This was a reread for me, and I appreciated the story more this time. I also really enjoyed the audio narration.

💗💚💛🧡💗💚💛🧡 Loved everything about this book right down to the afterward/author's note at the very end. She wanted her readers to cry, and I can 100% say she was successful when it came to this reader - though mostly it was exactly during this portion of the #audiobook.😝😢💙

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is another wonderful historical fiction story by Bradley set during WWII. Miri is a Jewish girl living in Paris who ends up hiding in a convent school in the French countryside. While there she learns more about French history and becomes even more involved in aspects of the war.

* I received an audio version of this book through the Libro.fm Educator #ALC program.
Audio duration: 8 hours 23 minutes

Well-performed, this debut #audiobook makes for a compelling listen. Told in past and present, Louise has had a complicated history with the elite school she briefly attended. She only went there with her own agenda, and though she‘s determined to get justice and expose secrets, her own feelings start to intrude. The modern storyline involving the school feels a bit weaker than the past one but the plot holds some real surprises too!

Jay is seriously passionate about this topic and it‘s clear why. I think some people would feel he‘s too emotional about this, but I think it works for him. I watched the documentary he talked about and it‘s stunning how callous some of these doctors are. “Oh, you‘ve been traumatised by this medically unnecessary procedure? Get over it.” 🙄

A Book of Pagan Prayer | Ceisiwr Serith

I‘ve been trying to process this one for ages now. The first part is a good conversation starter. The second half is such a patchwork of pre-fab prayers it‘s hard to take them as genuine. Maybe if this had been done as a collaboration between the author and other people on the paths for these prayers it might seem more genuine and therefore be more helpful. By the end, my eyes were sort of crossed and I was just happy it was over.

GingerAntics I still feel “I‘ll pray for you” as a passive aggressive move or a way to absolve oneself of doing nothing at best and blaming others for things out of their control at worst has ruined open, genuine prayer for everyone. 3d

It‘s no longer an angry plea shouted to the void. Right here, on this stage, in front of eighty thousand people, it‘s becoming something else.
This is our new vow.
