#52booksin52weeks

❄️ I set a book goal of 150 and have finished 223 so far. And I am one book away from completing #52Booksin52Weeks.
❄️❄️ 2 but they were both rereads. A Christmas Carol and Christmas Days
❄️❄️❄️ 2024 is the year of Follett‘s Knightbridge series. I‘m considering starting at the beginning.

Want to play @PageShifter @Arvena @AmyG

Next up in #MissionReadAllTheLibraryBooks
All these three are due back shortly and can't be renewed 😬 I also want to read the play Our Town before reading Tom Lake.
I might just return Razor Blade Tears unread for now, as I need a revenge story for next year's #52BooksIn52Weeks challenge.

#RememberingJenny

This is a very sad book about a mother and her adult sons who come together a year after the father died. Their shared past is filled with lies and secrets, with misunderstandings and things unspoken.
He has died a year earlier but the invisible father still seems the only one to bring them back together.

This book was just what I needed: to escape in Eva‘s and Shane‘s world. I rooted for them, I hurt when they did. I loved the dialogues, the flirting, I loved Audre and Cece.
I didn‘t think it especially steamy or sexy but I wasn‘t looking for that. I wanted romance and that‘s what I got. I look forward to discuss it during our #SummerHeat weekend 17-19 June!

Tim Butcher travels through the #DemocraticRepublicCongo (DRC). Torn by war, violence, poverty and injustice yet the Congo is mostly a country that the world seems to have forgotten about. I learned so much about politics, geography, human rights etc. Most notable is that the country is not an undeveloped country, rather an undeveloping country ⬇️

One of my African favourites so far for. These are the memoirs of NYT journalist Helene Cooper, who grows up in #Liberia. When the country falls apart after the coup of 1980, she and her family flee to the US. Her less privileged half sister Eunice stays in a country that for years suffers under crazy dictators who recruit child soldiers  and drug them to fight for.. well, for whatever. ⬇️⬇️

#ReadingAfrica2022 ??

4 1/2 🌟 because when I started reading it I quickly remembered who the murderer is, as I've watched Suchet's version too many times 😂😂😂
