Old Bones | Douglas Preston, Lincoln Child

pick

From the creators of my favourite book series (Agent Pendergast 🙌) comes a brand new series with two intelligent and strong female leads. A mix of archeological history and FBI procedural, this first book did not disappoint! Looking forward to the next instalment. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Booked2019 #Booked2019Summer #bookgiftedtoyou #seasonalreadingchallenge

The Goldfinch: A Novel (Pulitzer Prize for Fiction) | Donna Tart

pick

Happy I listened to this on audio because I think it would have been a slog to get through it had I read it. Listening to it brought all the intricate descriptions to life. I‘m really looking forward to watch the movie. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Booked2019 #Booked2019Summer #booktomovie #seasonalreadingchallenge #birdoncover

Harbor Me | Jacqueline Woodson

pick

My companion during #schoolpickup this week. A beautifully written and touching story of compassion, understanding, acceptance and the uplifting and supportive power of friendship. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Booked2019 #Booked2019Summer #diversemiddlegrade

Cinfhen, BarbaraTheBibliophage, alisiakae

alisiakae Great pick! I've read some of her books, but not this one yet. Would you recommend the audio version? 5y

Cinfhen I‘ve seen glowing reviews for this book 5y

throwmeabook @4thhouseontheleft the audio is full cast - not sure if I like that. I would have liked to have had the book to go back and reread some passages/lines that touched me. 5y

Can't We Talk about Something More Pleasant?: A Memoir | Roz Chast

pick

This one was featured in ‘1000 Books to Read Before You Die‘ and caught my eye. A memoir, told through comics interspersed with prose, of the author‘s last few years with her parents, their health decline and death. Honestly this one hit close to home as my husband and I care for his aging parents and aunt. There was a lot of head nodding on my part, lots of laughs and even a few tears.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Booked2019 #Booked2019summer #comicorgraphicnovel

BarbaraTheBibliophage Aww sounds like a good pick! 📚♥️👊🏻 5y

BkClubCare Oh! It‘s on the 1000+ list? Cool 13mo

A Torch Against the Night | Sabaa Tahir

pick

Continuing with the #24in48 readathon this morning. My time is nothing to brag about but I‘m happy to have finished this book. Absolutely loved it! Often the second book in a series never lives up to the first but with A Torch Against the Night, the author has written another wonderfully crafted, intriguing, intelligent and hugely entertaining instalment to the story of Laia, Elias and Helene. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #muslimauthor #Booked2019 #Booked2019summer

Cinfhen, BarbaraTheBibliophage, 24in48, alisiakae

TheShaggyShepherd I haven‘t made it much further either. I‘ll be happy if I make 12 hours but it‘s still fun to make reading a priority even if life gets in the way. :) 5y

BarbaraTheBibliophage Nice review! And great job on checking off another prompt! 5y

Cinfhen So many people used the readathon to knock out #Booked2019 prompts!!! WinWin ♥️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 5y
