Help me pick books for 2024! I need all the recommendations (and hopefully I already own a few of them, lol)!

Let me know book title, author and which board to put it on.

#Book #recommendations #BookRecommendations #Thrillers #Romance #HistoricalRomance #MustReads #Random

shortsarahrose My favorite read of the year. I would classify it as horror, but it could probably go on your thriller board 11mo
KateReadsYA Historical Romance 11mo
BkClubCare My favorite of 2023 is tagged here: I consider it upbeat but not light “found family” so, random? 11mo
AsYouWish @shortsarahrose @KateReadsYA @BkClubCare 💙💙💙 Thank You for the recommendations - all have been added to the lists!!! 11mo

A stack of books headed out to their new owners today! All went media mail on me, so it‘ll probably be a week or so before they arrive.

Kerrbearlib My cousin used to work at Bookstacks! Are you a Mainer, too? 1y
Soubhiville @Kerrbearlib oh, no. I just typed “books” into the search and chose something from the list. I did grow up in Vermont and spent a lot of summer vacations in Maine, and I do have family there. 🙂 1y

Here is a stack of eight books all set during the Second World War. Not sure which one I‘ll start with. What are you choosing from?

Cuilin @jenniferw88 sounds exciting! 1y
Cuilin @Bookwormjillk looks good 1y
ChaoticMissAdventures I am going to finally get to my July Bookspin - a novel set around Japan's invasion of Singapore and the lives of 3 people left after an attack on a small Singaporean village 1y
sblbooks One hundred Saturdays looks really good. 1y
Cuilin @ChaoticMissAdventures that looks like a difficult yet interesting read. 1y
AnnR @Cuilin, Looks like a good variety of books. My choices are varied, based on what I have sitting on my kindle. If one book isn't interesting enough, I'll move onto the next one on my list: Without a Country, Daughters of the Night Sky, The Shell Seekers and 1y
Cuilin @sblbooks From the holocaust Museum in DC, I stacked the Opera Sisters and 1y
Cuilin @Ann_Reads the Ragged Edge looks really good. I‘ve never read the Shell Seekers but it looks like something I‘d enjoy. 1y
Mollyanna I think I‘ve decided to go with the latest Electra McDonell book 1y
Cuilin @Mollyanna oh that looks good. 1y
Mollyanna It‘s a fun series. 1y
TheBookgeekFrau I have two sitting on my TBR shelf that I'm going to read -- The Last Bookshop in London and Faster. 1y
AllDebooks Great selection of books to choose from, I'm going with Slaughterhouse Five and 1y
julieclair @Ann_Reads @Cuilin I read The Shell Seekers years ago and really enjoyed it. 👍 1y
julieclair I have been trying to decide between When Books Went to War and Escape from Paris. But now that I see The Winter Garden in your stack, I think I'll throw that into the mix, too. It has been sitting on my shelf for years. 1y
Cuilin @TheBookgeekFrau the last bookshop looks attractive 1y
Cuilin @julieclair all are compelling contenders 1y
Cuilin @AllDebooks I‘m really intrigued by the Nine 🤔 1y
Cuilin @rubyslippersreads I‘m curious about that. Child evacuation stories interest me. One of my favorites is 1y
tdrosebud I have no idea what I might read, I have a lot on my shelves though, so it will be nice to knock something off of my TBR 1y
AnnR @Cuilin I think The Shell Seekers starts out during WWII but then the story continues on into more contemporary time periods. @julieclair do you recall how much of the story is set during WWII? I'm wondering if it is just a couple of chapters. 1y
Cuilin Same 👍 1y
Cuilin @Ann_Reads @julieclair A Goodreads reviewer said every time they read the Shell Seekers it makes them want to pack up, move to Cornwall, bake bread, and tend a flower garden. Sounds delightful. I have no idea how much of it is set during WW2 1y
AnnR Cuilin, Well that sounds delightful, at least based on the review. :-) 1y
dabbe Our #BookedinTime spreadsheet is updated! Let me know if I missed any from above.

If you want to let me know your scores for any past books (Restoration Period/Ancient Rome) tag me and let me know (@dabbe). You can tell me if it's a pick/so-so/dnf/bail and give me a score from 0-5. I'll happily record them on our spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sLpOtIgy6SwJkyU0wwno2MN4YUbe0ldjPwSusW3g...

sblbooks @dabbe Oranges for Christmas was not restoration period. That one can be removed. I made one post for two different books, sorry for the confusion. The Great Fire of London was a three-star read. 1y
dabbe @sblbooks Got it! Thanks. 🤗 1y
Cuilin @dabbe thanks it‘s looking good 👍 1y
willaful I'd like to have another try at The Enigma Game, which I think I started and didn't finish. I really loved Code Name Verity and Black Dove, White Raven. If this doesn't work out again. she has another WWII book called Stateless. 1y
julieclair @Ann_Reads @Cuillin I don't remember how much of the book was set during WWII. It has been a number of years since I read it. I will say, I don't really remember it as a "war" book. 1y
Cuilin @willaful Enigma game looks amazing. 1y
AnnR Thank you, @julieclair. It is a fairly long book so I'll probably read it another time. 1y
rubyslippersreads @Cuilin I got hooked on child evacuation stories as a kid, when I read my mom‘s old BOTM copy of 1y
Cuilin @rubyslippersreads sounds delightful, I just stacked it. 1y
DebinHawaii I think I am going with this one. It‘s set in Hawaii & I have read a couple of her other WWII novels & enjoyed them. 1y
DebinHawaii Or I may go with this other book from the same author mentioned above that I have stacked: 1y
Cuilin @DebinHawaii I‘d heard of Radar Girls both look good. 1y

@Bklover tagged me! So,
1.yeah, I have bookshelves! This was my 50th birthday gift from the hubs! Our front room is the library and there are also two arm chairs and a round armchair in the room.
2. My books are somewhat organized. Classics on the left. Stephen King books plus all of my Book Con books in the second section. The last two are all of the books I need to read 🤣

My current library loans, with as many again on hold. I live in terror of them all coming in at once. 😅
Also, I'm close to the max number of renewals on some of these, whereas others are new and popular and likely to be quickly requested by others. A conundrum. 😆

#BookNerdProblems

marleed I feel this beautiful stress! And look you, proving the value in public libraries! …And my game since tax dollars support libraries - I mentally subtract $15 (new book) $10 (old book) from my own tax bill with each book I borrow! In years I owe taxes, it really does help my head make peace with that bill. 2y
squirrelbrain The struggle is real! 😬 2y
Hooked_on_books I thought The Memory of Animals wasn‘t out until June. Or maybe that‘s just here. Awesome stack regardless. 2y

Has anyone else seen this quiz? 1000 Books You May Have Actually Read.

https://www.listchallenges.com/1000-books-you-may-have-actually-read?score=163&f...

My score was 163/1000 because I don't read much popular fiction. I would have been totally SOOL without Shakespeare and the classics!!

JamieArc I just did this today! I got 245, largely due to being an English major. My expensive degree may not have resulted in a job, but it helps with lists like these and Jeopardy 😂 5y
LauraJ 328. I‘m never going to be a Nicholas Sparks reader, but there are a lot of these on my tbr. 5y
ImperfectCJ Fun list! I got 366, thanks in part to the Stephen King obsession of my youth. And lots of read-alouds with my kids. 5y
