Read some good books in March - but The Instrumentalist by Harriet Constable takes top spot for the month. I knew nothing about this book as it was a gift so definitely a nice surprise!

Note: Not my template - off Pinterest.

While probably more fiction than historical fiction, this book captured me. A story about Anna Maria della Pieta and her journey with music. There is not much known about her but I think the author did well in writing a story around what is known about her. It is mainly a story about her and how she sees, feels and senses her music. The descriptions of colours blended with music are inspiring.

Continuing this book while our littlest attends her first birthday party without me 😭. She is quite shy so staying near by in the car in case she wants to leave early. And yes the snow has been gone for a couple of weeks and now this is what it looks like after last night's dumping 🙁

I'm loving this book so far. The descriptions of how she sees music are beautiful! I've been fully transported into the book and I just want to keep reading!

BooksandCoffee4Me I totally understand the tears. I pray she‘s having fun and meets someone kind. My son had adhd/Asperger‘s and didn‘t make friends easily. During the ninth-grade orientation social, I also waited in the parking lot anticipating his desire to leave early. BUT as the social wound down, he still hadn‘t come to the car. Finally, he opened the car door, exclaimed “I have a friend!” and the following Friday night I was crying as he was invited over!💛 (edited) 7d
Jess861 @BooksandCoffee4Me This makes my heart happy - I'm so glad your son had such a good experience at 9th grade social! 9th grade is terrifying, lol.

These parents, bravely, invited the whole class so she knew the kids but is just shy in new situations. She ended up having a blast for the entire party!

Tonight seems like a great evening for a book and snack. Going to start the tagged book with some buttery herb and garlic pretzels and an orange juice. Nothing beats a book and a snack when your heading back into winter weather after getting a tease of spring weather! I don't know much about this book but fingers crossed it's a good one.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What an incredible last book of 2024! I could tell within the first couple of paragraphs that this book is special. It has a vibrant energy radiating off the page, as if the words and characters could spring to life and waltz right into your heart. And I think they did?! I just loved it. #Aardvark #AardvarkBookClub

My Christmas book haul for 2024. It was another year of getting very little reading done because it was just so busy. Kind of crazy how a new job combined with kids growing up and joining more activities can take over your life. Now that things have settled a bit, I'm hopeful that I will have more time to read in 2025! I've joined way too many challenges to try and push myself to read more 😆.

This could inspire young artists as this gives us a glimpse of Kandinsky‘s life and rise of his art fame journey.

I‘ve had this book for YEARS and finally read it. Sweet story about a 13yo discovering and growing into herself and her synesthesia- meaning she sees colors and shapes in letters, numbers and sounds.
