This one seems to get mixed reviews, but I ended up kind of loving it. I listened to the audio production and thought the multiple narrators brought the interview format to life. I even teared up at the end. #Booked2019 #FeaturesAMusician #LLB19 #aBOTMpick

Read in April.

Bookzombie @BarbaraTheBibliophage @4thhouseontheleft @Cinfhen Hi! This is a late post from last quarter. I just wanted to let you know so you don‘t count in a giveaway. I have a few more of these to post. 😬 5y
Cinfhen Thanks for the heads up!! I wish I would have listened to this audio!! I think I would have liked it more than I did in print ( which was only so-so for me) 5y
Dragon I agree the actors really added to the audiobook 👍😀🐉 5y

I really enjoyed this one! The entire book is written in an interview format (who the interviewer turns out to be was a nice little twist) and it reads as if it‘s an episode of Behind The Music. I think the author did a nice job of capturing the sex, drugs, and rock ‘n‘ roll mentality of the 70s.

What an amazing book! Just the thing to liven up my crappy week(throat infection needing IV antibiotics. Hospital. Yay🙄), this gorgeous signed edition It‘s the story of Circe, goddess daughter of Helios the Sun God & Perse daughter of Oceanus. Unloved & unwanted she turns her back on the gods to become a witch. A story that just flows with magic & wonder. 10⭐️ #MountTBR2019 #Bk5 #LitsyAtoZ2019 #LetterC #LittenLoveBingo #LLB19 #aBOTMpick

TrishB Hope you‘re on the mend. 5y
BookBoggart Got about a 100 pages left. Kinda milking it a bit cause once I start I'll be done. 😅 5y
Lizpixie @trishb slowly, I‘m on oral antibiotics at home now but still blah. My lymph nodes feel like they‘re being stabbed repeatedly🤒 5y

Lizpixie @BookBoggart I know how you feel! I just read Song Of Achilles before this, now there‘s no more Madeline books to read. I hope she writes more soon, there‘s so many Greek myths to be retold, I‘d love to hear Paris‘s story or Heracles. Or the story of Artemis & Orion.🦌✨🏹 (edited) 5y
Erofan Beautiful picture! 5y
CarolynM Sorry to hear you've been ill. Hope things are looking up now💐 5y

Got to Chapter 7 in this novel, I‘ve finally realised that reading with a magnifying glass is much worse than forking out over $700 for new glasses.🤓 This is for #MountTBR2019 #MtKilimanjaro #Bk5 #LitsyAtoZ2019 #LetterC & #LitsyLoveBingo #LLB19 #aBOTMpick

MelissaSue81 $700 for new glasses?! Yikes. Look into zenni optical! I got mine for $7! But I have a very basic presicription. 5y
Linsy Gorgeous cover! 5y
JaclynW What a lovely cover! 😍 5y

TheLibrarian I agree with @MelissaSue81 - try Zenni. My eye prescription is pretty bad and it forces me to get the highest index lenses, but they were still only $75, plus $25 for frames. Cheaper than using my insurance. 5y
BookishMarginalia What a gorgeous edition! 5y
rather_be_reading gorgeous! 5y
minkyb I wear progressive lenses and they are ridiculously expensive even using online discount sites. It is quite depressing. 5y
