pickOne of the best books about book people. A great comfort read. Funny, sad, and yes, a bit saccharine too. I needed a book about good humans.

pickI have no idea why this took me so long to read. I listened to the audio to get the physical book off my self 😂 The audio was great. Engaging and intriguing. I lost focus in a few parts where the text wandered a bit, but overall absolutely lovely. Here‘s to breaking out of a slump!
pickNot what I was expecting but I enjoyed the mystery clues. Some of the backstory was revealed in a bit of a heavy-handed way but it was a nice summer read.

pick#roll100 plus book club read for this month. Really enjoyed this - although some pretty harrowing sections about Covid/Floyd George which made for difficult (but important) reading. I‘m looking forward to discussing this one!
Plus, first time I‘ve come across a dog in a book with the same name as mine!
This is from an email from author and biomechanist Katy Bowman, and I've verified the print and e-book numbers (https://thetechylife.com/how-much-money-does-amazon-take-from-book-sales/). Still looking for audiobook numbers as the linked article is less detailed on those. I also learned that Amazon controls 80% of book distribution in the US.
If you, like me, are alarmed by this, check out bookshop.org, libro.fm, and kobo.com for alternatives.

pickI thought this was a sweet and charming story. The relationship between Carl and the young girl reminded me of the old man and kid in Up. I really enjoyed how these two developed a unique friendship and how they tried to understand the book costumers more.

pickBook 2 in the series. A spicy romance set back in Dream Harbor. Hazel works in a bookshop and stumbles across books containing secret messages. She begins to follow the clues and asks Noah, the local fisherman to help her. The hunt finds them enjoying the summer together but what will happen if they find the treasure?
Both MCs had depth and I found I was rooting for them both. A small town, cosy mystery.
