bailedIf id have read this aged 12 same as dizzy or a teen I‘d have loved it , but just sadly not for me , it was over long , magical realism I struggle with as a genre , however it is well written and I can understand the high ratings , the audio is excellent 👌 part read the physical but mostly listened on audio.
@ShelleyBooksie I arrived home from visiting the kids in Halifax today and this delightful birthday gift was waiting for me. The book mark is appropriate; the tea cups adorable and the book definitely on my list of most coveted. Thank you so much for thinking of me. Looking forward to *finally* meeting you this summer!

Read some good books in March - but The Instrumentalist by Harriet Constable takes top spot for the month. I knew nothing about this book as it was a gift so definitely a nice surprise!

pickWhile probably more fiction than historical fiction, this book captured me. A story about Anna Maria della Pieta and her journey with music. There is not much known about her but I think the author did well in writing a story around what is known about her. It is mainly a story about her and how she sees, feels and senses her music. The descriptions of colours blended with music are inspiring.

Continuing this book while our littlest attends her first birthday party without me 😭. She is quite shy so staying near by in the car in case she wants to leave early. And yes the snow has been gone for a couple of weeks and now this is what it looks like after last night's dumping 🙁
I'm loving this book so far. The descriptions of how she sees music are beautiful! I've been fully transported into the book and I just want to keep reading!
Tonight seems like a great evening for a book and snack. Going to start the tagged book with some buttery herb and garlic pretzels and an orange juice. Nothing beats a book and a snack when your heading back into winter weather after getting a tease of spring weather! I don't know much about this book but fingers crossed it's a good one.
Have YOU read this book?
Beautifully written with the main character, Rosanne, who you will love and who will pull at your heartstrings.
ONLY THE BEAUTIFUL is another marvelous, marvelous read by Susan Meissner that fans will not want to miss and one I didn‘t want to put down.
Enjoy, and have some tissues ready!! 5/5

What an incredible last book of 2024! I could tell within the first couple of paragraphs that this book is special. It has a vibrant energy radiating off the page, as if the words and characters could spring to life and waltz right into your heart. And I think they did?! I just loved it. #Aardvark #AardvarkBookClub
