January 2025 Book #11
This retelling for me is poor integrating and even boring. I‘m not the target audience but didn‘t like it. However, the illustrations are beautiful made by the author. 2⭐️

“To the gremlin girls,
I would like to tell you something inspiring,
but the truth is,
when life closes a door for us,
it doesn‘t always open a window.
The good news is:
that‘s what bricks are for.”

Little Thieves by Margaret Owen

Margaret Owen is quickly making herself an auto buy author for me!

Sally had found a way to be just as happy as Abigail was; she just knew it.
And hopefully she‘d get to hear all about it next Halloween. 🎃

I can‘t believe it‘s time for May‘s #bookspin list already! Where has the year gone?

Here is yet another “slice of my bookshelves”, plus a few options for my topic bookclub: May‘s topic is a book with a map. And Advice for Future Corpses is for another bookclub.

What will @TheAromaofBooks choose for us this time?

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 1d

HeyT @5feet.of.fury Nice. I actually haven't read any of her works before. It's part of this long term goals challenge I'm doing. 2d

This was so fun! I only just learned about the Manga classics series. The manga was pretty faithful to the original; I was impressed. They definitely leaned into the romantic side of things make than the original. The scenes with the Palmers were mostly excluded, and that jewelry shop scene was new. Marianne‘s sickness also wasn‘t as serious here as the original. The art of the characters was very pretty. Bummer it wasn‘t in color.

1. I do still carry cash, but it‘s also true that the same bills may sit in my wallet for months! I also hardly ever use personal checks anymore. How times have changed!
2. Beautiful Little Fools is full of wealthy characters who are very much affected by their status, as it is a different slant on The Great Gatsby.
