bailedI didn't realize this was a murder mystery. I tried to stick it out, but I just don't care.

February #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin
I'm going to live la vida loca and read the DoubleSpin first!😲 Crazy, right?! 🤣
pickI really enjoyed this contemporary MG novel about a boy running a family greenhouse with his older brother after the death of their parents. His teacher assigns a project in which he must relate events & tasks in his own life to the 12 labors of Hercules. There‘s a lot of mythological information and an amazing setting on Cape Cod alongside a story of the importance of found family (including pets) and community connection.

Pic collage will only let me add 20 pics. But here‘s my #Top24of24
The other four are:
You could make this place beautiful by Maggie Smith
Britney‘s memoir
All the colours of the dark
And The Christmas Guest by Peter Swanson
pickI really enjoyed this. An artist couple living in isolation on Cape Cod (the real life artists Jo and Edward Hopper) get drawn into the lives of two boys and the extended family. The boys are heartbreaking and delightful; I loved seeing artist Mr Aitch get drawn out of himself by them. I pretty much hated everyone else, but in the best bookish way. There‘s a lot not told, it‘s left to the reader to interpret. It‘s slow, thoughtful and gentle.

Such a gorgeous Sunday! Hiked 2.7 miles this morning; of which the Grand did 2.2 before wanting her stroller--super impressed💞
And now I'm going to sit outside and start my #DoubleSpin before the fam comes for dinner.
so-soIt took me a bit longer than normal to get into the book, but I did. I could see what was coming a mile away, though I'm pretty sure it's not supposed to be shocking. The MC's naivete just about drove me nuts a few times though. This gave me such Rory vibes from The Gilmore Girls- naivete and all. The end was definitely lackluster...and yet realistic, in part at least.
