This biography, written with Diana's help through interviews she secretly recorded with the author, is stunning. Intriguing, beautiful, sad, inspiring, poignant. I'm learning so much about the royal family politics, personal turmoil, and media circus she lived under. #recommend #history

SassyBookworm She was such a wonderful inspirational woman! 6y

Man I love Pearl S. Buck! So good, every book I read. "What is the end of a story? There is no end. Life unfolds into life, and the stream flows on." #listy #booked2018

Reading this book and dying of laughter at the cross section of pokes at marketing and startups. Actually pretty sure at some point, this book might roast everyone. #tech #biz #nonfiction #lol

Never read Julie Garwood, picked this up from the new/popular fiction table at the library. I needed a quick, easy read, mystery/thriller/secret agent novels = perfect. But OH WAIT! THINGS ARE GETTING RACY HERE! This is what happens when I don't carefully read the book jacket or think about the cover image...

shanmcf @Bluegrassyogi I wanted something light... but may have made a huge mistake. #sendhelp 6y

How many books are you in the middle of reading? I have at least 7. Or 8.... Maybe 9. #nerdproblems 🤓

I break them up in categories. Quick reads I finish within a week, slow reads I'll digest over a month or longer, collections/anthologies that I'll skip around but possibly not read entirely (for a long time or maybe ever), referencing re-reads that I continue to think over. Nonfiction for morning, fiction for relaxing in the evening.

A delightful British tale set in the 1920s... About a hilarious web of lies with characters whose paths cross unexpectedly.

shanmcf @Bluegrassyogi I need to lend you this one! 7y
