I can‘t believe it‘s time for May‘s #bookspin list already! Where has the year gone?

Here is yet another “slice of my bookshelves”, plus a few options for my topic bookclub: May‘s topic is a book with a map. And Advice for Future Corpses is for another bookclub.

What will @TheAromaofBooks choose for us this time?

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 1w

I‘m continuing my 2025 #bookspin “slices of my bookshelves” journey with yellow and green spines on my paperback and hardcover fiction shelves and just 2 greenish nonfiction. What will @TheAromaofBooks pull for our April numbers?

I will definitely be reading The Bees for my bookclub.

AmyG Omg…it‘s almost April already. What? 1mo

TheAromaofBooks I'm pretending it isn't almost April 😂 1mo

Kingdom of Slumber: A Retelling of Sleeping Beauty | Deborah Grace White

so-so

3✨ This was an interesting retelling of the classic Sleeping Beauty story. It displayed the princess awake when the kingdom was asleep, and vise versa. Because of the curse they cannot communicate even with notes on paper. Plus the princess was actually protecting them while they slept. Read for #FairyTaleRetellingChallenge @Charityann

Continuing with my #bookspin trend for the year, here is part of the blue paperback section of my TBR shelves. I will definitely be reading Shadow and Bone for #AuthorAMonth and Last Rites for bookclub. What else will @TheAromaofBooks pull out for me?

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!!! 2mo

AmyG So, my last letter to you came back to me even though I had the correct address. I am sending it back to you with another letter. I didn‘t forget you. 😘 2mo

Soubhiville @AmyG That‘s strange, but even the post office makes mistakes sometimes. How are you feeling? Fully recovered yet? 2mo

AmyG Yes, sometimes a letter slips through 🤷‍♀️. And…feeling pretty good. Cough is better but not yet gone. 2mo

AmyG Tha k you for asking. 2mo

I felt their children and grandchildren, eager to meet me and see if I was as interesting as their parents had said.
And I felt my Yashaa, bearded and wrinkled, when he pressed his lips to mine.
