I don't know Fitzgerald well enough to know if this is a retelling or just inspired by Tender Is the Night. But it's very feminist and I liked it.

This book is so creepy. A 7yo non-verbal child basically spends this entire book trying to kill her mother so she can save daddy while the mother tries to deal with that and her own issues. It's fantastic.

this is so old it would be embarrassing if I had any sense

This author is so freaking fluffy. And I'm here for it. I loved all of the Twilight mocking.

Totally fangirling rn.

#ChloeGongReadAlong @TheBookHippie

So creepy. I loved it.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This has an appealing cover. The book, however, did not blow me away. A woman, an empath, "builds" a laundry to erase emotional stains.

I've been more interested in Middle Eastern lit for quite a while now. This one is set in Iran in the 1950s. Highly recommend.

I didn't understand why this was so hard to find out in the wild. There were no digital copies. My bestie needed it for her book club. Somehow I ended up with 2 of them. So I guess I lost this round of chicken and actually read it. I approve. Read it. If you can find a copy.

This should come with a warning label. May cause eye leakage. Refrain from using in public spaces.

#AuthorAMonth @Soubhiville

This one was super interesting. It is about bias in AI. How it happened and why it matters. I saw the author at the MA Women's Conference.

This is an entertaining story and a decent listen but it didn't set mt world on fire.

This is twisty and entertaining but also tense and anxiety inducing. I would definitely read another book by this author.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I went fantasy + gorgeous cover. So on brand.

These are very cute and fun. I only have one left 😔

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

My book club picked this for September and it's fantastic. It's basically a post apocalyptic climate disaster set in Florida. Definitely recommend.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I love this author. This is not my favorite of her books, however.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

Nerd alert at the library

This is currently my second favorite book of 2024. Extra points for the Rhode Island jokes. Seriously. Read this book.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

Meant to post this earlier.... This went commuting today.

Acquired a new treasure. This store in Newburyport MA isn't in the database.

This is more like a collection of nonfiction stories as opposed to a memoir. Some were more interesting than others.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This was interesting. It's a modern take on native storytelling. The setting is Sonoma County and the Bay Area mostly.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This is basically a history of women's health as it was shaped by male doctors and other mostly male influences. Super interesting.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This just wasn't my fav. But the cover caught my attention and that's how I pick books, especially new to me authors, so 🤷

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I love when someone finds something unusual and picks it for book club. I have no idea how this book was under everyone's radar but it was fantastic.

#SundayBuddyRead @TheBookHippie

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I loved this. Everything about it. Especially this cover. And it went to the beach, so, sorry not sorry if you borrow it and end up with extra sand in your life.

If you're looking for fluffy, cute romance, highly recommend.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I meant to read the print version of this with a couple of audiobook chapters to speed me along, but I listened to nearly the entire 21+ hour audiobook. It's good. It met expectations. It's also very long but that's absolutely on brand for this author.

I loved this. I love Margaret Atwood.

This wasn't nearly as exciting as the first one but still giving it a pick.

A woman gets a job at a lending library in Nottingham right as the war is beginning. There are a lot of books in this general trope and I think this one is worth reading.

This book came to Boston today. 💛🐘

Beach read!

This is pretty twisty. You go in thinking you know what's going on. But you definitely do not.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

Erdrich is an excellent storyteller. I received this in an AuthorAMonth package and it has been lingering on my TBR shelf half read for over a year. But the writing is superb.

It's possible I had no idea this photo was so blurry.

#DoubleSpin @TheAromaofBooks

#ChloeGongReadAlong @TheBookHippie
When are we reading this one? This is super tempting. Even though it's sort of late.

These are a cute subset of the witch storyline. Tiffany is a fierce YA protagonist.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I definitely should have reread the first book. Because it has been a long time. But that didn't really diminish my enjoyment of this second book. I love this author. He's a must read for me. There are very few men on my must read list.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

These are ridiculous but super fun. This is the 3rd book and I would like more please.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

These are super fun. In this, Calamity Jane and her cohort are werewolf hunters. The audiobook is really well done and I love all of the Annie Get Your Gun references.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I would compare this to The Lottery mixed with the movie The Village. I liked it but it got pretty weird.

I devoured this in a day. The day after I read the first book. I want more books like this.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

Bears are amazing. I love them all. This was very interesting.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I read this in a day. Less than. After waiting on hold for weeks. This author can be very funny. This one has a baby goat. In pajamas.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

This was a decent take on fairy tales. Like real ones, not the fluffy kind. My book club has pointed out several times that it's a bit gloomy.

#BookSpinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

I like what the author did with this. She turns the male perspective on its head and suddenly Medusa is a victim in this story.

I must have forgotten to take a proper pic of this book but there it is in a library stack. Already returned this.
