My May TBR is ready to go!! Bring on the reading! #bookspinbingo
so-soJanuary 2025 Book #11
This retelling for me is poor integrating and even boring. I‘m not the target audience but didn‘t like it. However, the illustrations are beautiful made by the author. 2⭐️
pickJanuary 2025 Book #10
I know this one didn‘t work for everyone but it worked for me. I liked the idea of a novel within a novel. The drama in the novel aunt Addie wrote was so silly, maybe too long but I lol. It was like watching the movie Clue but without a murder. When you thought you had the answer another ridiculous situation appeared. It was fun but the ending also has nostalgic, sad moments for aunt Addie. I like these covers😍 3⭐️
pickJanuary 2025 Book #9
This is the conclusion (supposedly) of Mirren Triggs trilogy) I know first book is already translated (The Snow Girl) which is a Netflix series.
I liked the conclusion. At the end we see a mature Mirren who decides to make a choice in her relationship and life in general. The case in this story is so sad. A body was found with his “mouth sewn” and a father looking for his son who disappeared 30 years ago. 3.8/4⭐️
pickWhile everyone is posting their May tbr, I‘m still posting books read in January 😳🙄🤷🏽♀️☺️
January 2025 Book #8
I enjoyed this book inspired in real facts and real people. It motivated me to read about what happened in that period of time before WWII and about these characters. I couldn‘t put it down because I like novels inspired in this period of time. 3.8/4 ⭐️
Here‘s my May #Bookspinbingo list. I‘m slowly getting back my reading mojo. I chose several new releases from a list my librarian daughter showed me on Goodreads. I‘m hoping May will be a good month. @TheAromaofBooks @CBee
#BookSpinBingo for May 2025. I may be overly optimistic putting The Way of Kings on there—it *will* be the next book in the Cosmere Buddy Read, but it‘s a real chunkster 😅 I am travelling for a bit in May, so it might make a good train book. Although I could say that about the Hadfield, which is an audiobook read by the author. Decisions, decisions!
pickFamily secrets are revealed and new and old loves are found when a grandmother and granddaughter make a summer visit to the Italian island where their family is from. A decent read and the descriptions of the Italian settings will make you feel like you were there - or at least make you wish you were!
