pickMy family attended this exhibition at the MET in NYC during this past year. I purchased the tagged book as a complement to the extraordinary exhibit. Reading it has added new depth to my knowledge of Manet & Degas, their relationship, their “rivalry.”
Burnt Echo reading today while snuggled in bed. #readyourkindle #serieslove2024 Hope to finish A Grief Observed tomorrow. Reading just a few chapters in The Cabaret of Plants, & The Art of Rivalry (Started ages ago). All 3 #NFNovember choices. Donna Leon, my escape to Venice & mystery.
pickThis was so so good 🥹 I couldn‘t put it down! Ilya and Shane went through so much together, and you could see a lot of growth in their relationship. Ilya is sick of hiding, and he feels isolated with no one to talk to about being in a secret relationship with his rival. To make things worse, Shane doesn‘t seem to get it. What will matter more, them or hockey? I loved how many more side characters were in this one from the series ♥️🏒
1) ☕️☕️☕️🥃🍷🫖🍿🧀🥜🍏-always a drink & breakfast or snack
2) tagged book, The Art of Rivalry
I picked up this fascinating, informative book at the Met today. On the train home I read about the artists Freud & Bacon, who I am ashamed to say I knew absolutely nothing about until this book.
It was such fun to see the City all dressed up for The holidays!
Presenting all my new-to-me 5-star reads of 2022! (I never count rereads on Best Of lists, or Tamsyn Muir‘s GIDEON THE NINTH would be here too. I loved that book SO MUCH MORE the second time through.)
While I‘m incoherent with love for each of these, I‘ve got a clear tie for first place: the tagged book and THE DEVIL COMES COURTING by Courtney Milan. They both blew me away and keep popping back into my head weeks and months later. #bestof2022
I had another hefty reading month, thanks in large part to yesterday‘s Readathon. More importantly, I read SO MUCH GREAT STUFF, including a whopping 3 new-to-me 5-star reads! Along with the tagged book (which I still can‘t stop thinking about), I adored THE INVISIBLE LIFE OF ADDIE LARUE by V.E. Schwab and RUN TOWARDS THE DANGER by Sarah Polley.
