🎶Tumble outta bed and I stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition🎶
Grateful for a bit of reading time before the grind begins!
Christmas is over,
the new year is underway —
time for a vacation.

Is it just me or is anybody else a little burnt out right now? I‘ve got the January blues. 😌

Here's the second of the three book challenges, feel free to join, this time short stories and also on Storygraph https://app.thestorygraph.com/reading_challenges/ea4660bf-b3a1-43b3-84be-a7e4f64....
Short stories, every year I mean to read more but I read a few and that's it, this year I wanted to do it differently and put this together.
#Celebrate Day 5: #StickerOnCvr #StickerOnCover on this book for being a National Book Award finalist. I suspect this one is perfect for our #BIPOCIntlAuthorArtist2026 reading theme.
pickI‘ve read this twice before and I still love this book of short stories, essays, and recipes. It‘s just very soothing at such a busy time of year.
pickThe stories in this book were fantastic (not to compare but this book satisfies what I was hoping to read in Bliss Montage). I picked this book up on a whim at Rose City Reads - a used bookstore in NE Portland - and I‘m so grateful that I gave it a chance. I already have the author‘s other books on hold at the library. Well written and thought-invoking stories - the whole lot.
I was on a short fiction streak in Oct/Nov and this was a truly stellar collection. All the stories were fantastic, but the ones I loved best tied into the novels I've read.

A few excellently spooky stories for October. It's Edith Wharton, so even the boring stories were well-crafted.
