“The road to the tombs skirted a field of shrivelled sunflowers. An army of nodding heads on stalks, bowed and blackened, awaiting harvest. There were no houses out this way... Here & there on a hilltop, a dead oak or cypress punctuated the empty sky where hungry crows perched low.... I had come to this remote corner of Italy to research Etruscan sites.“

I couldn't let November slip by without paying homage to Harriet and her count in The Etruscan --- eggs, pomegranates, boars are all symbols of rebirth in the novel, a gothic tale set in 1922....

So #NovelNovember was an extremely productive Readathon for me. 🤩 I started it with only 5 of these #bookspinbingo books completed, and now I only have three left! I also read 30 or so comics and graphic novels this past week 🥷🏻🧟♂️🧛🏻♂️
Thank you for hosting these amazing events @Andrew65 and @TheAromaofBooks !
🦋 I loved this fictional story of a young woman‘s journey to bring her abuela‘s ashes to Mexico for Day of the Dead as it coincides w/ the monarch‘s migration there for winter.

🌳 This author incorporates environmental issues in her novels, so I will definitely be reading more by her.
🖊 I love buying used, & felt honored to add my initials to the group that read this copy. I‘ll be the last for awhile bc it‘s a keeper!

I enjoyed this story about storytelling once I stopped worrying about following the plot and instead just savoured the beautiful writing.
This was my third and final book finished for #NovelNovember. Thanks to @Andrew65 for hosting the readathon!
My #NovelNovember #readathon wrap-up:
I read 4 books and made progress in Our Violent Ends and In an Absent Dream.
I had a great time! Thank you for hosting @Andrew65
#NovelNovember readathon results
I finished 2 graphic novels, 2 novels, and 1 audiobook. I didn't get through as much as I usually do in a week but I'm slowly working out of my reading slump so I'm not mad about it. It's been nice spending more focus on other hobbies actually, I've gotten a bunch of crafting done. Letting myself slow down a bit so I have my mojo back for next month's #wintergames ☺️

How I spent my Sunday. I stayed away from social media and read the whole book in one day. I haven't done that in a few years. It was the perfect light frothy romance I needed and I loved it. I'll be sure to read the next two. Another 329 pages for #NovelNovember for a total of 681 of my 700-page goal. Also #Frenemies for #Booked2021 @Andrew65 @Cinfhen @BarbaraTheBibliophage @4thhouseontheleft

Somehow, I was able to stick to my TBR goals by first finishing off 2 open books, followed by some reading (%⬆️) in all of my other currently open reads, followed up with both a digital and audiobook #ImpulseReads
