pickI‘ve had All The Birds In The Sky sitting on my bookshelf for years, waiting to be read - but of course this ends up being my first CJA. A delightful short read, follows Marisol, who survived the apocalypse accidentally (she was cleaning a rich guys house at the time and found the panic room) as she ventures outside after many years to find herself all alone… in a devastated world with a genie lamp. Her approach to setting things right is unique.
Words can‘t express how happy I am for a “surprise” extra day off! 😂😂😂

My husband has a conference so I decided to host a readathon! I'm hoping to get through at least 2 books. 💐📚
I‘ve never been a huge fan of Melville‘s work BUT I‘ve never read any of his short stories which are supposed to be excellent. So, here goes. Let‘s see if these change my opinion…

This was a short story about a young girl and her lover. The first half of the story was so so but the second half was very interesting. I was also not expecting the ending.

pickHG Wells builds a world, in an isolated and remote place in South America, where not a single person has eyesight. One mountaineer who can see reaches their world accidently and what happens to him is revelation about how human society functions
so-soFor me, short stories are a challenge to enjoy. I‘ve analyzed my struggle and concluded that‘s because most of them are too short. For instance, with Paul Tremblay‘s short story, In Bloom, I was completely sucked into the beginning. The ending was abrupt. I wish there was about 1-2 more hours, just to expand the story a bit more. I‘ll keep trying short stories; always in hope to read a gem!

pickMind The Trigger Warnings...and then dive in and get caught up in this spicy #chunkster RH read. A total binge worthy book. I loved all of these perfectly imperfect characters. Off to order the next book! #bookspin #LittensLoveRomance @thearomaofbooks
