Hopefully, it's a good one, Dorie!

Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara has added another cute book to the Little People BIG DREAMS series for even littler people. Jane Goodall. What a wonderful woman!

Work It, Girl: Boss the Bestseller List Like J.K. Rowling by Caroline Moss celebrates one of the world's favourite authors. This one is for kids, but adults will enjoy the inspiring story and clever paper pictures. I sure did!

It was a treat to re-read One Good Turn by Kate Atkinson. I liked it even better than before. First published in 2007, it was re-released along with the rest of the Jackson Brodie series to get us warmed up for #5.

Currently just started reading , about the writing and publishing of the book Dr. Zhivago and how much Stalin didn't want this book to be written. So far so good :)

Finished A Stranger on the Beach

My Review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Currently enjoying The Warehouse by Rob Hart.
Set in a slightly futuristic world where the world is in disarray due to climate change and a behemoth amazon-like company has taken oven nearly all businesses and provides most of the employment. People live in an enclosed city where they work 7 days a week at a job assigned by the company.

I just enjoyed another trip to Prague in A Second Death by Graham Brack, featuring my favourite Czech detective, Josef Slonský, and his police 'family'. The crimes are nasty, but the people are great!

My Review https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

I'm currently listening to the audiobook of The Honey Bus: A Memoir of Loss, Courage and a Girl Saved by Bees. I missed getting to this one before publication and saw it was available from hoopla so I'm listening while I work. It's sooo good. Not the easiest things to hear as this woman had a rough childhood, but it's very well written and I'm also learning a lot about bees (which I already was intrigued by). So I suppose this sort of counts since I do have the eARC from NetGalley.



I'm also reading The Dog Who Took Me Up a Mountain: How Emme the Australian Terrier Changed My Life When I Needed It Most. This one is actually the eARC from NetGalley as it's not published yet. Really enjoying it and think it will appeal to dog-lovers who of course all know our dogs are the best. =)

Just started The Perfect Wife by JP Delaney. I can only read one book at a time.....wished I could read read 2 but I’ve tried.

I hope that you love it every bit as much as I did Dorie.💕😍📚

Mahatma Gandhi by Mª Isabel Sánchez Vegara and Albert Arrayás is an attractive introduction to the non-violent protester for justice . It's for the very young, but it will help their teachers and parents learn, too.
4★ My review with several pictures

by Tessa Harris.
I'm not sure. I really want to like this book. I liked the first two parts in the series. So I'm really kind of mad at myself that somehow suddenly I really do not like the MC anymore. It's like my bucket of don't-care-she's-a-Mary-Sue suddenly cannot take it anymore. Because, if I'm honest, she already was a bit of a Mary Sue in the earlier installments. I just somehow seem to notice now.

Or, as my husband pointed out earlier today, I seem to be on my limit of being forgiving of others, after weeks of being more social than I usually am. I just realize it could very plausibly have something to do with that.

I'm currently reading A House of Ghosts by W.C. Ryan and I do hope I will get into the story more. For now I like it well enough, it has every sign it is a good story, but it just does not give me the 'spark'. While it also has so many things that usually give me this spark. Meh.
