To learn more about each book, just click on the book cover!I was hoping to finish more books with my free evenings last week, but that’s okay. I can’t win them all!
FINISHED SINCE THE LAST UPDATE:
Book Cover Image: It’s Up to the Women by Eleanor Roosevelt
" data-orig-size="263,400" sizes="(max-width: 197px) 100vw, 197px" aperture="aperture" />
Book Cover Image: If We Were Villains by M. L. Rio
" data-orig-size="265,400" sizes="(max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px" aperture="aperture" />
Book Cover Image: Five Days at Memorial by Sheri Fink
" data-orig-size="346,400" sizes="(max-width: 260px) 100vw, 260px" aperture="aperture" />
Book Cover Image: The Book of Joan by Lidia Yuknavitch
" data-orig-size="264,400" sizes="(max-width: 198px) 100vw, 198px" aperture="aperture" />Written in 1933, it is amazing how much of what Eleanor Roosevelt has to say still has relevance. I would happily recommend this gem to everyone.
M. L. Rio’s Shakespeare-filled mystery is amazing but not for everyone. If the Bard fills you with dread or gives you flashbacks to nightmarish high school English classes, this book might not be for you.
Finally having finished Sheri Fink’s expose, I now get why everyone raves about it. So much great food for thought but absolutely horrifying at the same time.
The latest Lidia Yuknavitch is…interesting. It is going to take me a few days to really formulate an opinion about it.
CURRENT READ:
Book Cover Image: The Shadow Land by Elizabeth Kostova
" data-orig-size="270,400" sizes="(max-width: 203px) 100vw, 203px" aperture="aperture" />I know that this is not going to be as good as The Historian, but I have a soft spot for Ms. Kostova because she wrote what is one of my all-time favorite books.
CURRENT LISTEN:
Book Cover Image: The Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood
" data-orig-size="265,400" sizes="(max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px" aperture="aperture" />If ever I needed to re-read this horrifying tale, now is that time.
UP NEXT:
Book Cover Image: Long Black Veil by Jennifer Finney Boylan
" data-orig-size="265,400" sizes="(max-width: 199px) 100vw, 199px" aperture="aperture" />So, what are you reading?
