Awwww, this was such a sweet book🫶🏼 Inspired by a true story! The friendship between a young girl, a dog, a silverback gorilla and a baby elephant. My choice for #52Books23 #NewberryWinner EXCELLENT audio narration 🎧♥️🥇I‘m definitely reading the next book….#ReturnOfSappyCindy

Librarybelle Yay! ❤️❤️❤️ 1y
Gissy Beautiful story❤️ 1y
Cinfhen It REALLY was @Gissy - it‘s wonderful @Librarybelle 1y
KarenUK Your hashtags always make me smile 😊! Middle grade is always a nice change of pace…. 💕 1y
Cinfhen Thanks @KarenUK xxxx 1y
BarbaraBB Another #sappyCin! Good for you 💕 1y
Cinfhen Yup @BarbaraBB as I‘m really just putting off getting back to 1y
BarbaraBB Lol I understand 💯 1y
Megabooks 💜 #sappyCindy! I started Women this morning, but I‘m also finishing this short story collection @BarbaraBB 1y
BarbaraBB @Megabooks Another Wilson! Are his short stories as bizarre as his novels? 1y
Megabooks @BarbaraBB yes! Most of these were written around the time he was in college, and they are so impressive for that age or really any one but they have a youthful perspective. (Plus he and I are roughly the same age and grew up in the same region so I find them nostalgic as well.) now I‘ve read all his books, which is a bit sad because of the wait for a new one! I preferred this to his newer collection. 1y
Cinfhen Wilson definitely has a unique writing style!! I read this collection but it was just too odd for me @BarbaraBB plus I‘m not a fan of short stories- but there‘s no denying his talent @Megabooks 1y
Cinfhen I‘ll be watching for your review of #FlyingWomen @Megabooks 😉I think @BarbaraBB will be curious too😅 1y
BarbaraBB I am and I have a hunch 😂 @Megabooks (edited) 1y
BarbaraBB @Megabooks I still have Panic on my shelves. Looking forward to that one too! 1y
Cinfhen The struggle is real @BarbaraBB 1y
Cinfhen I really liked Panic @BarbaraBB @Megabooks it wasn‘t as 🍌👖as some of his other stories 1y
Megabooks @Cinfhen @BarbaraBB at 15% I think I‘m going to #allhailthebail on Women. The music therapy has given me an awful headache when I look at screens (squinting my eyes just to write this), and I wasn‘t enjoying it enough for how troublesome it is. Tbqh the whole plot was silly and far-fetched. The blurb sounded good but the execution is waaaayyy sub par. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️ 1y
BarbaraBB @Megabooks You are so right about bailing, the books is ridiculous and silly indeed. Take some rest after the music therapy ❤️ 1y
Cinfhen I was going to email both of you @Megabooks @BarbaraBB but I‘ve gotten hooked on a Netflix series and it‘s CONSUMING me - anyhow Flying is SO BAD!!! I‘m on page 152 and I just can‘t go on!!! I will, but yikes 😳 don‘t feel bad at all, Meg. Hope the MT starts to work it‘s magic 🪄 1y

IndoorDame Awesome! Looking forward to it!! 2y
AllDebooks Great, it's in the diary 😀 2y
jenniferw88 @BarbaraBB @Cinfhen I'm going to give it a go - it's just the comparison to Atwood and Butler I'm concerned about as I didn't like The Handmaid's Tale and bailed on Oryx and Crake. I tried reading Kindred earlier this year and bailed on with that one too! I have, however, enjoyed Shirley Jackson 🤣😊 2y
Soubhiville Oooo, can I join in? 2y
squirrelbrain Looking forward to it! 😀 2y
TheBookHippie @jenniferw88 HERE WE GO AGAIN! Out of our comfort zone preferred genre read😅 I have reservations as well 🫣 I‘m gonna try it! 2y

Deblovestoread Looking forward to it! 2y
Librarybelle Sounds good!! 2y
julieclair I‘m in! I would never pick this book up on my own. But if @TheBookHippie and @jenniferw88 are brave enough to give it a go, then I am, too. That‘s one of the many reasons I love Litsy… it stretches and challenges me! 1y
TheBookHippie @julieclair We are in this together!!! 😵‍💫😂😅 1y
BarbaraBB @julieclair What @TheBookHippie says, we‘re in this together! We are happy you‘re joining! 1y
