January | Sara Gallardo

Great reading month for January! I finished 19 books total & read almost all I set out to. I think weekly plane rides & trying to avoid media upped my reading time. Finished all 3 #Roll100 books, 3 from my #AuldLangSpine list from @JacqMac + #AuthorAMonth #SundayBuddyRead #ChildrensClassicRead2025 #NancyDrewBR #BobWhiteBuddies #FoodandLit #ChloeGongReadalong #ThematicCozies #FictionalTraveler #Naturalitsy #MidWinterSolace #JaneAustenThenAndNow ⬇️

DebinHawaii … & #SeriesLove2025 & also had some library books sneak their way in. I enjoyed most everything I read (although I got a little heavy with Nazis/Fascists books for a month of political horror that was depressing but some lighter books pulled me out). Top 3 Favorites were Bad Cree, Lula Dean‘s Little Library of Banned Books & The Night Guest. (edited) 10h

Librarybelle That is a great reading month! 10h

PuddleJumper That's brilliant! 9h

It‘s February #AuthorAMonth readers. This month we‘ll be celebrating Roxane Gay. What are you planning to read?

I haven‘t gotten to this year‘s Google form yet. I will try to do that by my mid month post so you can start recording what you‘ve read. In the meantime, if you use StoryGraph here‘s the link to the challenge there:

Finding Me: A Memoir | Viola Davis

In light of recent developments, I decided to lean into Black History Month for the month of February. My remaining book club and #authoramonth selections are already poised in that direction. While looking at my TBR list, I remembered something from my year end stats that I forgot to post at the time.

On both Goodreads and StoryGraph, Finding Me was the highest rated of the books I read in 2024. Isn‘t that interesting?

BarbaraTheBibliophage Finding Me is amazing and the author reads the audiobook, which is even better!! 1d

tpixie Here is an eye-opening book White women: everything you already know about your own racism and how to do better

AmyG I just started this for Author-a-Month so my book will be Bad Feminist- Roxane Gay 1d

See All 27 Comments

CBee @AmyG I‘m thinking about TJ Klune but not quite sure yet. Roxane Gay is wonderful! 1d

Meshell1313 Ooh love this one! Perfect time to get into all the TJ Klune books I own! I‘ll go with

House in the Cerulean Sea

CatLass007 TJ Klune it is!

Somewhere Beyond the Sea

OriginalCyn620 I‘ll also go with TJ Kline!

The House in the Cerulean Sea

AmyG @CBee I just finished House on the Cerulean Sea….fabulous. The reader of the audiobook….amazing! 1d

CBee @Meshell1313 @OriginalCyn620 I am seriously jealous that y‘all will be reading that for the first time - it is SO good, one of my favorites! 1d

CBee @CatLass007 have you read the first one?

The House in the Cerulean Sea

CBee @AmyG I thought you‘d read that a while back! Wasn‘t it wonderful? The 2nd one is just as good. 1d

CBee @AmyG I also realized I could read more John Boyne, maybe finally even read Shuggie Bain if I can get in the right mindset!

Shuggie Bain

CBee Guys, you could also do Steven Rowley - the Guncle series! I could do

The Celebrants

CatLass007 Yes, I read the first one and I adored it! I‘ve also read Under the Whispering Door and it‘s marvelous. I am now a huge fan of TJ Klune and intend to actually buy every book that he writes. Or every audiobook I mean. His books are so uplifting and I think they are books that I‘ll want to hear again and again. I haven‘t had this much love for an author in ages. 1d

CBee @CatLass007 I also loved Under the Whispering Door! He‘s one of my favorites as well. I still need to read

In the Lives of Puppets

CatLass007 I need to read them all over and over again! 1d

CatLass007 And Katherine Center. I am not a romance reader, but I don‘t think she writes pure romance novels. I think she writes about real people and real experiences good and bad. So I only own one of her books so far but TJ Klune is going to take precedence. In the meantime, there‘s always Libby. 1d

Ruthiella This has long been on my TBR

I Kissed Shara Wheeler

23h

ChelseaM6010 I‘ll be checking out Ocean Vuong, starting with the tagged book!

Night Sky with Exit Wounds

16h

CBee @CatLass007 I read one of her books a couple of years ago and actually really liked it! And I‘m not a romance reader either. 15h

CBee @Ruthiella 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 15h

CBee @ChelseaM6010 I‘ve heard only good things about Vuong! 15h

Meshell1313 @CatLass007 @OriginalCyn620 ooh we have a mini buddy read! Can‘t wait to dive in and to see what you both think! 13h

Bklover Probably will read Roxana Gay since that is our #authoramonth pick. 7h

julieclair I will be reading either Ayita or Bad Feminist, by Roxane Gay. 4h

CBee @Bklover I‘ve only read Untamed State - excellent book! 3h

CBee @julieclair awesome! I loved her book, Untamed State. 3h

Kitta I read Hunger last year and wow. So good but so hard to read. I‘d recommend it a lot to anyone doing the challenge, however major trigger warnings for rape, eating disorder, and fatphobia.

Hunger: A Memoir of (My) Body

vlwelser I love her. Her book recs are 🔥 in addition to her own books. I have this queued up

Difficult Women

dariazeoli I‘m hoping to get to both Not That Bad (edited) and Opinions (wrote) this month! 2d

Jess Thanks for the StoryGraph link. I just started using that app! I‘ve read the majority of Roxane‘s books (absolutely love her) but am going to go with Not That Bad on audio and

The Sacrifice of Darkness

TheBookHippie The only one I have not read -

Not That Bad: Dispatches from Rape Culture

BarkingMadRead I‘ve never read her before, I‘m reading Hunger 2d

TheBookHippie I did order her new penguin but it got delayed til end of March https://a.co/d/5cm5cle 2d

AmyG I just started

Bad Feminist

(edited) 2d

Texreader I‘m starting with

Ayiti HB

Lkempf I‘m reading
