I finished The Lake House for #AuthorAMonth and read half of my #TBRTarot book…We Are The Brennans (a good dysfunctional family story). A successful readathon for me!

Thanks @Andrew65 #20in4Readathon

Andrew65 I‘m just over halfway through. Well done 🎄🎄🎄 5d

A Town Called Solace | Mary Lawson

I really enjoyed this gentle novel. Set in a rural northern town in Canada in 1972, it‘s told from three perspectives: 7 year old Clara, whose teenage sister has run away from home, Elizabeth, Clara‘s elderly neighbor who is in the hospital, and Liam, a mysterious young man from Elizabeth‘s past. Comparisons to Anne Tyler are apt, IMO.

My 2nd #10beforetheend book and #TBRtarot for December.

jlhammar Loved this book. And Crow Lake. Look forward to reading her others. 7d
Ruthiella @jlhammar I didn‘t realize she was only published late in life-so far just four books. Makes it easy to be a completist at least! 7d

Small Mercies | Dennis Lehane

Pickpick

Mary Pat is the antihero in this book which shows Boston at its ugliest in the early 70s. With nothing less to lose she starts looking for the truth in a world filled with racism, hate, drugs and corruption. Although funny at times it‘s mostly sad. The explanation of the title however, felt like a little light in a dark read.

My options for December's #tbrtarot --- author surname starting with L. I've started three of these, furthest into the David Lindsey.

FRIENDS! Where did the year go? I‘m a bit baffled that it‘s now December. Anyway, here is our #TBRtarot card for the month - and if you had to think about what a surname is, it‘s a last name (I had to ask my husband to be sure 😂 Anyway, have fun!

A soft pick, but I think it‘s still worth the time since it‘s one of the first detective novels. I kept thinking I had it right, then I got super duper confused, then it turned out I *was* right…mostly…Anyway, it‘s a ride, for sure. They got paid by the word at this point, and it was published serially, so take that into account. Also, Wilkie‘s mom died while he was writing this and it affected the narrative. 237/1,001 #1001Books #TBRTarot

dabbe I liked this one, but I LOVED THE WOMAN IN WHITE. 🩵❄️🩵 1w
batsy I liked this quite a bit, but it does have a bit of an episodic feel (and confusion) to it. 1w
AshleyHoss820 @dabbe I‘m excited to read that one!! 1w

AshleyHoss820 @batsy We all felt the same way. Collins had a LOT going on in his personal life, plus the serial nature where he was just writing off a section to meet deadlines meant he wasn‘t super consistent and had painted himself into a corner more than once. 😂 We read the Oxford World Classic edition and it had a lot of info in the notes section! ☺️ 1w
