BarbaraTheBibliophage
The Broken Girls | Simone St James

Pickpick

In a month with anniversaries of deceased loved ones, it‘s fitting I should read a book about ghosts. For me, haunting is when everyday actions bring constant reminders of loved ones you can no longer see in the flesh. St. James‘ characters, especially Fiona, are haunted much like this—and worse. I would definitely read another mystery from Simone St. James.

I found this audiobook on Scribd! So far the narrator and story are good. It‘s been on my shelf (#BOTM selection) for months also. The love it‘s getting from Littens is motivating me. Plus it works for either #scaryread or #setinschool (I need both!) for #booked2018.

We are so close to the end of September (seriously, where does the time go???), and I thought I would post my #Booked2018 round up 👍

#BlameItOnLitsy - Lolly Willowes
#JapaneseThriller - Six Four
#LGBTQIA - Everything Under
#DiverseNonFic - Not That Bad
#BeachRead - This is Where I Leave You
#SetInSchool - The Name of the Wind

I only have one book planned for next quarter (spooky read), so I really need to start planning!

Cinfhen Love the photo ~ great assortment of choices and I also loved @avgeyer 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage Hey, awesome round up!! BTW, you tagged another person who name starts like mine does. Might want to switch it so she isn‘t confused! 🤪 6y

Kalalalatja @BarbaraTheBibliophage I hadn‘t noticed! Thanks for the heads up 😅 the tagging is acting up for me at the moment, so I make all kinds of mistakes 👎 6y
Kalalalatja @avgeyer @Cinfhen it was so much fun! 👍 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage @Kalalalatja Litsy is sooo inconsistent right now. Frustrating! 6y
ferskner OH MY GOSH I love how you used Pic Collage for this. Why have I never thought to add a cover like that?? 6y
Mdargusch Great job! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 6y
Kalalalatja @ferskner I just thought of it as well! But now we finally have a way of adding covers of books from the library/audio/ebooks, that still looks pretty neat 👌 6y
Kalalalatja @Mdargusch thank you! ☺️ 6y

This was such a fun read! Historical romance and mystery for the YA audience. Stranje House is a finishing school unlike any other Georgiana Fitzwilliam has ever heard of. Full of unusual girls and even more unusual teachings. And with her knack for inventions and experiments, Georgie might just fit in.

Matilda is one of my favorite books from childhood. It was wonderful to share it with my son. Matilda is a 5 year old genius, who spends her time reading classic novels. She is unappreciated by her awful parents who disdain books and reading. When she begins kindergarten Matilda finds an ally in her teacher miss honey and using powers she discovers in school takes on the evil head teacher Miss Trunchbull. Loved! #booked2018 #setinschool

Tanisha_A My favourite too! 😀 6y
BiblioLitten I can re-read this one countless times! 😘 6y
Blaire @Tanisha_A @BiblioLitten the absolute best! 6y
Cinfhen Sorry I missed this post - great pick 😘 6y

Caleb's Crossing: A Novel | Geraldine Brooks

Set in mid 17th century New England (Martha‘s Vineyard and Harvard University)Bethia, a settler from England befriends a Native American boy, Caleb,son of the leader of the local tribe. Based on a true story, this slow, beautiful tale of their relationship and their paths to an education. My favorite type of book. One where I am fully invested in the characters and place. History, the plight of “the other” and Love. #booked2018 #setinschool

Cinfhen Can‘t wait to get to this one!! I just read and loved this book by her 6y
DivineDiana @Cinfhen This was my first book by her, but definitely not the last! I have Year of Wonders on my #TBR shelves! Hope to get to it soon! 6y
Cinfhen And don‘t forget 6y
DivineDiana @Cinfhen I won‘t! 😀📚👍🏻 6y

I almost bailed on this early because something about the writing style was bugging me but it must have gotten better because i really enjoyed this. That cliffhanger ending was really not fair though! #booked2018 #setinschool

alisiakae I‘m glad you ended up enjoying it! 6y
TheFunkyBookworm Yes that cliffhanger 😱😱😱😱 I NEED the next one to come out!! 6y
Pamwurtzler @TheFunkyBookworm I know! I think I read that the next book would be out in January. 6y
Cinfhen Oooh, my interest has been peaked 🤗 6y
BarbaraTheBibliophage Yay—another prompt completed! 6y

Book 14 of #MountTBR - @Heatherfeather sent this to me in a swap. I‘m so glad she did because I probably I wouldn‘t have picked it up on my own. I especially enjoyed the frank talk about sex and double standards between the girls and the female bonding. #setinschool #booked2018

Thank you, Heather!💗

Cinfhen How fabulous!! I love when Littens introduce us to a new author/ book 🙌🏻 6y
