#bookspin Interesting story of an impoverished girl in the Middle Ages (?) - lots of talk of the persecution of women / accusations of witchcraft. It was interesting but didn‘t really grip me..

L to R: Libby, Kobo, 📖Physical & 🎧Audible
There‘s been lots of major cleaning & very little reading taking place this week but, that being said, I have these open books for any downtime & 🎧some tasks.
The bingo gods were not with me for this month‘s #bookspinbingo! I did get bingo, but look at all those almost ones!!
That‘s what I get for reading my feelings more than ever in February. At least I finished by #bookspin book
A very blue library haul. I cannot for the life of me remember who or what had me request the tagged book! But I guess we will see how it goes.
Everyone seems to hate Extinction of Irena Rey so I thought I would give it a try 😂 I feel I enjoyed her last book more than others and I love to be a contrarian
I read about Vanishing Treasures in my research for possible Women's Prize nonfiction books. Not sure if essays count there

March saw me finishing the very good Laidlaw trilogy. Laidlaw is a curious detective who makes few friends within the Glasgow police force where he works. I am curious to read the Ian Rankin book in which he reimagines Laidlaws early days.
#12booksof2024 @andrew65 February and I picked up a book I had left unread in my huge tbr pie in anticipation of seeing the film adaptation. I'm still not sure why I didn't read it sooner as it was a brilliant piece of gothic comic writing that far surpassed the movie, albeit they made a good attempt. I then bought Lanark, so I plan to get to it in 2025
