Proper English

I‘m still firmly in grumpy bastard mode, alas. I keep drifting away from books I should like and I can‘t seem to concentrate on TV. Blah.

Despite this, I‘ve settled in with PROPER ENGLISH and I‘m kinda hoping a plan for tonight either falls through or takes 30 minutes tops so I can binge read the last 33%.

Also, this is ANOTHER book without the cover inside the file. Dammit, book formatters.

I'm listening to (and very much enjoying) my #BookClub read at the moment! And here's my physical #TBR along with my #Readathon provisions! I only have a couple hours on the clock so far, but I've got the "stay home" part of the endeavor down pat! And I see some #AudiobookAndClean in my near future! How are my fellow 'thoners getting along?

CareBear Dark chocolate Oreos?! How have I been missing this??? 5y

KatieDid927 @CareBear I second this. 5y

PaperbackPrincess19 What‘s the Heartstoppers been seeing it around a lot 5y

the.bookish.valkyrie @Paperback.princess19 It's a LGBTQ+ graphic novel series by a British YA author. It follows two high school boys in England who meet, become friends and fall in love. It's super sweet and cute and makes me cry, but in a good way! 5y

The Secrets We Kept

Nessavamusic @Cinfhen though not a perfect book, I did enjoy it. Sort of CIA meets Madmen 5y

Cinfhen That sounds like a pretty satisfying mashup š 5y

This was a lovely little romance/mystery. It was my first K.J. Charles book and I definitely want to continue reading this series. #lgbt+read #romantsy

CarolynM I like KJ Charles's books a lot. 5y

Some of these I probably already pictured when I bought some with Christmas money, but my #1 wish this year was to get physical copies of K.J. Charles' books. My wife has obliged!

Pictured also: Librarian Hedgehog, who is deliberating splitting by secondary genre or keeping them altogether in my romance section. Sshh... He's thinking.

Mild pick. Loved the character interactions, and especially the on-page depiction of female support systems. Plot/romance is set at a cracking pace that was just too fast for me (I like me my slow burns), but this book was only a couple hundred pages so nobody had the chance to slow down.

Probably not a book I'll reread, but definitely an author I'll read again.
