I went straight from breakfast to the Children‘s Hospital Book Market, where I knocked four things off my wishlist! Alas, nobody donated anything by Charles Stross or Kay Kenyon (my two big book hunt targets at the mo), but I was glad to give the sick kids some money and fill out my personal Skip Beat! library at the same time.
Here and there on the forest floor, now hidden, now revealing themselves, tiny white blossoms lifted up their heads.
Wild orchids.

panRead this recently, was not a big fan of it. I liked the concept, but the mc was really annoying at times.
pickI‘ve started reading Meet the Austins to my 10 yo granddaughter bc this has always been a favorite series, in addition to the Murrys and O‘Keefes of the Wrinkle in Time series. At some point in the chronology there is a mingling of the 2 families, and I hope to work on both series over the next 12-16 mos.

pickByron Graves‘ debut novel is a winner! HS sophomore Tre loves basketball and plays his heart out in honor of his brother Jaxon who died last year. It‘s hard for his mom and dad to “see” Tre when they are still grieving their older son. Tre is a strong protagonist - he is partly based on the Ojibwa author‘s life in Minnesota.

pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (4.5/5)
I fell in love with Rebecca Ross‘ writing last year with “Divine Rivals”, and my recent read of “A River Enchanted” and “A Fire Endless” were no exceptions. “Dreams Lie Beneath” continued this trend, and I really enjoyed the writing, story, characters and world-building. Bonus points for a beautiful book map as well!

“Fast Car“ by Tracy Chapman
“The One I Love“ by REM
“Hallelujah“ by Leonard Cohen
“Stop Draggin' My Heart Around“ by Stevie Nicks & Tom Petty
“Push It“ by Salt-N-Pepa
Listen, math isn't my strong suit.
Also, I was reminded recently (by Rob Harvilla) that “Push It“ had a choreographed dance routine that went with it. I found a tutorial and my mind is BLOWN. In the words of S&P, “Let's Talk About“...a recovered memory!
