Starting this for May #BookedInTime biblical fiction
Since it's 5 novellas I'm not sure if I'm going to read it straight through or break it up with some other reading 🤷🏻♀️
so-soI liked the 80s nostalgia of Westchester County, where I grew up. As for the story itself, eh, it was alright and not as compelling as I thought it would be. I hate going into books with high expectations 😕

Thanks for the tag @TieDyeDude
📖 I'm not a big mystery reader, but when a giant dome appears over a town people want to know where the hell it came from.

Didn't do so great on the coming of age stories 🤦🏻♀️
But, I have to admit, there was a good portion of titles I never even heard of.

There are similar sized stacks of books that I already own, so lots of sharing for the Little Free Libraries around town!!!

I need a palette cleanser read; and I haven't read Lori Foster in yearssssss, so 📖
pickA worthy read for Van Halen fans.
And a funny little cosmic book/life story: I saw VH in March 1984. The following month I met and started going out with my boyfriend and we realized we both saw VH the same night. As of yesterday, we're together 40 years! Just strange that I decided to read this book now 💫

Time for a little sex, drugs, and rock n' roll after all that corporate drudgery of my last read 🤘🏼
pickHaving read this so shortly after Our Kids: The America Dream in Crisis was a #Powerful combination. If you aren't screwed by the opportunity gap in childhood, you're pretty likely to be screwed by the bottom-line mentality of the corporate world.
