I wanted to find every spare minute to read this. I forced myself to take a break from it as the raw emotion was so real that I became depressed myself. Not just a few tears, but no desire to get out of bed or do anything depression.
Hannah writes at a caliber all her own. The characters‘ personalities and motivations are molded from childhood trauma and experiences, and the story is deeply layered. This one will stick with me.

September is not a month I would like to revisit, but I did like this middle grade book set in 1980‘s Delaware.

It‘s my birthday this month so I chose Wally Lamb‘s River is Waiting as my free book! Very excited about it. #BOTM

AmyG It‘s a wonderful, sad story. 2d
TheBookHippie Nice! 2d
marleed It‘s a really good book. If the first chapter or so seems like too much, keep going because the rhythm although still sad does change. 2d
Kitta @marleed okay noted!! Thanks for the tip. 2d

Amiable @CSeydel In 2024 I posted my monthly brackets on Facebook for some friends who are readers to follow along. It was like a social media book club and prompted discussions and sharing. I didn‘t do it in 2025 because I lost motivation and enthusiasm due to current events 😖 and all of my friends clamored for me to post again this year because they missed it. So your brackets have a wide reach! 🙂 1d
CSeydel @Amiable oh wow!!!! I‘m delighted to hear that! 1d
BethM Love it! I print it and drag my long suffering paper around my house 😂 57m

I enjoyed this gothic, dark and imaginative retelling of a famous fairytale. Be careful what you wish for! I was gripped from beginning to the end and found myself fully immersed in the murky worlds of Clara and Natasha. I had to keep on my toes as the plot is quite complicated and shifts about. Well written and engaging, this is a fantastical and magical tale with a message for us all. The grass is not always greener.

SO GOOD!!

Does Laura, the au pair, have the answer to the question that no one would ever answer?

There is plenty of mystery to keep you intrigued along with Ms Rous‘s alluring writing and secretive characters.

Nothing can top a good old mystery with family secrets, right? 5/5

Favorite June Read.

TheEllieMo Sounds like it could be an emotional read 4d
peaKnit @TheEllieMo it is a tough one tbh. This author tends to write with emotional depth that punches you in the gut in my opinion. This is no exception. (edited) 4d
Yenya1954 The River is Waiting was one of my top books of 2025, also.❤️😭 4d

I got one more audio in for the year, after figuring I wouldn't finish any more 🙄 but I had to post about this sweet little novel, I really enjoyed it. I loved how the MC's maternal feelings grew throughout the story and how she realized the kids are making her a better person than she was without them, it was really a heart warming story.

Suet624 I really liked this one too 4d
