#20in4 #Readathon

Bk1 of August is done! I started this during the #20in4 #readathon but put it down till today. I enjoyed this debut thriller, the plot was very smart but sometimes the writing was a bit meh. I mean, there‘s more adjectives than yell, scream etc! It reminded me a bit of They Never Learn by Layne Fargo but that book had tighter writing & more suspense. Still, not a bad first effort. #BookspinBingo #Pageathon #CloakDaggerChal

My final stats from July‘s #20in4 #readathon I kinda petered out at the end of it, had some really bad news on Sunday so wasn‘t much in a reading frame of mind, then I just went to a #comfortread of the last All Souls Trilogy audiobook instead of the thriller I‘d started. But I did get over 20hrs so Yay Me!🎉 Thanks go once again to our Captain My Captain @Andrew65 for his leadership & encouragement See you this month 🫡

@Clwojick Thanks for making a fun prompt list for the #AugustARC #Readathon! Good inspiration to read (and review!) some of my poor abandoned advance reader copies of books. 😅 I'm in, and excited to tackle these after my August 11th wedding! 😊📚

So I managed to reach a bit over half way in my #20in4 #readathon. I'm actually surprised that I read about 11 hours. That's much more than I expected! 😍

This book does not support racism towards anyone, including white people,

Two white people attacked on a beach were discouraged from pressing charges...

Fifty-three white people were fired... A lawsuit followed.

Two journalists, one white and one a person of color, were found to have past “racist“ tweets. Only one person lost her job.

All white people were ordered to leave a courtroom...

“White people are racists“ from a media apartheid.

It‘s cloudy but blessedly cool. Enjoying a mid morning coffee and a book. I am enjoying this Victorian murder mystery. The author‘s descriptions of London are vivid, especially her scenes set in the slums of London. She captures the misery of the peoples lives, especially the women‘. #coffeeandbooks #VictorianEngland ☕️📚#July #20in4 #readathon #porchlife

Day 3 of the #20in4 #Readathon went well. I got a lot of reading done today and am now at 155/204 pages toward my goal.
My favorites so far are a short story by Louise Erdrich, also an excerpt from A Train in Winter, a book about the women of the French Resistance sent to Birkenau during WWII, and a photo essay, Un-Possible Retour by Clarisse d‘Arcimoles.
I hope you‘re having fun too @Andrew65 !
