1️⃣ Hah! Close—I did them this weekend because procrastination is my name. 🤦🏻♀️
2️⃣ Folklore 🌺
If you want to join in, consider yourself tagged. 🤗
This one, stories set in Hawaii, is my pick for #FictionalTraveler April #Island & it‘s one of my April #Roll100 picks (#24 Any stories or essays ).
It‘s good incentive since it‘s been in my TBR since I bought a signed copy from a local book store when it was released.
The DNFs on Blind Date books is 2 for 2.
DNFing this one because I'm not a fan of short stories, and literary fiction tries my patience; the two together are nothing but a recipe for shit reading for me.

Starting my second "Blind Date" book and hoping for better luck with this one ????
Well, that‘s an “ugh, my rival” glare if I‘ve ever seen one! #catsanddogs #dogsoflitsy #readathon #hauntedshelf #flerken
Not sure how I felt about this book. I think I missed the message.

I find this to be a very #StunningCover with its corpse flower. I bought it last year partially because of the beautiful cover & still need to read it.
If you‘re looking for a terrific short story collection about a marginalized group of people with a little magical realism and/or dystopia mixed in to some stories, this is the one you‘ve been looking for. It‘s so good! I liked each an every story and some of them made me “oh!” out loud.

For today‘s #DebutByIndigenousAuthor prompt, I‘m going with this debut collection of stories written by an author who is “Japanese and Native Hawaiian with deep Moloka‘i roots” according to Honolulu Magazine.
It‘s being published on 8/29 & I pre-ordered it last month through my local indie bookstore in part because I love the cover & they were offering a limited supply of the corpse flower enamel pins with pre-orders. 🤷🏻♀️
