so-soGlamorous Notions had some fascinating historical details, especially about the hidden recordings of Nagasaki and Hiroshima and the use of X-ray sheets for music. But overall, the plot didn‘t go anywhere and failed to keep me engaged. I found it more interesting in parts than as a whole.
My growing Babitz collection.
pickThis book got on my radar bc it was Amazon‘s book of the year. I think the story is award worthy but it wasn‘t as engaging as I‘d hoped. I wanted more about the players and less football play by play. It‘s still worth reading!
This was my #BookSpin for April
It‘s been a minute since I‘ve participated in #weekendreads but hoping to get back into it. Generally I‘m not a big non-fiction reader but both my weekend reads are. Still following the Babitz rabbit hole and a local interest title.
I already have a lot of stuff in my planner for April so I think reading time might be the a little more scarce than usual, but I like making a dream stack anyway.
🪲 Extraordinary Insects and The Land of Little Rain - for #naturalitsy buddy reads
⛰️ When I Sing, Mountains Dance - for the #keywordreadingchallenge
❄️ Strange Weather - for an Instagram buddy read
🍎 Winter - for #serieslove2025
pickFascinating, a bit slow in places, but if you are a wine lover or interested in the history of wine, this book may be right for you. Following the wine tasting that changed the world of wine, this looks at the history of California wine and what happened when they beat the best French wines in France in 1976. I savored this one! #Doublespin #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks
