First book for August. Delightful. I‘ve always enjoyed her stories. It was perfect for this stormy weekend. An older woman finding herself and realising she has choices and it‘s never too late. ❤️❤️

My second Anne Tyler this month. I seem to be in the mood for well-written observations on normal life. Micah is a quiet, well-mannered IT expert/apartment block caretaker who maintains routines in his everyday life almost to the point of obsession, until events throw the routines off track. It‘s a gentle, character-driven short novel and I adored it.

TheEllieMo @sherrisilvera I read French Braid last year and thought it was so-so, but I‘ve really enjoyed both this one and Three Days In June, so I think I just can‘t have been in the right frame of mind last year. 2mo

Baltimore Blues | Laura Lippman

so-so

The first of a series I‘d liked to try after @Bookwormjillk posted about it and I enjoyed another book by Laura Lippmann. I am not sure if I will continue though. So many characters in this book, I couldn‘t keep track. And the plot was, well, okayish I think.

Bookwormjillk It probably helps that I live 45 minutes from Baltimore. 2mo

Susanita Yes, it‘s very Baltimore. The series gets more steady as Tess figures out what the heck she‘s doing as a PI. 2mo
