I have Grace on loan from a friend, All Fours Libby/eBook came off hold (of course 🙄), picked up the Heyer yesterday from the library, and have had Untamed on my shelves for awhile - something made me grab it today 🤷🏻‍♀️

I STARTED EACH TODAY! I am supposed to read Atwood‘s The Robber Bride for a club meeting next Wednesday and Kaleidoscope is my current audiobook. #OhDear #WhereToFocus #Overwhelmed #Distracted

* Had a job interview a.m. 😢

BkClubCare Thanks for asking; nah, not sure but I think I presented as a desperate inarticulate loser. #ohwell 2mo
BkClubCare #Oct2024 Book89 Ended up skimming thru to read the end and … I am ambivalent. 1mo

Bklover She should stress! What a mistake that will be!! 1y
willaful I feel like this can not end well. And I'm worried about Mrs. Moore. 1y
AnnR It seems like both ladies are having mental breakdowns but for different reasons. What a time for it though, especially since Dr. Aziz will certainly get blamed for something as he's #caughtinthemiddle of all this. 1y
dabbe So Aziz gets angry at her so-called-are-you-a-polygamist comment and goes into a cave. She follows in a meandering fashion and also goes into “A“ cave, not “THE“ cave. She's alone perhaps? Where's the guide? #ruhroh all over this chapter's ending. 😱 1y
mcctrish This is a hot mess 1y

Memoir interweaving the Great Salt Lake, birds and the death of the authors mother and grandmother.
The bad news is this was just ok for me, good news I'm using it for so many challenges.

#centuryreadchallenge #readingwomenchallenge2019 19.nature

Riveted_Reader_Melissa At least you found a silver lining at the Refuge. 6y
Cinfhen Agreed @Riveted_Reader_Melissa and it‘s a shame, because I‘ve heard wonderful things about this memoir. #OhWell 6y
mreads @Cinfhen well I'm definitely in the minority. There was quite a bit of religion and perhaps I feel differently about death in my late 40s. I did like by the author 6y
Cinfhen Thanks for the suggestion😃 6y

Thanks for your vote of confidence Goodreads but It‘s time to call it for the year.

#readinggoals #ohwell #goodreadschallenge

julesG Picture books might work. Do you have a library with a well-stocked children's section? 6y
BookHermit @julesG Lol. I‘m cool with falling short this year. I don‘t count any work under 100 pages anyway. 6y

Bostonmomx2 Do you like the beer? We live a few hours from that brewery but haven‘t made the trip. A friend of my hubs brought him a bottle and I have to say, I thought it was awful. He didn‘t love it either but didn‘t hate it. It‘s crazy how hard it is to actually get your hands on. 7y
saresmoore Woohoo! 7y
britt_brooke @Lcsmcat I almost tagged that one, ha! 😆 7y
heikemarie I love Pliny!!!!! 7y
VelvetSpade Yummy Pliny!! 7y
britt_brooke @Bostonmomx2 I like it a lot, but you definitely have to be an IPA fan to enjoy it. Part of the appeal is the elusiveness. 😁 7y
VelvetSpade We do Pliny the Younger release every year... wait in line at 10am for beer! Love it! Cheers 🍻 7y

I have a problem 😂. Trying to cure my #emptynest blues 😔😩. The boy child left to go back to college this morning. The girl child left a few days ago. A little retail therapy never hurts. Went in with three books in mind but surprise surprise left with six. #ohwell.

Johanna414 We used to joke that my mom would manage to find a stray kitten or two whenever one of us started college... so at least a few books is a less expensive way to cope! 7y
Karen3 @Johanna414 this is brilliant! My husband would kill me if I brought home another animal. Already have two dogs. When he complains about more books I will just bring this up. #winning 7y
Johanna414 @Karen3 By the time my sister left for college and two kittens showed up a week later, she had 6 all together. Can you imagine the vet bills?! 7y
