pickA visually stunning coffee-table book that chronicles the glamour, history, and cultural significance of Hollywood‘s most exclusive post-Oscar celebrations. The book does more than showcase pretty pictures; it also traces how Oscar parties evolved from intimate studio gatherings in the 1940s to the high-profile, branded spectacles of today. Readers interested in Hollywood history will appreciate the timeline of shifting trends in fame and media.
Libraries are helpful in so many ways .
I read three bangers in a row but The Antidote was the best book this year, absolutely incredible. I personally did not enjoy The Long Island Compromise.
pick★★★★☆
Nice review of Francis's first couple years of public events.

📖: Pope Francis: A Photographic Portrait of the People's Pope by Michael Collins, featuring photography by Rodolfo Felici
so-soThis was interesting but not engaging. The characters resembled game pieces. If there was a plot, it was vague enough to escape notice. The author‘s descriptions of the dust storms were the most visceral and true of anything in the novel.
Thanks to @Eggs & @TheSpineView for the #WondrousWednesday tags.🤗
1. Currently I‘m pet-less. It was 2 years ago in Feb that I lost my Max🐱💔after 19 years. He had a tough last year & my heart hasn‘t been ready for another yet. I feel I‘ll know when the time is right.

panAfter 43 days, I am calling it. I can‘t push myself any further. I tried the digital arc that I received, then I added the audio, then I added a print copy, in hopes that I would be able to push thru. I love this period of US History, but the slow meandering plot just did me in. Also, at this part of the book, some things were added to the story that I felt just slowed it down further and didn‘t make sense with where things were going. I read 👇🏻
