Pickpick


This was a fun second book in the trilogy. I liked Stacey in Well Met so I was happy to follow her this time around. Not a whole lot of smut, but it was cute to see Stacey and her love interest begin connecting via emails and texts. I admit there was a bit of a twist that I didn't pick up on, so that was fun, if a bit disappointing. There was less of the Ren Faire this time around simply because we got a lot of that exposition in book one.

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Fun and light, this was a pick and now I'm ready to move onto book three to read about Mitch getting it on!

May's #DoubleSpin book read in November @TheAromaOfBooks

Notes of a Crocodile | Qiu Miaojin

Panpan

A crocodile hides most of itself underwater. University student Lazi and her queer friends live like crocodiles, as their sexuality forces them to hide most of their entire selves.
That‘s a great starting point for a book about coming of age and queer identity in #Taiwan in the 1980s.

The writing style however is aloof and the snippets that made up the story are lacking coherence. This made it hard for me to connect.

Librarybelle At least another country is checked off of the map! 3y
Megabooks Ah, too bad. I‘m leaning towards Loveboat, Taipei for Taiwan since it‘s free with my audible subscription. It‘s not something I‘d read for any other reason though. 😂 3y

Tamra Do you use your tagine? My husband gave me a beautiful one years ago and it‘s become an ornament. 😏 Maybe this will inspire me to use it! 3y
BarbaraBB @Tamra Yes, quite often! I love the (North) African kitchen and it is so easy cooking with a spectacular effect 😉😀 3y
