Today's reading material for my 4th (and final!) chemo treatment.

I bought this personalized and signed copy today from the author himself, who happens to be a fellow English teacher and my colleague down the hall at school. I'm really looking forward to reading this!

If you like Jane Austen-inspired books, this one is great. It's the story of the Bennets' servants at Longbourn, the ones in the background of Pride & Prejudice. Here, their stories are told. #Pemberlittens

Another great Simone St. James mystery!! #SundayBuddyRead I had to read ahead of schedule because my library will only loan out this download for 2 weeks since it's new/popular... not sorry I *had* to read the entire book so quickly! 😂 I didn't want to put it down!

#BookReport
It was a really busy week with school starting back, so I only read a little of the same two books I read last week.

📚 Longbourn- reading a chapter a day with #Pemberlittens
📚 The Book of Cold Cases- I love Simone St. James!! #SundayBuddyRead

July Reading Bracket

Written in epistolary, this is the story of the island of Nollop, where Nevin Nollop came up with the well-known sentence "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." The sentence is memorialized on a statue of Nollop, but as the letters start falling off the placard, the island officials ban them from use.

Chemo #3 reading material- an interesting book: so far, the letters "z" and "q" have been banned on the island of Nollop, because those letters fell off a memorial statue that said "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."
Thanks @AmyG for sending this to me! @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks, you can't see it, but I take the pink blanket you gave me to every chemo appointment, and it is so cozy & comfy and & warm in the cold infusion room! ?

#BookSpinBingo update

I am so glad I joined the #LiteraryCrew in reading this book this month! Before I read this, I didn't know who the Grimké sisters were, nor that they were the first well-known female abolitionists and women's rights advocates. Sue Monk Kidd has such a way with words and tells a powerful and compelling story.

#JulyJam #BlueberryDay I absolutely HAVE to read this book now!!
@Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Yes! I love this!! 😄

📚 They are currently organized alphabetically by title, but I've previously organized them by color, by read/unread, and alphabetically by author.
📚 All over the house, but mostly in what used to be the guest room but has been taken over by books so is now the book room.
📚 I mostly buy physical books, it doesn't really matter to me whether they're hardcover or paperback.

Chemo treatment #2 reading. I really like this book so far, especially the three different timelines.

A little reading and relaxation this morning. This Peach Tranquility tea is so good! #TeaAndABook

Although much of the story seemed fairly far- fetched, the connections were all explained in the end and then it all made sense. It was an enjoyable read.

#JulyJam #CrownDay I really liked this book, about when Victoria was crowned the Queen.
@Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I put this one on my TBR stack solely based on the delicious-looking coconut cake on the cover! I enjoyed this somewhat-predictable rom-com about a relationship gone wrong, a bad restaurant review, and an unexpected friendship that turns to love.

My #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin picks for July!

I've been out of town, so I'm just getting a chance to post my July #BookSpin & #DoubleSpin list.

There was so much I loved about this book! Four independent women who didn't necessarily understand their strength until they became friends and worked together to try to solve the crimes in their usually quiet town.

Another #BookSpinBingo square completed!

#BookMoods #Silence One of my favorite St. James books!
@Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Another #BookSpinBingo square!
@TheAromaofBooks

When the brother of one of the ghosts who resides at Alison Kerby's haunted guesthouse shows up, Alison finds herself involved in investigating two murders, as well as additional crimes possibly involving several members of the same family.

This was my least favorite book in this series, I think because there was just a lot going on in the storyline, and it seemed to be much slower-paced than the previous books.
