Life has been full of distractions and I‘m finding it hard to focus on my reading. I was lucky to finish these books last month, mostly for book clubs and buddy reads. I enjoyed all of them.

How can Angie Thomas's books just get better and better? So glad I listened to this as an audiobook. It has all the vibes, all the depth and all the pain. Honestly, I, once again, felt ashamed to be born as a white person. Seriously, there's so much going wrong in this world, but this book still sends out a huge message of hope.
An historical fiction inspired by the blue-skinned people of Kentucky, coal-mining and the Pack Horse Library Service. Cussy Mary is a kind and intelligent person who happens to have blue skin. For this, she suffers as a social outcast. She creates a life for herself by bringing books to the Appalachian people and is also known as the Book Woman. A story of resiliency and tenacity in the face of unrelenting discrimination.
A great story that allows the reader to expand their perspective or perhaps relate to the amazing story.
