My pick for #FictionalTraveler for May.

review

Pickpick

Definitely not my favorite Picoult. I was wavering between pick and so-so. What I like about most of Picoult‘s books is that they make me think about opposing viewpoints and often question multiple characters and their actions. This did not do that.
Overall, a low pick for me.

I adore Jenny Colgan books. The setting & characters in Mure are just fantastic. Wonderfully written & perfectly imperfect & real.

This was a rolled #Roll100 book for me this month & it‘s also on my #readyourebooks list.

With this completed read I also completed my April #BookSpinBingo board. 🤓

#Two4Tuesday @TheSpineView

1. Yes. I feel better knowing I have cash for instances where it‘s cash only, the tech is down and other reasons.

2. There‘s a very wealthy character in the tagged book. His wealth affects him in the first two books in ways different than this one. Love affects him more.

TheSpineView Your answer to #1 reminded me when Helena came through and the cell towers were down and no internet for several days. You had to pay cash everywhere, including the grocery store. 9h

The second book of the three McBride cousins and still ties to Eternity Springs. Tucker is another book in the Eternity Springs series that I just love. The group in Texas is great but I really love the Colorado backdrop more.
