I first discovered Josie Silver through the #SundayBuddyRead and loved her ever since. Her latest book, A Winter In New York was my favourite book for #June for #12Booksof2023, absolutely loved the story and the characters in this one. A must read.
Also loved A Dangerous Place by Jacqueline Winspear, which was my other 5 star book during June.

I‘ve moved away from WWII a bit, especially fiction, but since my dad recommended it I had to read it. I am so glad I did. The story of a young girl evacuated to the US, a perspective I hadn‘t read before.

This one is weird and gross and I love it so much, lol. I probably only know one person I could recommend it to and he read it before me. 😉
I discovered Davis‘ historical fiction a few years ago when I read The Chelsea Girls. She is quickly becoming a go-to author for me. I love her connection to a NYC landmark, her development of a story that surrounds that landmark, and her inclusion of historical facts and impressions of the building.
This one, which was a #LiteraryCrew read, looks at the old art school in the Grand Central terminal. So good! #12BooksOf2023 #June
Ok, this is my check-in for both
The latest #20in4 #readathon that I failed miserably😅
2hrs20min reading time in those 4 days? Even for me and even given the fact that I had zero free time the first 2 days, that's not much. I guess I was just not in a reading mood🤷♀️

#WickedWords - As I just joined this month, I try to complete all monthly words for 2023. So far, I have completed #January #February & #March and just found Disney for #June 🥳
I read more this month than any other this year so far, and it was 86% LGBTQ+ books! The Salt Grows Heavy and Iron Widow are probably tied for my favorites of the month.

pickContinuing with my theme of reading only LGBTQ+ books this month, I finished this one and its heartbreaking. I loved the gradual build of Red and Blue‘s relationship as much as I loved the ease of the sci-fi and the beauty of the writing.
