I'm Sorry You Feel That Way | Rebecca Wait

My #bookspin for May is Ruth Reichl‘s memoir Tender at the Bone: Growing Up at the Table, which has been languishing on my shelf for more than five years. But my #doublespin is the tagged book, which I impulse-purchased a month ago based on how much I loved her book Our Fathers (thanks #europacollective!)

TheAromaofBooks

TrishB The tagged one is great too. I really love this author so far! 1w

willaful Oh, I love Reichl's memoirs! I hope you'll be inspired to read them all after this. Comfort Me with Apples is a real heartbreaker. 1w

CSeydel @TrishB @willaful I‘m excited for both of these! 1w

TheAromaofBooks Yay!!! Enjoy!!! 1w

mcctrish @jlhammar I‘m going to order a copy now 1mo

tpixie @jlhammar please add me to your list. This book was awesome. ( how often does #Europacollective read books together?) 4w

mcctrish @tpixie I want to say quarterly - this is my third - we read Our Fathers in October and Novel Bookstore in December ( at least I did ) Postcard was March but I couldn‘t get my hands on it in time. I‘m totally buying them now so I don‘t have to wait 4w

tpixie @mcctrish thanks!! That sounds doable!! Thanks for the backlist! 4w

jlhammar @tpixie Great, I‘ll be sure to include on future posts! Yes, it is quarterly. In June we‘re reading The Road to Dalton by Shannon Bowring, in September A Long Way from Verona by Jane Gardam and in December

Belle Greene

tpixie @jlhammar thx!!! ☺️ 4w

tpixie @jlhammar Belle Greene sounds great! Last year I read about her in Marie Benedict‘s

Current buddy and bookclub reads that are on now or about to start #gettingmyducksinarow 🦆🦆🦆🦆🦆 I‘m not sure I can imagine only reading 1 book at a time 🤣🤣

Suet624 I don‘t know how you do it! I generally can only handle one read at a time. 1mo

mcctrish @Suet624 I read them at different times, daily buddy reads I read first thing in the morning or after school, Sunday Buddy reads I read on Thursdays ( I don‘t know why I picked that day) audio books while I drive or putter, bookclub reads before bed. My audios are usually non-fiction or light - The Postcard is last months #europacollective I‘d have rather it in print and I should have just bought it 🤦🏻‍♀️ I can‘t stop listening to it 1mo

Suet624 I wish I had read rather than listened to The Postcard. Your reading routine is impressive! 1mo

Not my usual type of audio ( I usually do non-fiction) I‘m obsessed with this story and because it‘s talking to me, I‘m talking back to it #europaeditions #europacollective

BarbaraBB ❤️ 1mo

jlhammar So good, isn‘t it? I did print, but felt the same—once I started I didn‘t want to do anything else (and was rather annoyed with life getting in the way)! 1mo

mcctrish @jlhammar my old phone keeps dying, I am some mad 😡 1mo

tpixie @mcctrish yes! We really need iPods to come back so we don‘t waste as much battery on our phones by listening to audiobooks for hours!!! 1mo

mcctrish @tpixie that‘s the truth 1mo

Mesmerizing. Brutal. Poignant. And so very important. I am so glad I read this book.

My hold FINALLY came in so it was time for a walk. This brutal photo is of our boulevard grass that I‘m trying to turn into a wild garden. Some of my gifted and transplanted plants seem to be finding their way back 💚💚💚 I think it might be time to clean up the ‘beds‘ #europacollective

tpixie Fun project!! 1mo

Like a Sword Wound | Ahmet Altan

An embarrassment of riches from a trip to the used bookstore. Very excited to read several in here that I had been looking for for a while! #europacollective

jlhammar Wow, what a gorgeous stack! 1mo

BarbaraBB That is an incredible bookhaul! 😍 1mo

Gleefulreader @BarbaraBB @jlhammar I couldn‘t resist. They are normally $25-29 pre-tax here in Canada. These ranged at the used store for $5-10 at the most! 1mo
