pickLike with most short story collections, I liked some more than others. So many were heartbreaking. But also full of love of family. Sony‘s Gone might have been my favorite, but The Bones of Louella Brown was also a favorite. #bookspin @TheAromaofBooks
Having finished Miss Dior and loved it - I‘m going to move on to book 2 on my #auldlangspine2025 from @TheBookHippie Think I‘m going to dip into a few of the short stories first and then maybe one or two of her book reviews. Never read anything by Dorothy Parker - but she sounds a super interesting woman so excited to get immersed in her brain.
With over 600 pages of short stories, this was almost the only thing I read in September. Even if I had read more books, this might still be a pick. So many great stories by European & North American authors known (thanks to the 1001-Books list!) and quite a few new to me as well.

Hi @TheBookHippie - this will be my second book from your fabulous #auldlangspine2025 list. I couldn‘t get hold of the exact Dorothy Parker that you had read - but I‘ve not read anything by her so I opted for this collected works. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Day 18: Tree. Well says it all in the title. I like to mix up holiday romance with a bit of murder this time of year.

When you can‘t believe what you read so you create a spot to commemorate it in your reading journal.
pick3⭐️ This is a perfect book for Halloween. 11 stories about ghosts 👻 I would‘ve given a higher rating if the endings are more conclusive. I was left feeling unsatisfied for most. My favorites are “Afterward” and “A Bottle of Perrier.” There‘s no ghost for the latter but a gruesome finding at the end, and I found it the most entertaining.
