#June #BookspinBingo list. Keeping it vague, focusing on unread #ARCs in June. @TheAromaofBooks Anyone else follow #ModernMrsDarcy ? Loving her summer reading list this year!

LeslieO Yes! My TBR is blown up from MMD Summer Reading Guide. I‘m no longer on her Patreon because I wasn‘t talking advantage of the extras. So I just bought the guide. So glad she added that option this year. (edited) 11mo
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! 11mo

Madame Bovary | Gustave Flaubert

#ModernMrsDarcy book club flight pick for March 2023 #MMDBookClub

#StoryGraph: fiction classics emotional reflective sad
372 pages • first pub 1857

Emma Bovary, daughter of an uneducated farmer and wife of a dull doctor in northern France, harbors a passion for everything beyond her grasp—sophistication, romance, love, and deliverance from her banal provincial life.

In its day, Madame Bovary was condemned as an affront to public morals. Yikes!

Modern Mrs. Darcy strikes again! Such a great list complied and plenty I will add to my #tbr. Black History needs to be celebrated 365 days a year! Not just (the shortest month of the year) February.

I have been seeing reading challenges being posted and I thought I would do some 2022 planning myself. I really like the prompts from #modernmrsdarcy.

I plan to try harder on my #bookspin next year. I also want to establish a more consistent reading time (probably 1 hour before bed time). There are other things I would like to work on, but for now these are my priority!

Does anyone have any goals they are excited about?

BookBabe I‘m excited for the #BibleBuddyRead I‘m hosting—we‘re going to read the entire Bible in one year! 😃 Your journaling is gorgeous! 🙌🏻 Makes me want to do some 😄 2y
BookBabe @CafeBookstelo Thought you‘d appreciate this post ☝🏻😁 2y
LiteraryinLawrence Such a pretty spread! 2y
wisherwishinguponastar @BookBabe @LiteraryinLawrence Thanks, guys! Having a book journal was definitely one of my favorite things I started in 2021! 2y

Loved the movie and loved this on audio. I discovered that a man local to my area was killed during this time in this are of Vietnam. This makes me proud to be the daughter, granddaughter, niece and cousin to former or current service members.

I put this on hold after seeing it in Modern Mrs Darcy‘s summer reading guide. It was worth the wait.

I think this might be a case of the right book at the wrong time for me. The world is so crazy right now, and this very dystopian novel is set just a few years from now. I couldn‘t wait to be finished. If it wasn‘t the October book for #mmdbookclub, I would have DNF‘d it and come back to it later. #modernmrsdarcy #Libby #audiobook
