BoardingHouse

pick

A found family set in a 1950‘s DC boarding house. I enjoyed getting to know each of the characters (including the house) although I think I would have liked it more if it were based on just one character. That‘s just a personal preference though and this was a good read overall. #AuthorAMonth @Soubhiville

Karisa I just finished this book for #LiteraryCrew monthly read. I really liked it too. If only one character‘s POV, I would‘ve picked Grace or Claire. Who‘d be your pick? (edited) 1d

Bookwormjillk @Karisa Reka or Grace I think 1d

📗 I loved The Briar Club (tagged) so much! It features my favorite trope of found family and a wide array of strong, female characters. So good!

📕 I couldn‘t get through Anxious People. I just couldn‘t get into it🤷🏻‍♀️

Joining my voice to the choir singing this historical fiction book‘s praises. Sixty percent in and loving all the quirky, found family vibes of this boarding house of women circa 1950‘s DC. It‘s making me need to go watch A League of Their Own (maybe Fried Green Tomatoes) too⚾️😭💗

I really enjoy Kate Quinn books and this is no exception. Set in a Washington DC boarding house during the McCarthy era 7 women, each with their own secrets, bond over weekly dinners. The audio was great but now will borrow from the library to look at the recipes from each character‘s chapter. Pic is from IG of Candlestick salad. 4.5 🌟

Look forward to discussing with #LiteraryCrew

I normally do not have this many books going at once and it all looks like a bit much grouped together like this.

April buddy reads: About 1 1/2 hrs left on Briar, close to finding out who‘s dead and why hopefully. Next will finish Heartstone on audio.

Loving Wild Dark Shore. Still making slow progress on King.

NG: Finding it hard to get into the Donoghue and the Book & Beach Club is ok.

dabbe W🤩WZA! 2w

Ruthiella Wow, that is a lot! 😳 2w
