“The woman who appeals to a man‘s vanity may stimulate him, the woman who appeals to his heart may attract him, but it is the woman who appeals to his imagination who gets him.” —HELEN ROWLAND

Beatriz Williams was my choice this month for the #BacklistReadathon
I wanted more of the 1998 story and less of the prohibition story on this one, but it was still enjoyable. I‘ll probably read the sequel at some point.
I wouldn't mind living in a building haunted by jazz playing ghosts 👻🎷🎹

pickFinished this up on audio today. I enjoyed this historical fiction set in Prohibition NYC. The little bit of magical realism in the present day storyline seemed unnecessary. Looking forward to the sequel but not sure it will be anytime soon. So many books, so little time!
For some reason I thought this was going to be set in 1920s Chicago which would have been just fine with me. I‘m delighted to find its set in 1920s NYC and I‘m flying through it so far. I love when a book sucks me in from the get go.
pickFirst book I‘ve read by Beatriz Williams, definitely won‘t be my last! This was the perfect book to get me out of my reading slump ❤️
I would definitely choose the covers of Beatriz William‘s books! They are gorgeous ❤️📚 And yes, I admit that I am a #coverlover!!

panWhy I keep trying to read Fitzgerald, I will never understand. It‘s that idea that he‘s this classic author and I love classical fiction so I should be able to appreciate his work. It‘s not for me; I can‘t get passed his depiction of women. The only thing I can say is he knows how to paint a setting, I feel like I‘m actually there. Not a great start to #bookspin, so hopefully the next one is better 🤣
