Bk2 for June is done! If my readings not quite back to what it was, at least there‘s light at the end of the tunnel now thank god👍I enjoyed this memoir more than I thought I would, bring back so many memories of what the 80s were like for a teenager. Though for an actor that looked so cool onscreen, he was a total mess off it. Highly recommend. #BookspinBingo #BigJuneReadathon #NonFictionBingo #ImASurvivor #Pop21 #Booked2022 #ByAJournalist

My tentative plans for #Booked2022 #WinterSeason . Of course, it‘s weeks away and I‘m sure I‘ll keep adjusting. Especially as I make decisions about other challenges.

1. Cultish
2. I Am I Am I Am
3. The Poppy War (alternative version of China)
4. The Rainbow Comes and Goes
5. My Vanishing Country (from Amistad / Harper Collins)
6. Prodigal Summer (eco-feminist)

Cinfhen Awesomeness!!! I was thinking of using the Anderson Cooper for the prompt #ByAJournalist 🤓great idea for #WeatherTerm 🌈 3y

Cinfhen I own this one and wasn‘t aware it would work for #BlackOwnedPublishing - thanks for sharing

My Vanishing Country: A Memoir

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Cinfhen Thanks! Of course I‘m also trying to pick thing from #MountTBR because I own sooooooo many unread books. Thinking of just doing our challenge and finishing #readingasia next year. I might just start at the top of my bookcases and read in order. LOL 3y

BarbaraTheBibliophage @Cinfhen This list of Black-centric Imprints of major publishing houses helps open the possibilities up really wide. https://aalbc.com/writers/publishers.php I just picked the first imprint on the list and looked at their offerings until I found one I already own. Simple! (edited) 3y

The Lost Man | Jane Harper

pick

Bk10 of #JumpStart2021 #PickYourPoison #ByAJournalist #AudiobookChallenge #AussieAuthor21 #Pageathon #CloakDaggerChal #ReadItAgainSam #PennyPerPage #362cents & #20in4 #readathon is done! A reread by audiobook again, it also has an interview with both the author & narrator at the end, which was brilliant. Her 3rd novel which isn‘t a Falk book,it‘s set on a QLD cattle station owned by 3 bros, until one is found dead, miles from his well stocked car.

Lizpixie @Jeg have you seen the movie yet? The Dry is my favourite too and I was happily surprised by how good the movie was. Eric Bana was a great Falk👍 4y

Wedderburn: A true tale of blood and dust | Maryrose Cuskelly

pick

That was a quick but depressing trip through a triple homicide in small town Victoria. In October 2014, Ian Jamieson stabbed his neighbor to death with a hunting knife before taking two shotguns & murdering the mans mother & stepfather. At first it seems like the sympathy was with the killer, before the author discovers a much more complicated story. The why is still unanswered. #NonFiction2019 #SomethingWithADeath #ReadHarder2019 #ByAJournalist

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Sounds dark and troubling and oddly fascinating.🤷‍♀️ 5y
