A book recommanded by my singing coach as i might have a little problem finding the right tune.
It's an autobiography/research history. A bit dated but interesting.

#tob crew, I am ambling through the current and former brackets and need help understanding the zombie picks 😫
How are these chosen? I see it is a poll… does everyone who participates in the poll pick their favorite from among the shortlist, and the two with the highest votes that were also eliminated in previous rounds make a comeback in the quarterfinals?
I don‘t remember those who tob, so consider yourself tagged if you like, and thanks!

With the announcement of the #ToB23 shortlist, the zombie vote and the brackets already (!) it is time to think about our alternative tournament as well. We‘ll read the shortlisted books (or most of them) and vote among our group for the same brackets as the real ToB to come up with our own winner. Who wants to join? I am tagging Littens who participated in earlier editions but everyone is welcome to join!
We read so many children‘s books in this household and never post about them…but THIS BOOK. I had to get this to fellow readers who may love it like I do 😭
I love everything about it..Beautiful illustrations, dad and son rep, the child‘s name is my son‘s name (Leo), the feelings attached to homes/dwellings. Favorite children‘s book of 2021. We‘ve read it then and again this year!
Lots of great books to take back today before Baby Storytime. All great to read to the little ones in your life.
A fondness for sunflowers...as with Little Witch Hazel, I completely adore Phoebe Whal's illustration style and her ability to insert lush botanicals into the images. Sonya's Chickens manages a colourful and kind and honest take on the circle of life. The Blue House recognizes change is a part of life and healthy expressions of grieving what is lost or outside your control.
I‘m so glad I found some affordable genmai-cha last week! It‘s delicious, and look at that glorious, unfiltered green.
I drank a cup while I finished LORD OF THE LAST HEARTBEAT. I liked the book a lot, but I sometimes found it hard to follow the magic and to sort out the characters‘ responses to their situation. That, along with some unclear worldbuilding, made it tough for me to get the full emotional impact and kept me from loving it. #gaymay
1st book finished for my library‘s community read 2022. This is a bittersweet story about loss and change, holding onto memories, and adapting to new situations. It‘s also about the pain of losing one‘s home to “progress”, the housing crisis being a central theme to this year‘s community reads program. I loved the story, but I didn‘t care for the illustrations.
