1- yes it can expand and reflect your own experiences of the time period

2-tagged is Vonnegut‘s response to the turbulent and existentialist absurdity/cruelty of the Vietnam war era

I borrowed this from Insta and tagged the first book to deeply affect me. What is this book for you?

Librarybelle That‘s a really good question! 2d
freeatlast1137 Walk Two Moons by Sharon Creech. 2d
Texreader @freeatlast1137 I need to read that one! One or both of the kids should still have a copy I think. 2d

Bookwormjillk I loved Ramona Quimby books as a kid- her family with the smoking Dad and the economic troubles was so relatable. As an adult A Tree Grows in Brooklyn was a big one. Good question! 2d
Texreader @Bookwormjillk I think its so important to read books that we can associate with especially as children. And I need to read A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. I‘ve read so many things about how it affects people! 2d
Ruthiella I don‘t know if it was the first, but I also felt a connection to A Wrinkle in Time when I first read it as a child. It gave me goosebumps. 2d
TheBookHippie Camilla by Madeleine affected me more. I‘d say Judy Blume or Anne Frank. (edited) 2d
TheBookHippie @Texreader oh you‘ll love Walk Two Moons! 2d
marleed It would be Charlotte‘s Web read aloud over time by my 3rd grade teacher for me🐷🕷️🕸️ 2d

Mehso-so

This book posed a great case for taking a vacation in Italy (as if I needed to be coerced), but I have SO many questions about the plot. Fine for a beach read—but ultimately not able to satisfy my curiosity about too many issues.

I found this such an interesting premise & the mystery surrounding why Jen‘s son commits murder at the beginning is quickly put on the back burner to the mystery around why Jen is going backwards in time. I think this could be considered more speculative sci-fi than mystery. It was fun figuring out why each day was chosen & while much of the unknown is guessable, it was still entertaining. I truly enjoy McAllister‘s writing.

This was a phenomenal read. I was hesitant to read it because sometimes books depicting slavery are hard to get through. But this was a great read

I #found a spine poem on my shelves:

Homebody life,
The knowing, trouble…

Kitchen table wisdom
in a special light.

Survival lessons
A tear and a smile
Man‘s search for meaning -
I‘d rather be reading

repost for @TheSpineView:

It was a tie between Recursion and Mickey7. I've read both, so I didn't care either way. l tossed a coin (literally) and the winner is Recursion. If you guys want, we can read Mickey7 in July. Just let me know your thoughts.

TheSpineView Thanks! 4d
