Lesliereadsalot @BarbaraBB and I are going to rejuvenate #EuropaCollective in September after camp. Maybe we could start in June with your book? 11m

tpixie @Lesliereadsalot That sounds great! Yes, we could read this in June as a little teaser for the official re- opening in September! ( Hope it doesn‘t interfere with your camp) 5m

tpixie @RowReads1 Have you read it yet? If not, join in June! 3m

julesG Guess I'm the only one who read this? I listened to the audiobook which had some fun effects, like public announcements sounded like you're actually at the train station. Other than that it was mainly commentary on different places and people on Discworld. 1d

kwmg40 None of the libraries I have access to had a copy and I wasn‘t sure this companion book was worth purchasing, so I‘m skipping it for now. Hope to get to it eventually if I can get hold of a copy. 1d

julesG @kwmg40 You didn't miss much. Honestly. Mrs Bradshaw travels the Disc by train and writes her travel log. I didn't have the impression it added a lot to my knowledge of Discworld 1d

kwmg40 Thanks. Good to know this one can be skipped without missing any really important Discworld info. I‘ve moved on to our next book, Guards, Guards, and enjoying the reread even more than my first read of it. 24h

#Read2025

I‘m catching up on my April reviews this weekend & I loved this book! A good thing as it was a trifecta of challenge prompts: #AuthorAMonth #LiteraryCrew #BuddyRead & one of the books from @JacqMac ‘s #AuldLangSpine list. This is my third Kate Quinn book & maybe my favorite. The audiobook was stellar & I finished & listened to the author notes twice + an interview with the author & narrator who really brought the characters to life. ⬇️

DebinHawaii … I learned a lot about the Red Scare, McCarthy & Washington DC in the era. The mystery was good as was the ways the characters were introduced & their layers uncovered. I also enjoyed the sentient Briar House & the communal dinners with recipes & music selection of the times included. It kept me engrossed during lots of airport commutes in April & will likely be a favorite of the year for me. 5d

DieAReader 🎉🥳Awesome!! 5d

JacqMac Kaye Quinn never disappoints. 5d

Librarybelle Yay!! 5d

#Read2025 #MonthlyNonFiction

I‘m behind on reviews & discussion but I finished this for April‘s #Naturalitsy #BuddyRead I borrowed an ebook copy from the library & it‘s a quick & interesting book of essays about the Owens Valley & Mohave Desert in California. Written in 1903, it‘s wonderful nature writing & while my version may have suffered for lack of photos, the writing was descriptive enough to make me see it in my mind. While reading & ⬇️

DebinHawaii …stopping to Google more details, I found out/realized that From 1942 to 1945, during World War II, the first Japanese American Internment camp operated in the Owens valley at Manzanar. Maybe it‘s only interesting to me because I grew up reading & rereading the book tagged below but I like when I can tie books together. A enjoyable read overall, I would buy a print copy (hopefully with pictures) for my shelves.
