When Hazel Johnson and Mari McCray met at church bingo in 1963, it was love at first sight. Forced apart by their families and society, Hazel and Mari both married young men and had families. Decades later, now in their mid-'60s, Hazel and Mari reunite again at a church bingo hall. Realizing their love for each other is still alive, what these grandmothers do next takes absolute strength and courage. From TEE FRANKLIN (NAILBITER's "THE OUTFIT," Love is Love) and JENN ST-ONGE (Jem & the Misfits), BINGO LOVE is a touching story of love, family, and resiliency that spans over 60 years.

This story is beautiful, it is the sapphic, second chance romance you didn't know you needed. About the power of love and loss and the pressures of society.

I needed a palette cleanser after my last read so I turned to this sweet little graphic romance. Mari and Hazel are separated in their youth but reunited 50 years later - the art was so lovely but the story moved a little too quickly in places for my taste. Another 10 pages would have really helped with that.

I never know whether to count books I finish on the 1st in that month or the prior one. 🤔 So I guess The Passenger, a surprise hit, squeaks in here. Six bingos and one of my best print months ever! Louise Erdrich was a hit and so was Kent Haruf. Can‘t wait to read more from both! #BookspinBingo

Cinfhen Fabulous!!!! 2y
squirrelbrain Yay - a great month! (I always count a book in the month that I finish it) 2y

Hooked_on_books Wow, you liked the Passenger, huh? Well that‘s good! I liked parts of it but overall wasn‘t a fan. But I really liked Stella Maris quite a bit. I‘ll be interested to see what you think if you tackle that one. 2y
Megabooks @Hooked_on_books it took me 200 pages to get into it, but once it did click, I very much enjoyed it. I‘m planning on reading SM this month. 2y

#12BooksOf2022 @Andrew65

My favorite book of June was this graphic novel about two ladies who get a second chance at love.

Honorable mentions to The Kite Runner graphic novel. Very good story, but again, I just can't say that human suffering is my favorite.

Andrew65 Looks a fun read. 2y
