Reading my TBR

I think there was a point that was pro women, but it was lost in all the digressions #HailTheBail #BetterBooksAhead

Starting this #BookSpinBingo read this morning

Finished this yesterday morning before our family hike/picnic.

This was one of the most honest, straight-forward, heart warming coming of age stories I ever read.

Not my favorite Conroy. The descriptions of Charleston were long-winded and boring; and quite frankly, annoying. But the story, oh man, what a story! It was compelling, ugly, thought provoking, gripping, and worth reading.

Starting my first #AllergicToChunksters of the year which also is my April #DoubleSpin and a #BookSpinBingo book. I love when the reading challenge stars align ☺️

I really enjoyed this slice of life family story. Being close to the MC's age, there was quite a bit I could identify with.

Starting my April #BookSpin

Late to the party, but glad I finally made it.

I liked it, but I didn't love it. Jim's surprise revelation diminished it somewhat for me 🤷🏻‍♀️

It was worth reading. A little slow until about halfway. It had a bit of a covering my ass feeling to it; but overall an interesting, horrifying read.

But what the hell was that wasp scene at end?

Current read

A good, sink-into, partially estranged family story. I really liked the characters, the pacing, the writing. I will definitely be reading more this author.

I read that meta won't allow the author to promote her book on their platforms; so of course I just to order it. #bookmail
