What do you do when you have to do 2 days of prep for your 1st colonoscopy (I have family w/colon cancer and had to get it done- early detection is key!)- you read a LOT. I enjoyed this book. Not usually interested in horse racing but really liked this and the light it shines on racism. 4⭐
I also finished a James Patterson book 'The Noise' and watched season 8 of Love is Blind, and the movie It Ends With Us (the book was so much better!)

Read this for book club and is not one I'd have chosen to read now given what's happening in our country's government - some terrifying similarities to where we may be headed with this Holocaust novel based on true events.

A fictional story about Colleen Moore, an actress in the early 1900s, who sponsored an incredible fairy castle dollhouse at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. I saw this dollhouse on many trips to the museum, as every year there was a field trip from school, and my parents took us kids there at least a couple of times a year. I loved it and probably still would if I got there again. Maybe it would still make me feel like a princess! ⬇️

Lesliereadsalot The story itself is a typical rags to riches, with the necessary drunk husband and oblivious studio heads. Lots of name dropping. A soft pick, but brought back lots of memories. 3h
BarbaraBB I just read a book about a dollhouse too, one that I often saw as a child when visiting the museum it‘s in: 3h

Reminder of #ParentChildLove of Atticus and Scout during a recent visit to Monroeville, childhood home of Harper Lee. Her house is gone, but there are remains of Truman Capote's aunt's nearby home. The character of Dill is said to be based on him. #FeelintheLove @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Eggs

TODAY‘S PROMPT: LONELY

THE BOOKSHOP OF THE BROKENHEARTED had many feelings going on...heartbreak, tragedy, loving someone even when they weren't lovable, and being hopeful for happiness in it all.
