BR: The Alienist, Why We Swim, and You Lucky Dog
My last three reads are all over the place! From hunting a serial killer in The Alienist to humans relationships with water in Why We Swim to a romance started by two basset hounds in You Lucky Dog. Variety is the spice of life, no?
BR: The Unwinding of the Miracle, Then She Was Gone, The Guest List {audiobook}, and Eleanor and Hick {audiobook}
I haven’t written a blog post in fore-ev-er! {name that movie} I’ve missed it! But I honestly haven’t had much to chat (write) about lately. Which, I guess is a good thing, all things considered. So, now that I’ve flipped through enough pages, I can at least write about a few books I read/listened to,…
BR: The Glass Castle, You’re Not That Great, and Dreamland
I didn’t have any photos of all the books. So, instead I’m featuring a photo of the snowstorm that I saw out of my window as I touched down in Minnesota last week. Not normal for the middle of October- but I made the most of it. Ok, now onto my latest reads…
BR: The Silent Patient, Ghosted, Why We Sleep, American Dirt, and This is How it Always Is
A lot has changed since I posted my last book review. It’s suddenly fall here in Cincinnati, NFL season has started, and I’ve completed two of my fall virtual races. And I’ve read a few books and listened to a few audiobooks. It’s a good mix of modern day novels, a thriller, and book written…
BR: White Fragility, Lillian Boxfish Takes a Walk, The Turn of the Key, The Kind Worth Killing, And Nothing to Prove
I had great ambition to read several of these books last month. I only made it through one of these, but did finish four audiobooks!
BR: Such a Fun Age, Untamed, Pachinko, and The Giver of Stars
I’ve tried to continue swim/bike/run training even though all my races have been cancelled. I also did the Tighter Together challenge, which was awesome! One thing that helps with runs is audiobooks. I recently made it through a few and one actual book.
BR: Confessions of a Counterfeit Farm Girl, Bringing Home the Birkin, and One Fifth Avenue
When I mentioned I needed some mindless fluffy reads, I had no idea how much more emotionally exhausting 2020 could get. My heart breaks for everything that my home state of Minnesota and the entire country is going through. In the same breath, I think it sometimes has to get worse before it gets better.
BR: The Yellow House, The Most Fun We Ever Had, Just Mercy, and Three Women
I like to pretend I’m as cool and funny as Bev with her imaginary book club.
BR: A Time to Kill, Gingerbread, Say Again, Yes!, and The Testaments
During February I read four books, well three books and one audiobook. I read my first and definatley not last John Grisham book, a very odd novel that I still don’t quite understand, a gripping story about two neighbors, and the intense sequel to The Handmaid’s Tale.
