Gods of Jade and Shadow | Silvia Moreno-Garcia

Hoping I can finish this later today. I have about 18% left of it. So far it's been a fun ride.

In this fabulous graphic memoir, Pedro Martín recounts the time when he was 12 and his entire family—including 8 siblings—travelled in a motorhome from California to the Mexican state of Jalisco in order to bring his grandfather home to live with them. Adventures, misadventures, and poignant scenes too. I loved it. #MiddleGrade #comics for all ages.

CatLass007 The cover art for Council of Dolls is beautiful. I read the book description and it sounds intriguing. A new author for me to check out. 2d

I can't remember how I learned about this book, but it's just my cup of tea. An epic, car-free journey following the migratory loop of the monarch butterfly, undertaken to raise awareness about conservation and habitat loss with commentary about community and culture and privilege... it's like the many thru-hiking books I've enjoyed just with a purpose broader than self-discovery. And on a bike. I'll definitely be gifting some copies of this one.

A little bittersweet to work this puzzle while listening to Xe Sands tell Sara Dykman's story of biking thousands of miles to raise awareness about the North American monarch migration and conservation in general. I'll review the book once I finish it...and then I'll see if my landlord will let me plant a patch of native milkweed and other butterfly-supporting plants in the tiny yard.

A moving, funny, interesting graphic memoir. The illustrations were a bit busy for me but I am not a big graphics reader.

At first I really didn‘t care much for the characters in Velvet was the Night but as the story progressed I found myself engrossed in this tale! A good historic fiction-ish mystery read.

I really enjoyed this book! The author's use of "Caravaggio" as a descriptor created a vivid and immersive atmosphere. Reminds me of my times in Mexico growing up. ??

Author is #POC

Might be able to finish this one during my #HyggeHour. Just got everything ready, mostly documents, for my first day of work tomorrow. I haven't worked since November 30th, so hopefully, orientation will go well.

I'm going to read in bed under my heated blankets with my babies adding some weight to my legs 🩷💜🐶🦞
