The Monet exhibit was wonderful!
pickSo, there I was, enjoying this charming and intriguing murder mystery set in Monet's hometown of Giverny and being invested in all the interesting characters, when ...BOOM! Along comes a twist so subtle yet so seismic that it blows my socks off. I genuinely did not see it coming & I thoroughly enjoyed it! What a cracking read this one was! And the ending even touched my cold, cynical heart 💙
Starting this one today. I've been on a bit of a crime spree recently.

That did not come out like I meant it to!!!
so-soA graphic novel exploring the life of Monet. While his paintings are beautiful explorations of light, His personal choices are often selfish and frustrating. He spent most of his life in debt while never curbing his spending. I loved learning more about the other artists in the impressionist movement though. I also loved the way the artists incorporated guys art into their telling of his story.
Forgot to post my #AdventRecommends yesterday so you‘ll get another two today!
The lyrical quality of the writing in this crime novel sets it apart from others in the genre. I found it beautiful and captivating.

pickThis is a pick with one giant reservation (see spoiler in comments if you want to know). The prose is beautiful, smooth, and compelling, with near perfect pacing. There are three storylines that merge in a very unexpected way and it‘s absolutely brilliant. #lmpbc
Just out of curiosity, how many books do you try to read every month? Do you set a goal?
The books arrived today, Jill. Thank you.
Allison - I have two ARCs I have to read, but as soon as I finish them, I‘ll get your book read and on its way to you.
