Is anyone interested in a #NFNovember Readathon this year? Or is someone already hosting and I missed it? #NFNovember

kspenmoll I would have one -NF- I am so slow at reading NF this would help. Your kitty looks like my Poe although he has more black. Love when they find nooks & crannies to hang out in! (edited) 2d
Sace I would be interested. Like @kspenmoll I am working on a NF now and it would be helpful to have extra motivation. 2d
JenReadsAlot I try to read a lot of NF so would be interested! 2d

#haikuhive #haikuaday

I was devastated to learn of the passing of Diane Keaton, one of my favorite actresses. What a light and a legend. It seems a lot of my favorite actors, singers, etc. are dying and are adding to the despair that is this year.
RIP, Ms. Keaton. Time to revisit your gold standards, especially THE FIRST WIVES CLUB. 🧡💜💛

So… yeah… zero nonfiction this month, so I guess my bracket will get an extra book from October. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I wasn‘t a Swamplandia fan and thus initially passed this one up, so I‘m glad the #NBAlonglist for fiction got me to read it. I found this unique Dust Bowl historical fiction with some fantastical components to be fully engrossing. The characters are great and I like that we hear rotating perspectives from them, which helps keep the book moving. I really liked it!

Aims42 Ooo, awesome review! I have this on my TBR pile, I‘ll put it towards the top now 👍 3w
squirrelbrain Great review! I just started this…. 3w
Hooked_on_books @squirrelbrain I‘m so interested to see what you think of it! 3w

Recently found this hidden gem - a waterfall in one of the local parks in Raleigh! It used to be a working mill and it‘s now a cute little spot to take in some natural beauty.

The Antidote | Karen Russell

The Antidote is so different: it‘s historical fiction but felt fresh. The point of view is constantly changing so the action is slow and even feels a bit repetitive but I think that is actually a good thing for this novel. There‘s also Wizard of Oz vibes, weirdly. I hadn‘t encountered that in other reviews I‘ve read, but the town is Uz, and there‘s a scarecrow. Stolen lands, a collective misremembering & willful ignorance, it‘s America!

squirrelbrain Great review! I borrowed this from the library but didn‘t bring it to Gladstone‘s- now I wish I had! 4w
Chelsea.Poole @squirrelbrain thanks! There‘s so much going on in The Antidote, it‘s one I didn‘t exactly love while reading but the meaning of it all and thinking back on it makes me appreciate it. If you try it I hope it works for you. Also, I love the Gladstone‘s trip each year. I stalk everyone‘s accounts to see the photos you all post. Have a great weekend! 4w
squirrelbrain You should try to come to Gladstone‘s one year! It‘s such a long way for you, I know, but you‘d love it! 4w
Hooked_on_books I just finished this and totally had the Oz vibes, too. Especially as there‘s also a witch! I kept trying to figure out who the lion and tin man were. 😬 3w
vivastory Your Oz reference has me really intrigued! I've been reading the series and I love Russell, a bit of a no-brainer 1d
