Please forgive me @TheAromaofBooks but can I get a #bookspin refresher?

I suppose four of six I'd liked/wanted isn't bad?
The Enright and Grenville are good reads but not my favourites of their work - wondered if they were carried by their other books / body of work rather than this book? IDK 🤷♀️🤷♀️

My shortlist of favourites (subject to picking up the last 4!)

Thinking about starting a reading journal. Anyone else keep one? Any advice you will share with a newbie? Thanks, my fellow bibliophiles! #ReadingJournal
Nearly there with my women's prize longlist reading.
I won't finish them all, but have enjoyed the reading so far.
(I had read two before the longlist was announced, so not shown here.)

Name change!!! I‘ve decided to link up all my book information into one name.
Sorry for the long break from reading (school and work have been kicking my butt recently). Hopefully the new name and my new look at organization will help me keep on track.

Solar eclipse as seen in Des Moines, Iowa today. About 84% coverage at it's peak. Pretty cool!
This is the time when I was in San Francisco and buying some cassette tapes I‘ve been here before and it was a big record store I feel I was back in the 80‘s or 90‘s it was awesome I just only wish I could go back San Francisco again, I‘m so sorry I wasn‘t updated to this app but I‘m here now

I only managed to read one off my Kindle list in March. Am I supposed to add another?

📘The Holy Bible. Once I finish it, I start rereading it again.
📘 Jesus Calling. A Devotional I read over and over.
📘God Hears Her Joyful Christmas. Christmas Devotional
Not in data system.
This is a cute, funny audiobook of letters between Grandma Vivian, Winslow, the Boston Terrier and Zippy, a Terrier. It's a journey in letters thru Zippy 's first year of living with Winslow. Very light-hearted.

I can't express how 🥹 I am to all of you for giving my wall a fresh and spring-like 🌸 💐🌷🌼🪻🪷look👀 . It's incredible! Thank you so much, folks! #NATURALLITSYSPRINGCARDSWAP
Spreading St. Patrick's 🍀Day cheer! Mailing out festive cards all March long. Sharing luck and joy.
My apologies to folks in HI, AK, UK, and SI for mailing the cards out late and reaching you after St. Patrick's Day. Also, I tagged everyone whose tags I knew. If I did not tag you, that does not mean I did not send the card; it's just that I don't know your tag. #NATURALLITSYSPRINGCARDSWAP
In March ?, I'm excited to delve into Jane Harper's novel "Dry." I've heard great things about it and am looking forward to reading it. Thank you to @Soubhiville for organizing this. #AuthorAMonth
Happy #internationalwomensday
Celebrating by throwing this book in the trash. Not even going to recycle it. I love Cinderella, but this cover makes me want to 🤢
Sometimes my book ambitions are not very realistic. These are due back to the library after lots of renewals, but I still haven't read them. I blame mood reading.
I need to read my Kindle books so badly! I hope you‘ll add me to the participants @CBee
These are only books someone has highly recommended. Barely a dent in the Kindlepopolis.
I edited the picture. Forgot that they had to be square!

A friend shared this from Erik Karl Anderson's YT predictions for the Women's Prize for Fiction - what do you think?

Honest answer, or the one I'll admit to publicly?
(My library system are surveying to "Help improve your library ". Based on the questions which include queries about what you do after you borrow an ebook, I'm guessing they're trying to justify ebook spend.)

My workplace is doing a #Narnia impression.
And adding to my wishlist...

I want to feel bummed. 2 years in a row I haven't met my challenge. Considering the quality of books I read, I am happy with what I did read. Of course, I spent a lot of time tending my garden. So, all is not terrible. My favorite read this year was Ann Raynd's "Atlas Shrugged". What about you?
