ElizaMarie Is this the one that had all that controversy tied to it? I had wanted to read it, but then I heard there was such drama, then I forgot what the story was. I am interested to hear what you think of it. 11mo

JenReadsAlot Very good! 11mo

jdiehr This one has been sitting on my shelf for at least 2 years 11mo

Moby-Dick, Or, The Whale | Herman Melville

#NewYearNewBooks #InvolvesJourney Can‘t remember if I finally read this last year or the year before.Though it can get a little deep on whale science, I was surprised how funny it was in parts.I read an old Bantam edition, may dig into this Norton Critical Edition someday to see what I missed on the first reading.

@Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

tpixie I want to read this…. 11mo

Gissy @tpixie Apparently this is book #1 in a trilogy according to GR. They are short, this is one is only 207 pages. Book one is more about season in the country. Audiobook is available in my account next month, so I will try to read it because story starts during the month of January. It has good rating in GR 11mo

mabell One of my all time favorites! ❤️🇫🇷 There are others(more stories), but I‘ve always thought of this as a standalone, so no need to feel like you have to read the trilogy 11mo

The Catch Me If You Can: One Woman's Journey to Every Country in the World | Jessica Nabongo

#NewYearNewBooks

Not really a new book for me as I read in for review in the summer of 2022 but one that #InvolvesJourney as the author is the first Black woman on record to visit all 195 countries in the world. It‘s a big, beautiful travel book to enjoy & armchair journey through. 🌎 🗺️

Eggs That is Awesome 👌🏼🙌🏻👍🏼 11mo

Itchyfeetreader As someone stacking travel books all the time this sounds right up my street 11mo

Itchyfeetreader @DebinHawaii I am starting to see that we really do like the same kinds of books ! (edited) 11mo

This Tender Land: A Novel | William Kent Krueger

Love this author and this book that #InvolvesJourney. In the summer of 1932, four young people flee the horrific Indian School in Minnesota becoming vagabonds learning about themselves, each other, and the varied characters they meet along their river odyssey while hiding from the people who are determined to find them. #NewYearNewBooks @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Eggs Great choice 🙌🏻🙌🏻 11mo
