repost for @AllDebooks
We have 2 titles to choose from for our #MidsummerSolace #buddyread
These are intended to be very relaxed, read at your own pace.
Poppy Okotcha's memoir: this title is not available in the US until the end of June. I'm happy to continue the #buddyread into July and August, if you want to join in.
Alternatively, we have Tove Jansson's novel. All are welcome to join us.
For #nationalindependentbookstoreday 🇺🇸, I spent a few hours hunting down books that would replace lost library books and delete student fines. It was so hard not to buy books I love and focus on specific titles. It's also #schoollibrarymonth. If your kids have outgrown their books, see if the local grade school will take them.

#MidsummerSolace #buddyread 2nd choice is Tove Jansson's 1972 novel.
The non-fiction choice is unavailable in US until late June. So, with that in mind, I will run a relaxed fiction (tagged) and non-fiction (A Wilder Way) #buddyread
for those wishing to participate.
All welcome. Please let me know if you wish to be added/removed from the taglist.

pickTypical Neil Gaiman. Well written, and keeps the wonder of being told mainly from a child perspective while not being written childishly.

pickAnother book read for #FoodandLit Ireland. This was an audiobook, told in the first person almost Luke a bibliography by a 10 year old.It was funny, and boy, could I relate to this era of growing up with no video games and being free to play outside.A little bit crude.Then it took a little turn, and it also made me cry.If you listen to this book, you have to make sure to remember the decade it was.I totally got it as it was my decade to grow up in
pickA very enjoyable read with memorable characters. Written in short vignettes, it is easy to pick up for short reading sessions. 🇫🇮
Lovely.
An island, a grandmother, granddaughter, loss and love.
