I am taking life lessons from an 80-year-old dancer because she is tough and likely in a much better shape than I am
Dark, funny, sharp, amazing. Left me a little breathless.
Filled with languid, beautiful college dread. Love it!
Early Victorian London, lady investigators, medical men, dangerous mermaids, nostalgic ghosts, things in jars. Playful, macabre, entertaining. Jess Kidd at her best!
Hypnotic, interconnected, thrilling ode to storytelling.
A novel woven with a collection of stories about British, modern women. Super readable!
A little Friday night inspiration. Most sticky for me: “Be grateful for what you have AND demand what you deserve” and “Failure means you‘re finally IN the game.”
A great graphic novel with a serious discussion about race and immigration, but also with some giggles.
Blah. He tells many semi-entertaining stories about running and complains much about his divorce/ex-wife. I kind of see why he was divorced.
Two books about monsters, very different monsters, but both monstrous.
I was trying to hold off on buying it and then I realized I was being silly. Of course I need this book!
Forest bathing in the backyard but still, it‘s green.

Reading in a preparation for the author visit. The cover kills it.
2nd in an awesome Viking series. Violent, female-strong, historical. Coming out August 2018.
Emotional, dark, privileged, funny, introspective, set on the Venice Beach, possibly featuring a merman. Perfect bitter beach read. #books #bermuda #beachread #merman
I AM, I AM, I AM by Maggie O'Farrell--a fascinating collection of essays about the author's near-death encounters, written in a way that sparkles, like the feather on the cover.
5-stars for this hot and violent Viking tale. Viking women kicked ass!
Leave me alone to read. I am not getting any younger!
Sherlock Holmes is better as a woman and with a cat. This is the second book in an amazing series and the cat is featured only outside of the story.
Beautifully written book about Germans, especially German women, during and after the World War II. It's about national guilt and responsibility and personal capacity to live and feel connection with other people in spite of the darkest of evils. And, with their themes of spreading nationalism and fascism, the story feels unfortunate in its relevance to current times.
Roxane Gay loved it and she is not wrong. Beautiful!
A fabulous journey to the 19th-century Peru in search of treasure.
Stories within stories. Rich language. Big feeling. Messed-up characters. A story about creating, being yourself, and being happy.
Used bookstores are still my jam.
Upcoming Erdrich dystopia. My brain is vibrating in anticipation.
Skipping, sexy, thoughtful, happy poetry. Also bicycles.
A fictional story of Thoreau, Emerson, and mostly Samuel Lock, an escaped slave living next to the Walden Pond. Racism, privilege, and the meaning of freedom, or even the meaning of life.
My date night with Bob, Unabrow, and Beyoncé.
A girl, a cat, and a quest. What else do you need?
Stuffed French toast and this collection are definitely more beautiful then Beyoncé. She is cool, too.
I am obsessed with dark, strange, dirty, exquisite The Lonely Hearts Hotel, but what to read next??!!
I want to Make Trouble with John Waters and be More Alive And Less Lonely with Johnathan Lethem
Happy Birthday to The Day I Died by Lori Rader-Day: great cover, thrilling plot, memorable main character.
The cover, the language, the tone. I just love everything about this book.
When was the last time you read a book by and about a Czech, let alone a Czech in space? I'm slightly in love with this book. 😍📚Philosophical, lyrical, political, humorous, and a bit cynical. Sooo good!
Lovely Anne Lamott's new book is out today. And so are many other exciting titles. Happy New-Books-Tuesday!
