My next audiobook for #authoramonth @Soubhiville
I read Are You There God… when I was much closer to the demographic target, so this looked like an interesting change of pace. I snapped it up when it was offered in my free cycle group.
It was a compelling story of coming of age amidst tragedy. For the most part I was pulled along and wanted to know how the story turned out, but some of the plot verged melodrama with characters that got on my nerves. #authoramonth
Ballgame on TV, leftovers for dinner, and a compelling story for #hyggehourreadathon
pickWell written and well researched, filled with facts and true stories, this historical fiction novel is steeped in a strong sense of time and place. I loved it! Palisades Amusement Park in New Jersey no longer exists, but it comes to life in rich detail in this story. The main character‘s pursuit of a daring career in an age where women were not encouraged to do such things deftly ties the book‘s many narratives together.
#ReadOrDonate for July
My July choice for #ReadOrDonate is Palisades Park, historical fiction about a legendary amusement park near where I grew up in New Jersey. What will everyone else be reading and/or donating?

My husband always makes me giggle. 🤣🤣🤣 This has inspired further writing, though.

pickA novel that is somewhat based on the unlikely events of three plane crashes in New Jersey in the same small town. The characters are all like able. I liked them. The story plot takes the characters from young ages to decades later. 3.75/5⭐️

pickThis is an example of how different my reading tastes are. The first three Goodreads reviews are two stars, but I loved this book. I was immediately drawn in by the story and characters. I loved the lyrical writing and setting and cried several times. I thought the last reveal appeared too fast, but my heart was taken by this book.
This is a first for me. All five #WickedWords were in one book.
This book is also a #Roll100 #readyourebooks & #SeriesLove2025 title.
But, I still don‘t know the movie these five words describe. 🤔
