I can see why many have loved this read but it just wasn‘t for me. I didn‘t get fully invested nor swept away and once I read a few meh reviews, I couldn‘t unread those impressions but only then found I was in agreement. On to the next read! #June2025 Book53

BkClubCare Also, I need to prune the clematis 🤔 4h

Going on a road trip and need an audio! Since I have a “celebrity memoir” category to fill for #AsheCoNCReadingChallenge, will listen to this one. #LibbyAudio oh! It also fits the Alliteration category for #WiaN2025! And 8% in, she mentions apple pie. #PieinLiterature #iLovePie

BkClubCare Also, quite sad that _ALL_ the LGTBQA+ audiobook titles I searched for in my library‘s catalog were NOT FOUND. A LOT. (Or required being put on hold, but still not many, like ONE (Elton John.) (edited) 3h

Audiobooked and skipped a few chapters; needed a “female leader” for the #AsheCoNCReadingChallenge. #June2025 Book52

ChaoticMissAdventures I hate when people say this but I found her lack of humility throughout this book a bit jarring. I felt throughout she was saying never in her career has she made any mistakes. It is a biography and she can portray herself however she wants but I didn't think it was done with much self reflection. 3d
BkClubCare @ChaoticMissAdventures - I actually was cognizant of your thoughts on this as I listened. I could agree and yet I also didn‘t get an impression that she was over boastful. And she is right about the current regime wanting to wreck tradition. 3d
BkClubCare @ChaoticMissAdventures - reading your comment again: “I hate when people say this” What do people say? Do you mean being critical of women being TOO humble or NOT ENOUGH but men don‘t get the same criticism? 3d
See All 6 Comments
ChaoticMissAdventures @BkClubCare yes, totally, I hate to hear or say that women should be humble, men never get that criticism. I think in general women need to be more loud and proud about their work, but I also think we should own our mistakes. I am glad to hear you don't really agree. I might need to read some of it again. 3d
BkClubCare @ChaoticMissAdventures - well, just know… I am not a close follower of her at all. I am newer or lapsed follower of congresspeople in specific. So I really came to this wondering why, for example, my father hates-her-with-a-passion. So I was inclined to like her version of things , ifyouknowwhatImean 😏 3d
ChaoticMissAdventures @BkClubCare ha! Yes the more certain people hate some politicians the more I like them. My big complaint with her is she needs to pass the torch fully. But that is a bigger general political issue. 3d

Cannot wait to discuss this! #CampLitsy2025
#June2025 Book51 (and yes, the plant is called Mouse Barley (aka Foxtail) which the bane of dog paws 🐾 everywhere and it is horrifically prolific this year in my neighborhood!)

BkClubCare Notes to self: really impressed with the writing, the style, the sentence structure and vocabulary. It felt like either 2 versions of a story, or unreliable narrator, or delusions vs exploring alternate realities, or two different stories!! But wowza. Never bored (tho I could imagine a few of my reader friends HATING it 😂) 3d
Ruthiella My backyard is full of foxtails. It‘s a never ending battle in the summer and the weeds usually win. We‘ve been to the vet already once to get Penny‘s ears checked. 3d

ChaoticMissAdventures @BkClubCare I meant curse! Silly autocorrect. I don't have dogs but I walk my bff's often and learned about them when she got the dog. Awful things! I just found the dream like quality of Audition to feel (to me) similar to cannot wait to discuss! 3d

Educated: A Memoir | Tara Westover
post image

A friend recovering from surgery asked me to pick up some audiobooks from the library - my choice! I have read Educated and the Doerr (no idea if she has) - does anyone want to chime in support for the other two? I have Born a Crime on hold - which is my favorite audio of all time that I recommend. Photo to help me remember! (Otherwise, slim pickings.

ChaoticMissAdventures I adore Ashley C Ford. Her memoir is a bit tough topic wise but really important stuff and her writing is gorgeous. I have heard she is working on a spin off documentary on it from Netflix with other women who grew up similarly (father in prison, mom not always good, growing up Black in America) 5d
BkClubCare @ChaoticMissAdventures - Thank you 😊 I believe I followed her way back when I was on Twitter. So her name caught my eye. Otherwise, the library has a bunch of pop lit of the kind that I steer clear. 5d
ErikasMindfulShelf I loved Of Women and Salt 5d

OooOOOooo! I like this cover more than the one on the hardcover I read (US, library) Anyway, I am giving this a “Pick with reservations” and truly, this is a case of “Book, it‘s not you, it‘s me”. I just couldn‘t overcome the reluctance I felt, the chore it seemed to get this thing read!! I don‘t have time for this, too many books coming at me fast and fury with deadlines. I made it to page 200 before I skipped to the last 4 chapters ⬇️

BkClubCare So I “got” the story, I enjoyed the build, I was disappointed that Zelu‘s family wasn‘t more supportive, and I wish the best for the Humes… #May2025 Book48 2w

Honestly, this one is tough. I don‘t think I want to be as smart/clever as this one might require. Did I read every word on every page? No, I did not. Am I glad I attempted? Sure. 😐 If you want to be a Percival Everett completist, I recommend a good trial looksee at the format or trap yourself on a beach with no other books, maybe. 😂 It is absurdist philosophy or true brilliance, if you dare trust this poor simpleton‘s opinion. It is amusing…
