Much Ado About Nada | Uzma Jalaluddin

I was out running errands and popped into Dollar Tree because I remembered that I needed super glue. I checked the book aisle, saw they restocked, grabbed as *much* as I could carry, ran into a former student and awkwardly chatted while my face was partially obscured by a towering book stack that kept getting heavier, aaand then proceeded to leave the store without super glue. 🤦🏼‍♀️ But look at this awesome stack for $20!!

AmyG Wow! 4d

Bookwormjillk Nice! I loved Flying Solo. 4d

Belle Greene | Alexandra Lapierre

I‘ve had this book on Kindle for months, way back when it was the last book for #EuropaCollective. Finally got around to it! A very interesting story about Belle Greene who became the chief librarian for J.P. Morgan in the early 1900s, all while passing as “white” even though her parents were descended from slaves. It‘s amazing how far we‘ve come from when having a single drop of black blood disqualified someone from so much.

Tamra I think about the Morgan family & Belle and the tragedy of her nephew not infrequently. 2mo

BarbaraBB I‘ll bump it up my TBR. I‘ve got a copy for #EuropaCollective as well. We should bring that reading club to live again! 2mo

Lesliereadsalot You have so much going on already! On one hand, I found every book we read from Europa to be interesting and valuable. On the other hand, I‘m not too good with having to be “responsible” for reading something. If you want to try to bring #EuropaCollective back to life together, I‘ll give it a shot. What do you think @BarbaraBB ??? 2mo

Lesliereadsalot Yes, very sad and I can‘t stop thinking about it either. @Tamra 2mo

BarbaraBB I‘d like that. We could check out if the former participants are interested and then maybe start again in the fall (after camp)? (edited) 2mo

Tamra @BarbaraBB @Lesliereadsalot yes! I really enjoyed the Europa reads! 😁 2mo

BarbaraBB @Tamra That‘s so good to know! We can revive it! 2mo

Lesliereadsalot OK, I‘m in! Let‘s talk about it after camp. I‘ll work on getting the former participants list together over the summer. 🩷. @BarbaraBB 2mo

BarbaraBB Great ❤️🧡🤍 2mo

tpixie @BarbaraBB @Lesliereadsalot @Tamra I wrote a post last month or so about reading a #EuropaCollective in June. I better post it now so people can get the book! 📕 it‘s by the author of The Postcard- written with her sister- about another grandmother

The JP Morgan library celebrating 100 years and giving due credit to Belle. 😄 Gorgeous collection - hope to see it someday.

tpixie Great book! Love the photo. Thanks for the link. I hope to visit The Morgan Library & The Frick Mansion someday. I‘ve already been to NYC 3 times though- not since the ‘80‘s though, so I don‘t know if it‘s beat other cities…. 2mo
