Lost in Austin: A Nevada Memoir

Sky in the Deep | Adrienne Young

I am participating in #makemereadit again this year!

This stack contains the books I am considering squeezing in around my other July book plans (#crazyrichasiansbuddyread, mother/daughter book club, and Icelandic literature in preparation of our trip). They all fulfill a #pop19 or #booked2019 prompt. 😃

So, what should I read first? Vote for your top pick, and I‘ll read the ones with the highest votes!

Voting open until this Thursday.

The Sandcastle Empire | Kayla Olson

We survived the end of school sleepover and everyone had a blast!! Maya and I will both be vegging this afternoon with books and Netflix. This is my stack.

I‘m a little delayed on the first discussion questions for the #crazyrichasiansbuddyread, they‘ll go up later today! Also hope to post my late #bookfitnesschallenge weekly check-in later too. But right now....quiet reading time. 😊

Crazy Rich Asians | Kevin Kwan

This was a fun romp! It‘s actually the type of book I usually hate: over-the-top, vicious, drama-ridden chick lit. But I really enjoyed it, & have to purposely refrain myself from immediately picking up the next one!

I love Kwan‘s writing style, and appreciate this is written by a Singaporean, who understands the nuances present in the novel between mainland & overseas Chinese, new vs old money, etc. And the food! 🍲 😋 #crazyrichasiansbuddyread

alisiakae Fills #pop19 #authorfromAsia and is also a pick for #seriesread. 6y

BookishMarginalia I love it too, so fun! 6y

AmyG @4thhouseontheleft The last 1/3 of he book is the best part. Enjoy! I will be travelling on the 7th but I am sure I will find time to respond to the questions. 6y

Crazy Rich Asians | Kevin Kwan

It‘s actually a bit on the cooler side this morning, so brought a blanket outdoors with me. And a grande sized cup of tea....it‘s that kind of day.

I‘m about halfway through CRA and quite enjoying the over the top ride. #crazyrichasiansbuddyread

AmyG It‘s really an easy, fun read. 6y

alisiakae @AmyG Yes it is! Perfect for summer, and I enjoy learning more about Singapore. I was there once in 2000, but for less than 1/2 a day so I don‘t really count it as truly visiting. And it has changed tremendously since then! 6y

TheSpineView Cute mug! 6y

jpellet @4thhouseontheleft Will discussion questions be about the whole book? I haven‘t finished reading yet, so will hold off checking posts so I don‘t accidentally see spoilers if that is the case. Thanks! 6y

alisiakae @jpellet I‘m going to try to keep the first few discussion questions based on the first half of the book. 6y
