pickThank you to my #AuldLangSpine #ALSpine partner, @Erinreadsthebooks for recommending this one. It‘s been on my TBR for a while and this motivated me to move it to the top of the list.

pickSo good! Captivating and powerful, Lawhon‘s novel is a gripping read that you won‘t want to put down. Based on a true story of a midwife in 18th century America, I loved this strong, courageous woman who was fighting for justice and truth, no matter what it takes. This is a story of resilience, compassion, family, and the relentless pursuit of equality. #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks
pickA fantastic music memoir! The audiobook is fantastic, but now I‘d like a physical copy too, just to see the photos. Diamond and Horovitz tell their story so well, and it‘s very obvious that they dearly love and miss Yauch, and I‘d say this book is a beautiful tribute to him (RIP).
#bookspinbingo - this is my #doublespin for this month!

pickI really enjoyed this. This was my first official Danmei novel and I'm glad I started with this. It was very light and humorous, made fun of and then subverted common tropes, and was a fun read.

pickThis is just a regular murder mystery. It has Agatha Christie vibes which I appreciate. This is the 2nd book in the series.

The husband & I have been off this week, and instead of going to FL as originally planned, we've hunkered down and had the most relaxing, chill week ever - and three days left to go!! I've been reading up a storm and have completed 6 books so far this year. None of them were mind-blowing, but since it's the beginning of the year, they check off so many challenge prompts 😂 So here's the skinny (sorry for the hosts getting tagged multiple times!):
pickI really like Corran Horn so I was happy he was the MC. I also enjoyed getting more Jedi lore. But holy shit was this one long-winded novel. I was starting to feel like it was never going to end, and that makes it border on so-so.
1/80

I haven‘t started the book yet for the #whimsicalreadsbookclub but I looked at the reading schedule and it looks like I still have enough time to read the book. I‘m glad because I have a lot going on this month with reading. I‘m doing #noplacelikeholmes, #roll100, #bookspinbingo, #readyourkindle and this book club but I still have plenty of time in the month. There‘s no need to rush. I can go at my own reading pace. Reading is not a race.
pickTold from Chet‘s (🐶) POV.
Chet and his private investigator human, Bernie, look for a missing teen girl. I love the relationship between Bernie & Chet and I found Chet‘s inner monologue very entertaining.
This one checked off several boxes for me.

pickIt was a nice overview of pop culture during the 90's. It's a bit US/UK centered, but it covers a good range of topics: there's the first Iraq war, rave culture, the art scene, apocalyptic cults, Princess Di, the Internet starting to loom over everything. All in all, an interesting read.
