A little bit of reading time before we go watch the grandbaby in his final soccer game of the season. 😊
pickA grand story, with grand lessons and symbolism all in 145 pages.
Forward by Ann Patchett, who brought this book back into print.
While visiting Nashville, I toured Cheekwood Estate. This is a dumbwaiter in a nook off the library. They used it to easily get books up to and down from the second floor for reading in the bedrooms. Genius.
(I started the tagged book while on this trip.)
pickNot my usual sort of read, but I thought this was great! Completely bonkers plot, very very funny, and some amazing characters! Will definitely be reading some more Hiaasen.
And 2 lines in #bookspinbingo which I think is a record for me!
pickI really enjoyed reading about following the striped bass migration southward. The author stops in many places and sees firsthand what this migratory path means to the community.
pickAnother Peter Heller banger! It was fun to discover that the protagonist was one of the two main characters from The River 😊
