“Meherya.” My children say my name again, and the sound of it drops me to my knees. “Meherya.”
Beloved.

My staycation started after work today. So I found all the books I want to read
I own the books on the left and that‘s 19 books
On the right are my prioritized library books and that‘s 10 books. I currently has 23 books out
So for 23 days off work, I got 29 books, needless to say I won‘t get to everyone
This doesn‘t include my current reads (A Flat Place & Caledonian Road) or buddy reads (Nancy Drew, Shardlake & Sherlock Holmes)
pickThis was such a cute and heartwarming read!
The story is told in dual timelines, one set in 1987 and the other in the 1930s/1940s. The dual timelines was executed well.
As for the characters, I loved the three main characters, Harlow, Matt, and Tuesday. Harlow was my favorite. I enjoyed seeing her character grow and take charge of her life.

pickThis book has the same cozy and heartwarming vibes as its predecessor. There‘s lots of discussion on reading and books which I loved. As a huge bibliophile, I related a lot to those parts. The book also has a strong emotional core, especially in the second half.

pickI am such a huge Disney Descendants fan (I‘ve seen all the movies and have read all the books in this series) and this book made me so excited for the new movie.
We are introduced to Red, the daughter of the Queen of Hearts. I loved her. She is so different from the VKs in the sense that she isn‘t trying to be evil or wicked.

pickFirst off, this book is hilarious. It‘s very satirical and pokes a lot of fun at own society. Parts of the story were reminiscent of the pandemic and how some political leaders and society handled it. I found it very clever. One of the funniest parts of the book was ogre speak, which was essentially really foul and rude language.

pickFirst off, Colin calls Penelope “the most remarkable woman in the world” (pg. 423). I whole heartedly agree. The fact that she was Lady Whistledown for 10 years is impressive. What a smart woman!
I liked Penelope and Colin together. The fact that they were both writers was really cute.
