'Get in Trouble' was my favorite story collection that I read last year. I felt like Link's approach was fresh and imaginative: she could create whole worlds in just a few pages without sacrificing characters or story. I've heard a lot of good things about this collection, and I love the title 🎩🐇

Cinfhen I tried reading a different book by Kelly Link.... and I just couldn‘t get through it

Pretty Monsters

Billypar @Cinfhen I suspect she's another love or hate author, given that how unique her style is. 5y

Cinfhen Yup!! I appreciate when authors have a unique or identifiable “voice” 5y

If you can‘t get enough of War of 1812 nautical tales following a lad through the ranks, then try Mr. Midshipman Easy! ⚓️⚔️☠️

Cinfhen, RohitSawant

Cinfhen I wonder if I would like any of these nautical tales??? 5y

CrowCAH @Cinfhen I haven‘t read this one...yet, but the Aubrey/Maturin series by Patrick O‘Brian is great! 5y

See Jane Run | Joy Fielding

#MayMovieMagic

(Day 28 - #Easy)

*The tagged book by Joy Fielding reminds me of my first “easy” readers, the “Dick and Jane” series. Above are illustrations and a cover from 1956 vintage editions of those books. Did you read them?

Cinfhen, RohitSawant

Cinfhen Yup!!! See Dick Run. Dick can Run. See Jane run. Jane can run. Dick and Jane can run. Can you run? 5y

KathyWheeler My mom said they frustrated me, which I don‘t remember, although I do remember the books. 5y

batsy Yes, we had the Ladybird series of Peter and Jane books! 5y

RohitSawant Wonderful take on the prompt. Wasn't aware of these! Love the artwork. 5y

gradcat @rohit-sawant Oh, see what you missed? 😂 I think books were pervasive for English-language readers of a certain age. @Cinfhen seems to remember them pretty well. @batsy I don‘t know of those editions...I suppose they are also illustrated? 5y

gradcat @KathyWheeler Maybe because they are so repetitive? 😂 5y

KathyWheeler @gradcat Probably so! 😄 5y

Out of The Easy | Ruta Sepetys

After checking my GR TBR I came across this book that I added 4 years ago! And I have yet to read it!

I‘m not sure why since I love New Orleans and Ruta Sepetys so I am moving this one up nearer the top of my list

Cinfhen, RohitSawant

Bookish_B I read this last year when I was getting ready to go to New Orleans on vacation. I loved it! 5y

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I loved this one!! 5y

Reviewsbylola This was a pick for me! That being said, I don‘t remember much about it. 🤪 5y

Laid-Back Camp, Vol. 3 | Afro

#MayMovieMagic #Easy

I absolutely adored the Laid-back Camp anime so naturally I had to start reading the Manga as well.

Its just so damn cute and innocent. I find it very relaxing and #easy watching (and now reading) a story about a group of middle-school girls discovering their love of camping in the great outdoors. 🤷‍♂️ #Kawaii

@Cinfhen @rohit-sawant

RohitSawant This sounds fun! 5y

Easy Recorder Tunes (Easy Tunebooks) | Philip Hawthorn

Life shouldn‘t be too difficult with all these #easy self help books available! There are literally millions!!
#maymoviemagic

Cinfhen, RohitSawant

Cathythoughts I think I often find more help in Classic novels ... the good self help books are few & far between ( IMO) that‘s been my experience anyway ♥️ (edited) 5y

rockpools I‘m intrigued by the book cover the Easy Recorder Tunes links to. Sometimes understandable, but still.... 5y

Cinfhen Clever!!!! 5y

TrishB @RachelO 😂😂 I never even looked! That‘s hilarious, I have literally sat here giggling. Booknerd humour 🤷‍♀️ 5y

TrishB @Cathythoughts I feel the same! Never found one that didn‘t tell me something I didn‘t know, even if I never got round to doing it. Perhaps it‘s my stubbornness 🤷‍♀️ 5y

RohitSawant Nice one! 🙌🏼 5y

The Ordnance Survey Puzzle Book | Ordnance Survey

Because the good folks at OS know how much map geeks like to pore over a map, they‘ve come up with a ‘puzzle‘ book. Only the puzzles aren‘t really puzzles, more like excuses to stare at more maps for more hours. And of course every page has an #easy question. #MayMovieMagic

#knowyouraudience!

Cinfhen, RohitSawant

Cinfhen Ha!!! That‘s fabulous!!!! 🔍❤️ 5y

rockpools @Cinfhen ‘Easy‘ was surprisingly tough! 5y

Cathythoughts 🤦🏻‍♀️ oh no ! Reminds me of these OS maps & my geography teacher ... & long ago exams ... 😂🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️ 5y
