Thanks for the #Two4Tuesday tag @TheSpineView
1️⃣ After grade school I was hit or miss. If liked the subject (English, writing, History) I was good but if I wasn‘t interested (Math) I didn‘t apply myself & was not great!
2️⃣ I loved the Finishing School series & Mademoiselle Geraldine‘s Finishing Academy for Young Ladies of Quality seems like a fun school to learn useful skills like espionage, poisoning & proper curtsies.
Tag—you‘re it!🤗
It's been too long (2020) since I've read all of Gail Carriger's Parasolverse. And of course I needed to make a Google Doc that is color coordinated with Book Covers. https://bit.ly/48ATIxR
Then because there's nothing better than listening to Fictional Hangover
https://www.fictionalhangover.com/ discuss and it's thanks to Ms. Gail that I found Podcast, added in Episodes for corresponding books.

The book gods have spoken, and here's what I should be reading this month. If all goes well, I'm starting a new series from my shelves and my cooking will improve.
I love Gail Carriger. Her books are always such a great escape. That ending had me shook though. I can‘t wait to see how this series ends.
#AwesomeApril A three book weekend so far. The sick hubby is sleeping a lot. lol @Andrew65
A steampunk finishing school. That floats, concealed, in the clouds. Because why wouldn‘t it. Where they teach etiquette and espionage. And there are werewolves and vampires, for that supernatural hit. I love getting entangled in Gail Carriger‘s worlds on days when I just need to get lost in some delightful happy for awhile.

Currant read. I love Gail Carriger.
#WinterReadathon points total for the week is 430. I‘m enjoying the little extras. They are keeping me motivated. Thanks @DieAReader @Andrew65 @GHABI4ROSES
4.5- as always hilarious and funny, well still being emotional. The plot twist got me, she had me going on one train of thought as to what was going on. And I also appreciated another plot twist not part of the main plot as much. I loved the characters! And how they're diverse despite the time period. I would have liked more of Lord Ackaldama though since he wasn't actually in the book only mentioned.
None of the other girls likes Sephronia any more because she did so much better on the first term test. But she needs their help to investigate why the school is being moved to London and why boys are being allowed on board.
Vampires, werewolves, and picklemen, oh my. Lots of growth in this one for Sophronia as she learns the skills she is being taught have real-life consequences for other people.
