The stooping figure of my mother, waist-deep in the grass and caught there like a piece of sheep‘s wool, was the last I saw of my country home as I left it to discover the world.
Phew!
I discovered a lovely illustrated copy of this at a little library. Loving it.

Meant to post this at the beginning of the month and forgot but these were my February #bookspin #doublespin picks.

I still haven‘t gotten to them but I‘m hopeful to get caught up in March.

I'd requested this ARC before the October
attack on Israel

It is & remains gut-punch history. Yes it's a
good read but if you are now or remain
unaware of the hows, whens & whys of the
Jewish diaspora this would be a great
starting point.

This is a painful read.

I realized halfway through I had already read my #doublespin, but I enjoy books about complicated parental relationships, so it was fine. 🙂

Sofia has traveled to Spain with her mom for her mom to seek treatment for a mysterious illness at an expensive private clinic. While there, Sofia navigates romantic entanglements, her estranged dad, and the doctor not being who he seemed. The setting in both Spain and Greece is gorgeous! A breath of summer!

squirrelbrain Loved this one - a bit weird, but in a good way. 3mo
Megabooks @squirrelbrain totally agree! 3mo
BarbaraBB This is my favorite by her! 3mo

Megabooks @BarbaraBB I‘ve only read this and August Blue. Strangely enough, one of the embroidery colors Ingrid works with is specifically named August Blue in caps. Weird Easter egg! 3mo
BarbaraBB That is weird! I haven‘t read August Blue yet. I should, I guess. 3mo
Megabooks @BarbaraBB I liked this more but AB is definitely worth reading! 3mo
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! 3mo

From the Little Free Library today. I plan to use it for #Spain for #foodandlit. Apparently the detective in the book is a “gourmet.” @Catsandbooks

Catsandbooks Nice find! 3mo
