1. Back and forth.
2. Tagged. I was recommended this book a few years back and it honestly helped so much.

This book could‘ve been a little bit shorter, but overall, it‘s a good book. It‘s dark but hope shines through at the end. Whitaker deals with the theme of how what happens to someone in the past can impact not only them but those around them far into the future.

My leg hates me — same leg as my knee but this time it‘s my thigh. No idea what I did, but it‘s too painful to walk on or stand very long at all. So here‘s my reads for #weekendreads. I‘ll probably only finish The Serviceberry since it‘s short. Maybe All the Colors of the Dark. The others are: How the White Trash Zombie Got Her Groove Back, The Cloister Walk, and Mina‘s Matchbox.

The temperature got up in the 40s today; I walked with my jacket open for a good portion of my walk. That‘s a Mardi Gras snowman in the pic. 😊 While I like this book, I can‘t figure out why I still have over 4 hours left. What‘s left to tell that would take that long? #audiowalk

In light of the executive order made by our uninformed new president, declaring that there are only two genders, I would like to help fellow readers become better educated. Here are six books written by and/or centering on the experiences of non-binary and transgender people. I wish I had a recommendation with some intersex representation, but I can‘t think of anything at the moment. Feel free to suggest other great books in the comments below.

Boy, was it a bit chilly this morning! When I went to walk, it was technically 40°, which I can do with a light jacket; however, the “feels like” temp was 29°, so I had to layer a bit AND wear a jacket and a hat. The characters in this book are just making me so sad for them all. #audiowalk

Totally insane, with a perfectly unsatisfying ending

I‘m enjoying this book, but I sometimes get a little lost for a minute with the jumps in time. We are supposed to get a lot of rain tomorrow and then snow, so I‘m trying to get in my #audiowalk while I can!

A magnificent book and a remarkable human. If only stories like this were mandatory reading.

SUCH an annoying bunch of people who keep ignoring their telephones and keep making stupid, hysterical decisions. All because of the kidnapping of their father decades earlier? I don‘t even want to know. I feel as irritated as I did when reading Fleishman. Although I managed to finish that one.
Note to self: ignore future works by this author!!
