Welcome to June #AuthorAMonth readers! Time to pull out our SA Cosby books. What are you planning to read?
#AuthorAMonth is a no-pressure, no-commitment Litsy challenge. The goal is to celebrate the works of a particular author each month. Authors were chosen through polls by Litsy participants. Read as many as you like, skip months when needed, it's entirely up to you! ⬇️
pickMay #AuthorAMonth #AAM #ReadAway2024 I read another book by this author in May and both were impressive and entertaining. I don‘t necessarily believe that everything happens for a reason and I don‘t believe that is the author‘s intended message. But I do believe that we are all connected. I believe the author communicates this quite eloquently. I‘ll be reading more of her books in the future. Strongly recommended.
May #wrapup #BookspinBingo
I‘m positive I won‘t finish anything today. I DNFed my #Bookspin and got a bingo. I started an #aam book, which is also my #Doublespin, but won‘t finish until June.

Diving into this one on a very grey Sunday morning. I see that quite a few Littens have read this for #AuthorAMonth #AAM. I‘m holding off on reading their reviews until I finish reading as well. Hope you‘re all enjoying your weekend!📚

pickMay 2024 #AuthorAMonth #AAM #ReadAway2024 This short novel packs a lot of wallop! It is spectacular. I love science fiction because it makes me think. All good fiction should make its readers think, but science fiction is my favorite genre. I had somewhat figured out the twist at the end but not nearly all of it. Highly recommended!
Looking forward to my #readyourebooks choice this month as I‘ve shockingly not tried a Jodi Foster bk yet tho they seem right up my alley.
Tagged is #bookspin and #doublespin is Wide Sargasso Sea (which I‘m happy to finally be reading with the #hashtagbrigade)
#aam is giving me the excuse to pick up Station Eleven
So it looks like a game of catch up all round, and not least in #roll100
Hope y‘all having just as much fun this May!
That took WAY too long. And if I look at this image too closely, I will want to straighten the lines :-D Anyway, here's my #bookspin bingo card. I'm kinda excited that my #aam #authoramonth choice is also my #doublespin!

pickI don‘t know if I‘ll manage to read a new one of her‘s for #AAM or not, but I‘m really glad I decided to start by rereading this because I found it much more affecting the second time, and I also found I was better able to to approach it inquisitively several more years post pandemic as life is actually snapping back to normal. I also think her books may work better for me in print than on audio. @Soubhiville
Here are my #Bookspin and #Doublespin for May. #Doublespin is #aam and this is the one I plan to try.
I‘m currently two behind for the year (not counting those above), but I‘m almost finished with one of them.
April #wrapup #BookspinBingo
I still feel like my reading is off. I DNFed my #Bookspin and got a bingo. I ended up skipping #aam for the month.
Reviews? What are those? 🤪
