My April pick for #12BooksOf2025

This one had so much hype and it lived up to it! Beautiful writing and wonderful characters!

Thank you for hosting @TheEllieMo

TheEllieMo I think the hype put me off this one a bit, it‘s been on my TBR pile since it was released… 1w

Last night a former student and his wife came for dinner and we discussed Stoner, our first bookclub of three. (We are already planning another meeting in the summer when they come home again.) I really enjoyed this book, a quiet story of one man‘s life which is changed when he takes a college English course. Academia, a failed marriage, an affair, and always an abiding love for the written word. It‘s a great book that we all loved.

Amiable Love this book! 2w
BarbaraBB Such a good book 2w

#TTT @dabbe #takethreethursday

I guessed on a few, so I'm thrilled with my score! Three of my favorite holiday songs:
1. “Christmastime is Here“: not from a movie, but a tv show--the best holiday one ever! (A CHARLIE BROWN CHRISTMAS, of course!)
2. “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas“: written for the movie MEET ME IN ST. LOUIS and sung by the incomparable Judy Garland.
3. “Silver and Gold“ by Burl Ives: another tv show (RUDOLPH).

rubyslippersreads I ❤️ Judy‘s version of this song, with the more melancholy lyrics than newer versions. 4w
dabbe @rubyslippersreads Oh, me, too. I weep every time I watch her sing it to Tootie. 😭 4w
shortsarahrose @rubyslippersreads Completely agree - Judy‘s version is the best and the original lyrics are superior! 4w
kspenmoll Ho ho ho. I scored a dismal 30%! 4w
dabbe @kspenmoll Time to watch some holiday movies with soundtracks! 🤣 Thanks for playing and sharing. ♥️💙💚 4w

Tending Roses | Lisa Wingate
Pickpick

Another book full of love and feelings. I love the stories Lisa Wingate writes. The main message I took from this novel is to take the time to “stop and smell the roses” in our lives. Find contentment in what you have not trying to reach for happiness in things. I gave it 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Happy 🎃 Halloween

I am bailing on this; the mood/tone and impending sense of doom has me scrambling for air and sunshine. I did an internet search for spoilers so I could know what happens and now I am glad that I will stop reading this. #hailthebail #lifestooshort #timeforacozyhappybookplease ! #Oct2025 Book99

willaful #HailTheBail indeed! I hope your next read is delightful. 2mo
BarbaraBB I hated this book so I think you‘re right to bail! 2mo
