#pop19
pickOne of the best books I've ever read. I cannot understand why it wasn't appreciated more when first published, but I'm thankful #NYRB gave it a second life! A melancholy novel about life, work, disappointment, & the love of literature, this novel was so real & incited every range of emotion in me. 5⭐️s! So so sorry for the delay, this will reach its destination in a couple of days! #LMPBC #Round7 #GroupC #WinterGames #TBRRead #TMSkellington
pickFinally I finished #Pop19 ..... and what a wonderful note to end on.... 💕
Loved the tagged book so much.... I did an audio/print combo and couldn‘t stop reading or listening.
😢😢😢 An #infinitetissueread for me....
This was a fun challenge, and I‘m definitely on board for #Pop2020 😊👍📚

Just starting all 3....
- Dear Sugar will complete my #Pop19 challenge (doing an audio print combo) It has me at the introduction! I‘m loving the term “ radical empathy”!
- Thank you lovely friend for the Shriver novella I just know I‘m going to love...😘
- Tell me everything is set at a liberal arts college, which basically is my catnip 🐱 so fingers crossed...🤞💕
pickAudio loan didn't come back until yesterday, which was perfect because I was able to finish this & have it count towards the #WinterGames! Glad I finally read it. Obscene, creepy, & will make you think of Christmas in a different light lol. Filled with kids & adults doing horrific things & showcases a frightening innocence that does not discern evil from fun. Kate Mulgrew's narration really brought this to life. #HolidayRead #TMSkellington 4⭐️s
pickMissed the post office yesterday before leaving town, so this will be sent to @rachelm first thing in the morning!
Wholly different from what I was expecting, this short novel proved to be an important work in its own right. Its strength was the use of surrealism to convey the truths & nuances of present-day issues on the topic of immigration; bridging cultures & languages. The translator's note was very informative! 4⭐️s #LMPBC #Round7 #GroupI
#weeklyforecast
2 new ones to start today, though I‘m working a 9 hour shift so not sure what start I‘ll make! 🤦♀️
The Trollope is for #pop19 a reimagined classic, and has been on my #tbr forever! Hope I like it as much as Eligible, the only other one I‘ve read from the Austen Project...
Erotic Stories is for a bookclub next week... and is narrated by Meera Syal who I love 😊👍🎧💕
#DecemberTBR
A bit ambitious for me for this month, but let‘s see how it goes....
4 books to finish #20booksby2020
2 to complete #Pop19
2 book club reads
1 novella (thank you @Cinfhen !😘) that I‘m super excited about
so-soWell, this was an interesting concept, but not the greatest execution. The MC, Simon, really got on my nerves, I actually wish the book had been written from Kat‘s POV. I don‘t think I will be reading the other books in the series.
It is my FINAL ✔️ for #popsugar2019! 🎉🎉 This fills the #LitRPG prompt. Also #BBRC #TeenAngst : not appropriate for MG (violence)
