Maybe the Horse Will Talk | Elliot Perlman

Pickpick

I had such a good time with this book! Perlman did deliver again.
Set in a legal corporate setting this book is witty and funny and even touching. “Ordinary” lawyer Steven Maserov and his wonderful entourage challenge the giants and tackle some big corporate issues like the so often ignored MeToo claims in these environments.
Thank you so much Carolyn for sending me this great book! 🤍

Ready with my #BookSpinBingo card for January. Starting with the tagged book for “A book that fits a prompt suggestion that didn't make the final list (#ATY2021)“, using “A book with an illustrated cover“. I tried the audio of it in 2020 and while the format fit the book well, I can never seem to get into audiobooks. So I'm re-attempting with an ebook version.

BarbaraBB I‘m doing #ATY21 too - from 1 til 52. I love that challenge and am now reading ‘a book related to in the beginning‘. 3y
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 3y

jenniferw88 I may be interested in #swapme - may be able to help with #readingasia2021 and #booked2021 - but it all depends on shipping and covid! 3y
Smarkies I am tackling #nonfiction2021 #booked2021 and #readingasia2021 . But realistically I think I will only finish #booked2021 as I already have my books lined up for that. 3y
Cinfhen Agreed @jenniferw88 we will have to wait and see 🙏🏼💓Hope you‘re feeling well!! 3y
Cinfhen I‘m hoping I‘ll be able to cover multiple prompts from multiple challenges using the same book @Smarkies but that doesn‘t always happen 😜it‘s fun to get creative with your interpretations. I‘m so glad you‘ve already covered most of #Booked2021 prompts!!! We try to make the prompts flexible enough so readers have multiple choices 3y
BarbaraBB I am doing #Booked2021 #pop21 #ReadingAsia2021 and #ATY21 (the Around The Year challenge on Goodreads) 😅. And I‘m in for #swapme! (edited) 3y
Cinfhen 🤗🤗🤗 @BarbaraBB 3y
KarenUK I‘ll be doing 2, maybe 3.... definitely #booked2021 and #pop21, and I‘ll try #AAM again, but did so badly this year! And I‘ll be up for #swapme too! 3y
Librarybelle I sign up for so many challenges, then fizzle dreadfully. Definitely doing #ReadingAsia2021 and #Booked2021 , along with my usual GR reading goal. If #LitsyAtoZ happens again, I‘ll do that too, and I am doing #BBRC . Lots of fun reading for everyone! 3y
alisiakae I‘m doing all of those too! 3y
Butterfinger It is so fun to see what prompts from different challenges fit one book. 3y
AmyG Wow. If anyone can complete these, it‘s you as you read so much! I won‘t be doing much this year as I need to read all the books on my shelves. I need to make room! 3y
Cinfhen I do love to “challenge” myself @AmyG but I also need to curtail my book spending so we‘ll see how far I actually get 3y
Cinfhen #BookTwins👯‍♀️ @4thhouseontheleft 😍‼️♥️ 3y
Simona Since I obviously missed a lot this year I have to do some research on #BookSpin I see it everywhere and I'm and I‘m quite intrigued by tihis game .... 3y
Cinfhen @TheAromaofBooks please tag my lovely friend @Simona and give her the #BookSpin spiel xxxxx 3y
TheAromaofBooks @Simona - Hello!! I host the #BookSpin challenge. The concept is that you make a list of 20 books you've been meaning to read & post it (& tag me) & then on the 2nd of every month I draw 2 numbers & everyone tries to read those numbers from their list - so everyone is reading different books but the same numbers if that makes sense haha Here is a master post I made with more details - https://www.litsy.com/web/post/1989556 & it also talks about ⬇ 3y
TheAromaofBooks (cont'd) the bingo part of the challenge, for those folks who reading 2 books from their list just isn't enough!! If you want to join, all you have to do is make a list of 20 books & tag me. I just posted December's numbers today, so you can even jump in for this month if you want to!! Just let me know if you have any questions - everyone is welcome to play along!! 3y
Simona Wow @TheAromaofBooks thank you. This is literally the master post! I'll skip December, but I will be happy to participate in January. 3y
Cinfhen Thanks for sharing the info @TheAromaofBooks it‘s a fun monthly “challenge” @Simona 💚 3y
Simona Looks like fun activity 😘 I‘m finally at home and I‘m already browsing through my piles stacking for January and trying to combine all the challenges 😅 3y
Cinfhen It‘s a good mental workout @Simona 😊😜trying to sort your challenges (edited) 3y
Simona After looong months of not reading I‘m finally really excited about planning my lists.... and this is also great opportunity to do some dusting on my shelves 🤫 3y
Cinfhen I had a small slump too and it definitely felt good to get excited about my books again @Simona 3y
TheAromaofBooks @Simona - Sounds great!! I usually tag everyone with a reminder about making their list a week before I draw the numbers, so I'll add you to that list!! 3y
Simona @TheAromaofBooks Thank you 🙏I will be prepared 😘 3y
Crazeedi @TheAromaofBooks I'm really going to try to do #BookSpin starting in January, I have so many books on my shelves 3y
Crazeedi @TheAromaofBooks I dont know about the bingo part 3y
Cinfhen #BookSpin is a FUN and EASY way to tackle your TBR @Crazeedi / I don‘t even try to do the BINGO part each month just occasionally 3y
Crazeedi @Cinfhen that's good to know, just start easily! 3y
BarbaraTheBibliophage You are ambitious! I‘m sticking to just three challenges in 2021, because one is laaaaarge! (#readingasia) 3y
Cinfhen I‘m hoping to do LOTS of #DoubleDipping with #ReadingAsia2021 @BarbaraTheBibliophage and a #TripleScoop would be EVEN better 🍦🍦🍦 3y
andreadmw Where can I find the info on these challenges? Sorry noob here 😂 3y
Cinfhen Welcome @andreadmw Here‘s the sign up link for #Booked2021: https://bit.ly/2ICbIkC

If you go to the other hosts pages using the challenge hashtags you should be able to find the sign up links or if you tag them they can probably direct you to the proper places. #Pop21 is from Pop Sugar and not “officially” hosted on Litsy. I hope you‘ll join us 🥳The reading challenges are a fun way to meet & interact with others❤️
