#ToB23 #shortlisted This was an interesting study of a family dealing/living with grief/loss.
It‘s short on action but long on character study. While this book was good, I‘m not sure why it made the shortlist🤷🏼‍♀️
This was my last book from the shortlist - looking forward to discussing with the tournament crew.

There is a lot of room for interpretation in this book and I really don‘t know what to think. The narrator is an unstable 8 year old telling about her 14 year old sister who might be demonized, her suddenly bizarre religious father, her depressed mother, an exorcism and a tv crew who makes a reality show about it.

Also there are many references and similarities with classic horror stories. I kind of enjoyed it, I think.

I read all but 18 pages yesterday; I just didn‘t want to put it down for anything! I love this series, and this is my second favorite. I worried it would rehash Mitch‘s story, but it didn‘t. Dex‘s transition from Ren Faire Lothario to credible romantic lead worked so well. This is also one of the most believable conflicts I‘ve ever found in a romance. Loved it all. #52Books #epilogue or #aboutsiblings

A light-hearted story about 2 grown-up sisters, one sister‘s sensitive son, and their aging advice-columnist mother as all their relationships with their significant others implode simultaneously. The banter between the family is witty, and it‘s a warm, lovable family unit. But the startup/influencer storyline felt a little forced. It gave me Elin Hildebrand vibes with an NYC edge…. Fun, fluffy but a bit forgettable… a light 3⭐️pick.

Eve‘s beloved husband has committed suicide leaving her reeling from grief and shock. Her large Nigerian family and a group of old & new friends step in, trying to help get her back on track.
This book was raw & heartfelt. Eve is a great character. And the reader, Adjoa Andoh was BRILLIANT 🎧🙌🏻
Would work for #52BookClub23 #AboutSiblings

HEARTBREAKING 💔 This book is beyond sad because it‘s based on true accounts. #Bolivia 1999, Francisco 17 & his sister Pilar, 12 are forced to live inside a men‘s prison when their dad is falsely incarcerated & can‘t afford to pay his way out. Their daily life & struggles are harrowing. #ReadingAmericas #TriplePlay #Booked2023 #MountainRegion #FalselyImprisoned #52BookClub #AboutSiblings #SurvivalStory

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I've been on a Rosenthal picture book kick and I love her simple, sweet and rhyming stories. This one about becoming and being a big sibling is a favorite.
