Megabooks I would love to join first editions but can‘t always afford it every month. It‘s on my wishlist! (edited) 2y

The Icepick Surgeon: Murder, Fraud, Sabotage, Piracy, and Other Dastardly Deeds Perpetrated in the Name of Science | Sam Kean

pick

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Picture a group of bookstore-hopping #NashvilleLittens. It was time to leave #Parnassus, and I couldn‘t make a decision, so I panicked-grabbed this for the incredible cover. A solid decision. What an intriguing premise! Some stories were a bit lengthy and dry, but overall, this is a fascinating look into what compels humans to venture into ethical gray areas, and sometimes criminal territory, in the name of science.

One's Company: A Novel | Ashley Hutson

pick

Wow! This just blew my mind 🤯❗️Im still processing but count me in as a super fan. I can‘t wait to see what this author does next. The most unique view of the ways in which someone compartmentalizes with trauma, grief, loneliness and fear. Audio narration was FABULOUS. This rates 5 shiny stars 🌟 🌟🌟🌟🌟and #CoverCrush

britt_brooke, Addison_Reads

britt_brooke SO happy you loved it❣️ Nice review. I listened to the audio as well, but also bought a copy recently at #Parnassus because of that stunning cover! 2y

squirrelbrain Sounds great - stacked! 2y

Megabooks Wow!! Looking forward to getting this tomorrow! 2y

Cinfhen Can‘t wait to hear what you think @Megabooks it‘s SO BIZARRE but I was riveted!!! 2y

Cinfhen I‘m thinking you‘ll like this one @squirrelbrain but maybe #BorrowNotBuy - how‘s the dreaded Covid?? Hope you & hubs are on the mend!! 2y

squirrelbrain Yes, I don‘t know the programme referred to, so it might not even get published over here. We‘re both feeling a bit better, but still testing positive this morning. 🤷‍♀️ 2y

TrishB Great review 👍🏻 2y

CarolynM @squirrelbrain Three‘s Company was the US version of Man About The House. While I liked John Ritter, he was no Richard O‘Sullivan 😉 2y

squirrelbrain I wasn‘t aware they were the same programme @CarolynM …. Mind you, I haven‘t watched Man About the House either, but at least I‘ve heard of it! 🤣 2y

Fight Club: A Novel | Chuck Palahniuk

#bookhaul | Picked up a few things at #Parnassus today. Grabbed Fight Club for Cindy‘s #90sSpringFling buddy read next month. I wasn‘t going to buy it, but my husband wants to read it, too. And I bought Gold Fame Citrous before I saw that both @Cinfhen and @Megabooks vehemently panned it. 😆 I‘ve read Moshfegh‘s short stories, but wanted a hard copy.

Megabooks Love, love Homesick! Enjoy! I‘m doing the Fight Club readalong too. I got GFC at dollar tree, so I hope you didn‘t break the bank!! 🤭 maybe you‘ll like it more. Great haul!!!! 6y

britt_brooke @Megabooks 😆 Thanks, we‘ll see! 🤞🏻 6y

Cinfhen Return, Return, Return....get a store credit!!!!!! I‘m sending u my copy - I can‘t let you waste your $$ 6y

Cinfhen I‘m NOT joking 🙃 6y

britt_brooke @Cinfhen 😆 It‘s not worth the drive back into the city. 6y

Cinfhen It totally is.... I promise 😘😘 How are the boys feeling? Still battling the flu? 6y

britt_brooke @Cinfhen Still fighting a cough, but they‘re doing much better - thank you! 💚 I got it two days after they did and I‘ve never felt fatigue like this. The cough is brutal. I got some supplements from my chiropractor this morning so hopefully that‘ll help me recover from the lingering stuff faster. 6y

Cinfhen Both my hubby and son had the flu...it lasted almost 3 weeks and hubs still has some chest stuff. It was awful. Sorry you guys are dealing with it, but glad to hear you‘re all on the mend. If u change your mind about the book let me know xx 6y

britt_brooke @Cinfhen I will - thanks! 6y

Reviewsbylola I need to get Fight Club. Thanks for the reminder! 6y

Commonwealth | Ann Patchett

One Sunday afternoon in Southern California, Bert Cousins shows up at Franny Keating‘s christening party uninvited. Before evening falls, he has kissed Franny‘s mother, Beverly—thus setting in motion the dissolution of their marriages and the joining of two families. #ikissedagirl #heatofjuly

Cinfhen, BarbaraBB

BarbaraBB Somehow I had interpreted the kisser a woman but of course it can be a man as well! Great choice! 6y

Cinfhen I loved this book!! Have u read

State of Wonder

DivineDiana @Cinfhen I did! And I loved it! 6y

DivineDiana @BarbaraBB I did as well! But this book came to mind, and I thought why not! It is about kissing a girl! 😉 6y

Mdargusch Good one! 👍🏼 6y

DivineDiana @mdargusch Thank you! ❤️ 6y

SledgeReader @DivineDiana @BarbaraBB @Cinfhen @Mdargusch Loved this one! Have you read Bel Canto? Probably my favorite of hers. She‘s one of my go to authors - read everything she writes. Highly recommend Truth and Beauty. Consider visiting Patchett‘s bookstore #Parnassus if you are ever in the Nashville area. She‘s even got a location in the airport! 6y

Cinfhen I liked Bel Canto @SledgeReader but not as much as this one! 6y

DivineDiana Yes! And I absolutely loved it! 6y

BarbaraBB @SledgeReader I haven‘t read Bel Canto yet, even though I have a copy. I will get to it soon! 6y

SledgeReader @BarbaraBB Yay! Please let me know when you do. I‘d love to chat! 6y

BarbaraBB I will! 6y

britt_brooke @emilyhaldi That‘s the only one in this stack I‘ve already read. I liked it; definitely wild. I‘m hoping my husband might be interested or I may use it in a giveaway. 😄 7y
