I picked up this short stack from my library‘s used book sale this weekend. I‘ve had the top and bottom books on my to read list for some time. Any you loved here?

tpixie I‘ve been wanting to read Cutting for Stone for years. I enjoyed Wicked Bugs and Wicked Plants. I just bought her newest 5d
Soubhiville @tpixie I wasn‘t aware she had just published a new one 🙂. I would also be interested in Wicked Plants, I‘ve seen it reviewed here a lot. Isn‘t there also a coloring book? 5d
mhillis Nice stack, the only one I‘ve read is Cutting for Stone! 5d

tpixie @Soubhiville I think there is a coloring book, but I‘m not certain. Also on YouTube is a museum exhibit of wicked bugs or plants I can‘t remember which one I‘ll have to look for it 5d
