pickThis was a really fun book to read! It's the 1920s, and Frankie Pratt wants to be a writer. Using her dad's Corona typewriter, she makes a scrapbook to tell her story.
This is a very short book, since there's not much writing on each page, but it's so much fun to look at all of the vintage decorations on each page!
Hurricane day reading.
pick3.5 ⭐️: This book is a unique book told via scrapbook style with a variety of real-life, context appropriate ephemera. While the story is surface-level and errs on the side of expected cliches, the unique format makes it an enjoyable and quick read. It would be an interesting gift for someone who loves scrapbooking/journaling and books with a touch of historical fiction. Full review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/6001570768

Inspired by @BookmarkTavern . #PhotoChallenge #Scarathlon Day 3.
A number of these are by Tom Adams, who did the best Christie covers.

This book was #forgotten in my TBR
While trying to find a photo to use, I can across this article from a few years ago on what people use for bookmarks & then leave forgotten in library books. Pretty entertaining! 😆 https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/books/booksblog/2018/may/14/bac...

JAN 13 #BeginsWith Voice Anne Bishop is one of my favorite authors, I have read most of her books, this one included. This one is a short story. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
New issue of bookmarks! I always love their covers—so cozy.
Here's another updated challenge #ReadtheUSA2021 from the beginning of the year. Added Rules of Prey and Pieces of Her so these will also be added to my #Scarathlon2021 numbers for #TeamSlaughter.
I don't think I'll get this one finished. I'll have to try better next year.
