My original book club kicked off with this one back in 2010, and my newer book club selected it for this April. It‘s been 14 years since I read this, & I still found it to be an emotionally captivating story. I listened to the truly excellent audio performances this time around & I found myself listening at every chance, even though I remembered the story quite well. Reception to this one has since shifted so I‘m looking forward to discussing it!

Finally got my list together, in no particular order, for the #readyourkindle #readyourebooks challenge. In sitting down to do this I realized two things. 1.) I have an awful lot of absolute sh!t on my Kindle. Wtf was I thinking when I bought aka freebie downloaded half of what's on there?! 😬 2.) I have a lot of really good sounding books on there so why haven't I read them yet?! 🤭 Super excited for this challenge, @CBee! 😏

CBee I realized the same things 😀😂 10mo
monkeygirlsmama @CBee I really need to go back through and just delete a bunch because there are legit a ton I know I will NEVER read based on the titles/covers alone. I am not proud of it, but I am indeed a cover snob who will judge a book by its cover. (Thankfully not like that with people. LoL) And some of the covers on my Kindle shelf are so mediocre, cheap, and trashy looking that I just can't. 🙄😆 It's possible I miss out on good books this way, but... 10mo
CBee @monkeygirlsmama I get it! Still hard to hit that delete button though 😂 I deleted a few and felt so guilty 😂 10mo
monkeygirlsmama @CBee OMG I know it! I say I need to do it, but I can almost guarantee you I won't actually. LoL 10mo

I loved this inspiring, humorous and heartwarming story that also let me learn more about the civil rights movement in the US. I'm glad to have read it for #BlackHistoryMonth, which we also observe here in Canada.

Third book finished for #FabulousFebruary @Andrew65, and my #BookSpin choice for this month. #BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

Andrew65 I loved this book. Well done 👏👏👏 2y

kwmg40 @Andrew65 @RedCurly @TheAromaofBooks Nice to see others feel the same way about the book. My husband and I watched the movie yesterday and loved it! 2y

The audio production of this book was wonderful and probably the only reason why I finished this book and am considering it a light pick. Something about a white woman (who got sued for using a maid‘s likeness in the book) writing as Black women just felt off to me. This was very much a white centered story when it had true potential to not be.
Almost finished with my cross stitch gift for my grandma! #audiostitching #litsycrafters
