bailedI read about half of this before deciding to ditch—more of a focus on potential romantic tension than actually telling the story.

#Libby has a #TogetherWeRead where there are NO HOLDS and UNLIMITED QTY on the designated book!
I spotted this last week Tuesday, 3/25/25.
pickA sad but also inspiring story of the first black woman to win an Oscar. The book takes you through the ups and downs of Hattie McDaniel‘s life and the major struggles she endured even though she won Hollywoods most coveted award. This book inspired me to finally watch Gone with the Wind and in the character of Mammy you can see the spunk the real Hattie had even though her character has been a controversial figure. Definitely an eye opening read.
Hands down best book I read in February. 🥰
pickMarie Benedict is an auto-buy author for me. This one wasn't my favorite of hers, but I think it would hit it out of the park for readers of mysteries like Agatha Christie, who is one of the characters in this book. I like how it is based on a real cold case. The feminist angles appeal to me as much as the treatment of women as disposable angers me.
A thing happened over the weekend. My birthday! 🥳 My #Litsypenpal @Beck9lol did it again and spoiled me with all the books! 🎁 I‘m sipping out of the Plant Lady mug (shaped like a ceramic pot 🥹) and equipped with a shovel spoon!! It doesn‘t get any better than this and relieved I finally snagged a couple of days off to enjoy all of these wonderful gifts.Thanks so much Becky. My heart is full! Hope everyone‘s weekend is filled with great reads!📚
pick5✨ I‘ll admit it took me a bit to get the sisters and passengers of the Titanic straight, but I knew it would have to be a lot of characters based on what we know would happen by the end. I like that the author did a lot of research to make it a mostly true story. I loved this story! 🥰
pick#FeelinTheLove Day 19: There is #IllicitLoveAffair between Belle Greene and a famous married art historian. That was pretty toxic. Come to think of it, she had several #IllicitLoveAffair(s) with married men. My full review here: https://wp.me/pDlzr-r26
