My daughter and I binged Sister Wives last year when she and my granddaughter were living with us. It was a great nightly ritual for us to unwind together after busy days. Since Christine's book just came out, I figured I'd start at the beginning before reading it.
Recent acquisition for our personal library.

Susan Powell‘s story. This is very disturbing from the newlywed start. Creeps beget freaking creeps. There is ZERO doubt what happened, and yet, ZERO justice. These types of cases are utterly infuriating. Grabbed this after listening to a recent episode of Murder in America Podcast.

@TheAromaOfBooks, I have two library books to read!
Both of these books have no challenges already assigned to them, so these are two I'm hoping to get to in July anyway!
The Tursten book in the 3rd in a series. The tagged book is a nonfiction book which is sadly relevant today.

pickThis was good but was too long; both narratives felt too drawn out but the unusual format was intriguing. It was heartbreaking to consider the stories of women and girls forced into plural marriages and the effect it had on the children (and surplus boys) as well. Both timelines were interesting but I felt that the story of Jordan and his mother could have been fleshed out more.
Between a pick and a so-so.
It's a chilly morning for porch reading, but, as always, it's making me happy. Our road trip was fun but there's no place like home! I started this while we were in Moab, as I wanted to read something set in Utah, and I'm still plugging along.
pickAn informative and emotional history of one of my favorite indie bookstore: The King‘s English in Salt Lake City, Utah.
I grew up visiting this store, and it was a true delight to learn how it came to be and how it operates. I really appreciated reading of the difficulties they‘ve dealt with. And many big name authors have visited! Also many, many book lists to peruse and take notes on! 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
