Bk4 of #20in4 #readathon & Bk9 of May is done! It‘s after 4am here but the next bk is calling me. This is the 6th Wayward Children book in the series. It‘s Regan‘s story, a girl whose soul belongs to anything with hooves. So of course her door leads to the Hooflands, where she‘s taken in by a family of unicorn herding Centaurs, where she lives blissfully until it all goes wrong. Of course. #BookspinBingo #SeriesLove2023 #Pantone2023

Andrew65 Phenomenal, already broken 20 hours. 👏👏👏 5h
Lizpixie @Andrew65 thank you! To be fair, I did start at least 12hrs before most of you, with time zones etc. But I am really happy with my reading, hopefully my mojo sticks around this time. There I go, jinxing myself again!🤦🏻‍♀️ 4h
TheSpineView You're killing this! 4h

MG inspiring story of 2 kids, each with their own talents and fears, who become friends. Flint draws comics but is called Squint BC he has keratoconus, an eye disease that could eventually make him blind. McKell has a brother dying of progeria who encourages her song-writing ability.

I love this old-times cover that seems to aptly portray this time period - the formal clothes, the toasting, the lady‘s arm around the child. This was delightful - careful vignettes of the citizenry of Avonlea.

This was a fun story, and creepy/authentic at times. Still enjoying the Nancy Drew books😊

Really enjoyed this collection of teachings from Native American leaders. Now I‘m hungry for a comprehensive historical account of native Americans - can anyone recommend?

Andrew65 Excellent 👏👏👏 1d
SamAnne I would recommend the Heartbeat of Wounded Knee...a modern perspective by a Native American scholar on this history. Thunder in the Mountains, about Chief Joseph's effort to save his Nez Perce people, is one of the best histories I have read. And then, all the fiction...There, There by Tommy Orange! Or, watch Reservation Dogs on Hulu! 1d

bnp The above and The rediscovery of America by Ned Blackhawk are on my to read list. 1d
SaunteringVaguelyDownwards Seconding Reservation Dogs! We also read Black Elk Speaks by John G. Neihardt in my Native American literature class, but to interrogate it as a translation of Lakota beliefs (esp. in comparison to The Sixth Grandfather by Raymond DeMallie, which has the original transcripts of the interview with Black Elk). 1d

Bk1 of my #20in4 #readathon is done! The 3rd book in the Wayward Children series, this one‘s a strange ride. It‘s a portal plus time bending journey through a few worlds looking for Sumi so she can be resurrected & save her future daughter & her world of Confection(which is totally made of sugar foods!)Not my fave of the series but still a good story. #BookspinBingo #SeriesLove2023 #Pantone2023

I don't know that I have the words to describe how much I loved this book. I immediately reread it because I needed more Alexei and Ben. This is such a heartwarming story about two men walking the PCT, figuring themselves out, working through trauma, and finding love unexpectedly. It made me cry on multiple occasions.

Bk5 of May is also done. Novellas are great if you have a few of them to read quickly! The 2nd in the Wayward Children series, this is Jack & Jill‘s story, of their trip through their door to The Moors, a place of beauty & horror. One twin is in the vampires castle as his daughter, the other in the windmill as the mad scientist‘s apprentice. Brilliant story🖤🩶 #BookspinBingo #SeriesLove2023 #Pantone2023 #ReadySetRead

Bk4 of May is done. I started to read the 7th in this series & realised I couldn‘t remember the previous books! Stupid Covid brain fog. So I‘m rereading all of them, thank god they‘re novellas! This was just as wonderful as the first time I read it in 2016. A unique take on the portal fantasy, it‘s about the children who return & are cut adrift from both worlds. Eleanor West‘s school is their haven, until the bodies are found. #BookspinBingo 👇
