Starting this one...

I used to teach this poem every year in my Spanish classes. One of my fav poems, poets and a great story.

@BkClubCare

This book is perfect.

I love this title! (I hear the book is good, too!!)

After one bail and another meh, I‘m excited to start this. I loved the first one!

I‘m torn on this one. I have loved all her other work. Really want to love it but. Eh.

I LOVED the Night Circus but I could not get into this story At. All. The audio was well done but I just couldn‘t. Maybe I‘ll try again with a print edition???!!!

This novella is set directly after the resolution of the first in the series. I read it quickly but it is just as delightful as the first novel. I hear good things about the audio, too...the same actors reprising their roles from the first audio-which was spectacular. #queerlit #queerYA

After 2.5 months, I ought to be able to count this more than once in my GR Reading Challenge. (Note to self: no more omnibus editions...even if they are $2.99).

There is a superb interview with the author in The Paris Review. https://www.theparisreview.org/blog/2019/06/05/survival-as-a-creative-force-an-i...

Jason Reynolds says it‘s amazing. As does NYT and many others. One reviewer said it‘s “permanently stunning”. I‘m def gonna check this one out when it drops tomorrow!! Learn more at www.oceanvuong.com

The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms was almost as good as The Broken Earth Trilogy, maybe a little easier to read, in some ways maybe a little more accessible or “fun”? I put off reading it for so long because I was afraid to be disappointed. NO WORRIES. It‘s an amazing story. I‘m not sorry to say N.K. Jemisin is my absolutely favorite author. Also, I‘m liking the new Kindle option to sort by “read” or “unread”.

Just started...brilliant work but way different than triple-Hugo-winning The Broken Earth trilogy.

Y‘all. This is a beautiful letter to humanity. But in three days I will get to hear this man talk about his work!!! Live. In person. OMG i cant wait I can‘t breathe I can‘t wait. #jasonfangirl PS if you haven‘t read Jason Reynolds you need to. Right now. Now. Not kidding.

Epic reread of one of my favs from back in the day. This time by audio. I commute long distances to work and I have found that when I drive, I really love adventure stories.

While not as good as the first one, still enjoyable. And great historical info included by author at the end.

This is absolutely charming and grabs you in and won‘t let you go!! I‘m not as fond of the narrator in audiobook but it‘s still a fabulous story!

I‘m not crying. You‘re crying.

I‘ve just started a cross-country trip on Amtrak. I‘m so excited!!! Although I‘m glad we made it out of Chicago!! I read this book in preparation. It‘s a pretty good general overview.

This just keeps getting better and better!!

OMG the author followed me back on Twitter!!

Ridiculous amounts of snow today! And it‘s still falling! Getting ready to hunker down under a fuzzy blanket and read. Any great snow day recommendations???! As a kid in upstate New York snow belt this was one of my favorites! @Librarianaut @glitterkitty459 @BkClubCare

1. The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss 2. The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett. 3. Romance novels, including favorites I‘ve read before. They are comforting in their formulaic plot with a guaranteed happy ending. @sebrittain

Audio edition. It‘s just okay. Kind of slow. Too far to give up. Just two hours left!! Maybe there will be a payoff??

Deal alert! “There‘s more imagination on a page of Nnedi Okorafor‘s work than in whole volumes of ordinary fantasy epics” (Ursula K. Le Guin)

Charming. So well done!

Mt TBR. Digital style

Words. Lots and lots of words. More words than story so far. I‘ve never read Hardy, is he always like this?

I‘ve been waiting and waiting. I‘m holding my breath that this one is as powerful as Strange The Dreamer.

1. Horror 2. Biographies 3. True crime #sundayfunday @sebrittain

Well-written, accessible for teens, exploration of self, dealing with loss, with subtext of gender identity, lbgtq.

This wonderful book is now a movie. World premiere at the Toronto Film Fest! Can‘t wait. #readthebookfirst #lbgtqdramas

This is maybe the best part of the whole book.

Great first-person accounts.

Author of Brown Girl Dreaming wrote this Amazon sale book. Y‘all. This woman packs a punch with her words.

It‘s lovely.

As an older adult, I‘ve listened to audio, read and reread The Name of the Wind (and the sequel) again and again. Can‘t wait for book three. I hope it is published in my lifetime. 😹🙀 #agameoffavorites @WhiskeyMistress @ErinSueG

A Room of One‘s Own, combined with The Awakening by Kate Chopin were transformative for me as a young adult. #agameoffavorites @WhiskeyMistress @ErinSueG

As an young adult, Kate Chopin‘s The Awakening was one that I kept coming back to. #agameoffavorites @WhiskeyMistress @ErinSueG

If I think about my all-time fav books, I have different ones for different phases of my life. This one, my original cover pictured here, bridges the gap between adolescence and young-adulthood. Still a treasure that I‘ve read too many times to count. #agameoffavorites @WhiskeyMistress @ErinSueG

My favorite #localauthor for #agameoffavorites is Sarah Addison Allen. I love her light blend of atmosphere, interesting characters, #romantsy, and magic. She‘s not from my town, but from one of my favorite places, Asheville, NC. @WhiskeyMistress @ErinSueG

This one by author Sarina Bowen (recommended by @EloisaJames ) is FREE today on Amazon!!! @bookandcat @WhiskeyMistress @ErinSueG #romantsy #agameoffavorites

“Ten cats is too many”...🙀😹😸😺

Current deal at Amazon. I haven‘t yet read it but it seems interesting...I wish I‘d had a book like this when I was a teenager, to help figure out how to deal with big disappointments.

Thanks for the info @swishandflick This is a great read. Go get it!!

From the Novella “In Pursuit of...”, which is same author but not in the database.

“John was beginning to suspect that Latham was something of a puppy—earnest, exuberant, and utterly devoid of house-training. John sighed.”
