While this was a cute, whimsical tale, I don‘t think kids would be pulled into the story.

Such a crazy week! I‘m still putting together my May TBR but here is my April recap. Surprisingly, I finished 18 books this month. The fact that several were short novellas or children‘s books helped.😉

I took part in #SundayBuddyRead #JaneAdjacent #ChildrensClassicRead2024 NancyDrewBR #BobWhiteBuddies #SheSaid #TravelingStars2024 & #SeasonalCozies I also finished all 3 of my #Roll100 books & read several #SeriesLove2024 books & one from my ⬇️

DebinHawaii #AuldLangSpine list & knocked out a couple of challenge prompts. While I didn‘t get around to a couple of books/challenges I wanted to, I feel great about the month. I enjoyed most of what I read but standouts were Zorrie, The Second, Saving Mr. Rochester, A First Time for Everything & the final 2 1/2 books in The Naturals series. 2w
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! 2w
TheSpineView Fantastic! 2w
Librarybelle Awesome reading month! 2w

Yesterday was the 24th of April, time for the drawing of #TwinPeaksReadingChallenge 's featured prompt of April/May. Sorry I'm one day late, but... Yesterday has been incredibly taxing, I just couldn't.
Remember, it is completely optional whether you try to prioritise the prompt or not! It's a bit of added spice for those who feel like it.
This month the prompt is 5. Deputy Hawk - a book by an indigenous author.

SconsinBookyBadger Teeny typo in my litsy name. It‘s missing a y between book and badger. 4w
Yuki_Onna @SconsinBookyBadger Ups, sorry! Thank you for pointing it out, I'd never have noticed and the tags wouldn't have worked correctly 🫣 (edited) 4w

Another series I'm rereading this year - absolutely LOVED the Swallows & Amazons books when I first read them, so I'm going through them again. This is the second book in the series, full of exploring, pirates, shipwrecks, mountain climbing, caves, and more! Every page was a delight.

James I want to get to and think it will probably make for good discussions.
The others are in my ‘books to look out for folder!‘

squirrelbrain I have the bottom two as ARCs and very nearly nominated them! Great minds and all that…. 🤪 1mo
BarbaraBB I had almost nominated The Limits too! And James seems perfect for Camp! 1mo
TrishB @squirrelbrain @BarbaraBB definitely great minds 😁 there‘s some great nominations again. Hello large tbr pile. 1mo

Celebrating #NationalLibraryWeek & honoring all librarians in this brave new world of having to defend the right to read. Thomas Hughes Free Public Library pic is from yesterday's visit to Rugby, TN. The #library opened in 1882 with over 5000 donated books. The utopian community didn't succeed, but the library & 7000 books remain for visitors to peruse & appreciate. A few views to add to one from @plemmdog #litsylibrarians #litsylibrarian

CarolynM ❤️ 1mo
plemmdog @lynneamch glad you enjoyed it! It‘s definitely off the beaten path… 1mo
