I‘m in heaven - and it‘s my front yard. 😁

Hammock, blanket, cooler weather, and a fun romp of a romance novel.

Suet624 How wonderful 5d
ChasingOm Update: devoured the whole book in one day. 💕 5d

Finished this late last night and immediately considered that OOOPS I was supposed to only read the first half?! #CampLitsy2025

Very pregnant Annie navigates Portland Oregon after a devastating earthquake wreaks havoc. My heart was pounding, I was incredibly thirsty, I was so scared for her & lil Bean!!

BarbaraBB Yes, the thirst!! 1mo
squirrelbrain Ah well, it‘s a very quick read so you couldn‘t help it! 🤣 1mo
Christine Pie looks amazing!! Rhubarb + practically anything is my favorite. Recently made some rhubarb + homegrown plum jam which is hard to not just eat by the spoonful. 1mo
BkClubCare @Christine - I have tried for years to grow rhubarb but it is tough to start in hot Kansas. 1mo
Christine We‘ve failed more than once in various parts of California too. 😆 Grew like a weed in Wisconsin where I grew up. 1mo

so good! a 5/5 for me. Slice of life focused ons magical zoo keeper just trying to get a critically endangered phoenix to breed.

Note: This has a heavy romance marketing. While romance is a subplot and adds to the story, it is not mostly about romance.

Grand so.

“It‘s hope that makes us afraid, and I remind myself that a man should be grateful for his fears, ‘cause it means he has something to lose and to win.”

“Directors without a producer are like a ship without a sail, the medium of wind to endeavors nautical being equivalent to coin in all theatrical,…”

Some really great sentences in this! 🌟 #debut #drama #ToF

If the author is Irish, chances are I will love the book. This is no exception. Everything feels so real, so slice of life. Sure it may be a story about some criminals kidnapping a young man and forcing another to allow them in his house, but the story is so well told.

Wild Houses: A Novel | Colin Barrett

For an upcoming week-long trip, I'm limiting myself to one physical book plus my Kobo. These two are the current front-runners---Wild Houses and Horror Movie.

Which should I bring? Or should I bring something else entirely?

Other options:

Darkly by Marisha Pessl
Baby X by Kira Peikoff
The Buffalo Hunter Hunter by Stephen Graham Jones
Stone Yard Devotional by Charlotte Wood

Pogue I like goats so I say go with Wild Houses. Even though I know nothing about it. 5mo
ImperfectCJ @Pogue As good a reason as any. And one of the places we're staying has goats, so perhaps it would be apt. 5mo
BarbaraBB I liked Wild Houses and would definitely choose 5mo
ImperfectCJ @BarbaraBB I've heard great things about that one! I'm easily distracted while traveling...is it likely to keep my attention? 5mo
BarbaraBB Yes I think so! 5mo
