Started this one tonight, which I‘ve been wanting to read forever. Four chapters in, liking it a lot. My grandmother‘s name was Mabel, so it gives me a jolt every time the main character is referred to by name! 😄
Overall I‘m having a pretty great reading May, so far. The books have been excellent this month! #usareadingroadtrip #Alaska
I‘m digging into my TBR to fulfill some reading challenge prompts this month. I‘ve had this one on my Kindle app for awhile. It‘s good so far, moving quickly. It‘s set in the Ukrainian immigrant community of New York & Connecticut, which I know nothing about, so that‘s interesting to read about. Here I‘ve been looking for a book set in Connecticut, and it turns out I had one on my TBR pile already. 🙄 #MountTBR #usareadingroadtrip #Connecticut
I made some new bookish pages for my #bujo Are there any #'s I should know for these type of challenges? Anyone doing/tracking something similar?
pickIt took me forever to finish this book. It was a cute story, but I wasn‘t that interested, and the writing dragged for me a little. This was a romance recommendation from NPR. I‘m getting through their list, but I think I‘m just going to have to accept that romance is not my favorite genre, as I‘ve stated before. Between a pick and a so-so for me, would recommend to romance fans. This was also #Vermont for my #usareadingroadtrip.
I need something light, relaxing, and entertaining...a cozy mystery should fit the bill. #usareadingroadtrip #rhodeisland
This is SO good. I‘m so happy I picked it to be my #NorthCarolina read for #usareadingroadtrip.
I started this one yesterday for #usareadingroadtrip #WestVirginia. It‘s a memoir of growing up in coal mining country during good times (late 1950s), and getting out. Interesting to read given the current economic despair in coal country, and subsequent Trumpian support.
This book is loosely based on an actual missing child case in Baltimore, and the further I get into it, the more I want to know what happened in the real case. It was never resolved. The mom never disclosed what happened to her child. Interested to see how Laura Lippman handles it. #usareadingroadtrip #Maryland
pickI really liked this book. If you are a hardcore horror fan, I can see how this book might disappoint you. For me, the supernatural and occult elements kept the story interesting. I‘m glad I read it during Halloween season. It was spooky and unsettling, particularly the epilogue. That‘s my kind of horror novel, more psychological suspense than actual scariness. I like everything I read by @ChrisBohjalian . #usareadingroadtrip #NewHampshire
Obviously I can't complete New England in my #usareadingroadtrip without at least one @ChrisBohjalian novel. This looks like a good one for the Halloween season, too. #NewHampshire
