Putting together the walls is frustrating. I just got my acrylic nails done for the first time in years .They‘re sparkly red. It‘s making it ten times harder 🤨😂.

I saw @Amiable posted her favourite reads from past #AuldLangSpine matches, and I love the idea! As I look forward to reading from @CarolynM's list in 2025, here are my faves from my past awesome matches:

@MeganAnn - The Girls at the Kingfisher Club (historical fiction meets fairy tale retelling at its finest)

@sprainedbrain - Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine

@monalyisha - World of Wonders (so good I've read it twice now!)

The end of an era 🥹 My daughter and I have loved all of the time we spent with the Vanderbeekers this year. We‘re sad to say goodbye. Highly recommend this series.

A fun and imaginative story line. Exposing the reader to an inspiring story about achieving your dreams.

I loved this book! The mystery was fun and Claudia such an engaging lead. #bookspin #

This collection of newspaper articles from the 1930‘s had a few really interesting ones and then a couple that while they were definitely of the time, they were tough to read now. His perspective of NYC from many different walks of life, rich and poor, during this pivotal time was illuminating and revealing. #BookspinBingo #roll100 @TheAromaofBooks @PuddleJumper

A fun chaotic story! There's a lot of characters to keep straight, but it wasn't a huge issue. I liked it. It mostly centers around one brownstone home in New York that is packed with stuff, family, life and one problem after another. Somehow it all works out. People step up to help each other out. Really enjoyed these eccentric characters. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's perfect for the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday. Puts you in the right frame of mind.

For me I loved the audio of this book. It was loud & full of emotion, the narrator really embodied Anita. The book addresses racism, classism, sexism…in the 1980s how a woman of color could be erased by a white man & her accomplishments (almost) forgotten. There are dual timelines, for me I liked hearing Anita‘s side & Raquel (a student writing her thesis for art history & stumbles upon Anita)

So boring. Don‘t bother.
