keep moving while my pies are still warm. ⬇️

Centique He did add “the problem with good books is I stay up too late. And then I haven‘t finished but I have to go to bed so I grab something to stick in it. Paper or something. Today I opened a book and found a note saying Ring Robyn. So I forgot to ring Robyn.” Note to self: give Dad some bookmarks (edited) 4y
Centique Sorry about the lack of detail @Cinfhen but he enjoyed his mince pies! 4y
Ruthiella Would bookmarks really solve the problem? 😅 4y

Centique @Ruthiella it‘s questionable! 😂😂 4y
LeahBergen Come on, do you blame him? It‘s mince pies! ❤️❤️ 4y
Centique @LeahBergen ooh I just thought - some people might think Christmas mince pies - these were beef mince pies. 👍 4y
LeahBergen I assumed it was minced beef. 😆 In Canada, we generally call the Christmas mince pies “mincemeat tarts” (although my American friends don‘t really know what those are, usually 😆). 4y
Centique @LeahBergen it‘s amazing how often Canada has the same terms as Aus and NZ - that British influence! We just call them all mince pies and get my kids very confused. 😂 4y
AlaMich Great reviews by His Elderliness as always! 😂 4y
batsy Ahahaha! Warm pies are a priority 💜 4y
Cinfhen I‘m just delighted by this entire post and exchange....please clarify the difference between mince pies and Christmas mince pies....I‘m Jewish, American and totally confused xxx 4y
Megabooks @Cinfhen I don‘t understand the difference either. #americanproblems 4y
Reggie Lol, yeah, I am also mince pie clueless. If there ever was a cozy post. This is it. 4y
Cinfhen All this talk of pies is making me VERY HUNGRY @Reggie @Megabooks 😋 (edited) 4y
TrishB Hubby loves mince pies (for the sake of this thread- the Christmas ones!) Beef mince pies we would just call a beef pie 🤷‍♀️ 4y

This is perfect for fans of "The Feather Thief". I was fascinated by that story and listened to the audiobook of this one which was incredibly similar but a different underground trade altogether. This time, the author investigates falcon collectors. It's amazing how selfish and ridiculous people can be when it comes to animals and using them for their own gain. Drives me over the edge. This is a nonviolent #truecrime.

Sneaking this one in, as Amazon says published in September 2015, for #BBRC #ER #POCCharacterPublishedWithin5Years.

Not too sure how to review easy readers, but I guess this would have a lot of appeal for slightly older readers with a lower reading level. Lots of repeated words, but it still feels more like a ‘proper‘ book than a reader. @LibrarianRyan @Sarahreadstoomuch

LibrarianRyan 😁👍🏻❤️ 4y
ravenlee I‘ve seen the term high/low - high interest/low reading level. Engaging books for older readers who are still working on their reading skills. 4y
rockpools @ravenlee That sounds like what we‘ve got here. Thanks! 4y

DNF - I got about a third of the way into this one and I‘m bored. Back to the library it goes!

BookNAround How disappointing! I have it on my tbr list so I hope I get on better with it. 5y
Redwritinghood @BookNAround I hope so too! 5y

Falconry is an ancient Arabic art dating back thousands of centuries and the history attached is absolutely fascinating. Who knew that the crown price of Dubai in the early 1990‘s would bring the sport of falconry back into vogue and in the process unwittingly create a hotbed of illegal activities. For fans of The Feather Thief and The Dragon Behind The Glass, The Falcon Thief is an egg-cellent true crime caper😉 #ARC #NetGalley

Cinfhen I didn‘t realize it‘s the same author until I got to his bio at the end of this book. I definitely want to read your tagged book!!! I‘ve previously stacked it but now I need to bump it up the TBR @CSeydel 😄 5y
