Tomorrow (Wednesday) is discussion day for this month‘s #LiteraryCrew #BuddyRead ! Zeke had his visit with the specialist today with a medical procedure to determine things tomorrow, so I will post at some point during the day—the specialist is over an hour away from me, and he has to be there early morning with a pickup time in the evening.

I will tag everyone to let you know the questions have been posted!

1. I keep a spreadsheet with all of our books and recently realized that we have over 2,000 books in our collection! That doesn‘t include audiobooks. We do have a dedicated library but it can‘t hold everything. 😳
2. The tagged novel was so good! I really enjoyed the audiobook and I‘m definitely going to read more by this author. 😉

Stupid stickers ( still in pyjamas at 4 pm but my bathrooms are clean )

Aims42 I have good success with heating the sticker up for 30 seconds with a hair dryer. It (usually) peels relatively easy or at least doesn‘t require a ton of picking 3d

Aims42 And no shame of being in pjs in the afternoon if your bathrooms are clean!! Enjoy your afternoon! 3d

mcctrish @Aims42 I‘m trying your hack right now 3d

mcctrish @Aims42 all stickers are gone but Costco‘s are the absolute worst 🤬 thank you ☺️ 2d

Aims42 @mcctrish Oh, Costco - you got the DEI thing going but work on your stickers 😆 Glad it worked!! Another litten recommended that method to me and I‘ve never tried another way since 😁 2d

A found family set in a 1950‘s DC boarding house. I enjoyed getting to know each of the characters (including the house) although I think I would have liked it more if it were based on just one character. That‘s just a personal preference though and this was a good read overall. #AuthorAMonth @Soubhiville

Karisa I just finished this book for #LiteraryCrew monthly read. I really liked it too. If only one character‘s POV, I would‘ve picked Grace or Claire. Who‘d be your pick? (edited) 2w

Bookwormjillk @Karisa Reka or Grace I think 2w

📗 I loved The Briar Club (tagged) so much! It features my favorite trope of found family and a wide array of strong, female characters. So good!

📕 I couldn‘t get through Anxious People. I just couldn‘t get into it🤷🏻‍♀️

Joining my voice to the choir singing this historical fiction book‘s praises. Sixty percent in and loving all the quirky, found family vibes of this boarding house of women circa 1950‘s DC. It‘s making me need to go watch A League of Their Own (maybe Fried Green Tomatoes) too⚾️😭💗

Librarybelle Yay!! 2w

I really enjoy Kate Quinn books and this is no exception. Set in a Washington DC boarding house during the McCarthy era 7 women, each with their own secrets, bond over weekly dinners. The audio was great but now will borrow from the library to look at the recipes from each character‘s chapter. Pic is from IG of Candlestick salad. 4.5 🌟

Look forward to discussing with #LiteraryCrew

@Librarybelle
