My nightly reminder to take a break and pet Dexter 🐶

This is a travelogue with commentary about America in the 1960s and a poodle sidekick. I sensed the goal was to find something profound through the people met and adventures had on the way, but I think his search was unsuccessful. It was still an interesting trip with some glimpses of what he was looking for. And the dog doesn‘t die at the end so I‘m just thankful Steinbeck didn‘t wreck me with another one of his stories.

4✨ I was able to sneak one more into June‘s completed books! I gushed about this one to my husband. I‘ve had this on my shelves for over 10+ years, and the title is what drew me originally. However, as I read this I discovered an amazing story about finding your person, and not losing yourself in the process. Each boyfriend may have had a dog that connected them, but the lessons she learned about dating and herself are what make this book.
My dog Latte faithfully guarding the ghosts in this haunting Bluebeard retelling about domestic violence that stops you from asking the age-old question of, "Why didn't you leave?" It was a compelling if difficult read that was only palatable because it was told in fable form. It was beautifully written and hard to take.
The dedication reads, "for all of us who got out and for all of us who didn't."

Reading this backlist book waiting for her newest. I like supporting independent bookstores by ordering from bookshop.org. , but I hate that it takes a week after the book has been released before I receive the book. Waiting for #TheStolenLifeOfColletteMarceau. is like #WaitingForGodot

DNF- I‘m pretty sure I inherited this one at some point so put it on my #Roll100 list. We have 4 women that had a falling out and went their separate ways. I liked Maria and was concerned about Alexa and the love triangle she was making. I was also interested in Jessica. I just couldn‘t get into it and when Alexa got to Paris I was disappointed in her actions. Unhauling. #DogsofLitsy “Tess”

So, the #haikuhive got me into these things 🙈 If it's okay, I would like to join you officially.

I love it when a book coincides with the real-life date when I'm reading it.
Bonus: sleeping Watson and our weird eyeball throw.
