pickThis book is equal parts riveting, moving, and informative. If you want to laugh, cry, and learn a whole lot, this book is for you. It is one thing to know that trauma exists in the world, and it is another to understand just how deep it runs through society, through families, and in our brains. Unlike other literature on trauma, Dr. Bigbie's My Link To Mildred offers an actual solution that works - Nonviolent Communication. #magnificentmay
#MagnificentMay readathon round up
Forgot to post yesterday, oops. 🫣 @Andrew65
Managed some relaxing reading time, finished the tagged, a #Netgalley read, South (link in comments).
Also sneaked in The Paris apartment by Lucy Foley.
Absolutely in love with #NaturaLitsy May read The language of butterflies. Talk about a learning curve🤯 ⤴️🤯
Well #MagnificentMay didn't go so well. Panned one book and finished another. Chunks read in a couple but fell into a slump in the middle. Thanks for hosting @Andrew65

Well this picture sums up my life as a nana since my grand babies moved closer 😂 I did not finish a book for #magnificentmay , but made good progress 70% on my Gideon the Ninth audio , 51% on Lessons in Chemistry and 54% The Ashes and the Star Cursed King so not bad !
#MagnificentMay 2023 wrap-up:
Pierre Berton‘s War of 1812
✅ Walk Through Fire
✅ Testament of a Generation
Can‘t Spell Treason Without Tea
✅ Stone Blind
Pretty good considering I spent basically all weekend playing video games instead of reading 😆
so-soThis novella set in an 18th-century parliament inhabited by humans and fairies is clever, funny and satirical, but the plot and characters just didn't appeal to me all that much. I adore the cover image, though.
This was the final book I finished for the #MagnificentMay readathon. I met 5 of my 6 goals so am quite happy with the result. Thanks to @Andrew65 for hosting!

pickI couldn't believe that a true crime novel not involving murders or missing persons could be so absolutely riveting. I found it especially interesting since I've been working at a small tech company for over 20 years, and this book is essentially a guide on how NOT to run a tech business!

I actually met my goals for #MagnificentMay readathon! I finished both Tall, Dark, & Wicked and Murder with Macaroni and Cheese; plus I started and finished Tweet Cute, Friends Forever, and A Burst of Light. That‘s one more than I set for my goals. Four of the five were really good. Thanks @Andrew65 for another good boost to my reading focus.
