#5JoysFriday!
1. At my husband‘s jazz concert on Sunday, his combo performed a piece from Fallout especially for a dear friend‘s son who attended that evening. Seeing his joy over the dedication gave ME such joy!
2. Had a delightful and encouraging lunch with a friend on Wednesday to celebrate my admission to the Spiritual Direction program I‘m starting in August—and she brought me flowers!
3. Reading Anne this week is bringing me SO MUCH joy!!⤵️

Outdoor reading with patio lights & beer. This stout tasted eerily similar to the Tiger Malt I drank the other day. It was possibly the sweetest beer I‘ve ever had, which made it decidedly not to my tastes, and at 10.5% it was considerably stronger than most of what I drink. Not a win, alas.

Reread‘s still good, but I MIGHT pause soon to read something shorter. We shall see how I feel after the extremely strong beer wears off.

Went swimming with my son and his friend. After an hour I was done and they wanted to stay. So I downloaded this book and read it over the next 3 hours while they had fun. It was entertaining and I really enjoyed that little slice of free time to just read in peace!

The love of books seen throughout this manga was amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed the story. I was a little unsure at first because it had a lot of explanation for things that I felt was a little unnecessary, but it didn't take too much from the story. I really can't wait to see where this goes next.

Amazing story of the prejudice and injustice that faced black men and women in America's armed forces during World War II. Setting is July 1944 at Port Chicago on the California coast. They were disrespected, segregation, forced to use dangerous equipment, and prosecuted with a charge of mutiny punishable by death…

Mimi28 Not really related but kinda- my mom was born in August of 1944 in Chicago. We are preparing to celebrate her 80th birthday. Her mom would have been 99 yesterday 🙏🏽😊🩷How are you doing? I will be sending you a letter soon 2h

This was my #BookSpin for this month, and I finished it with mere days to spare. With over 600 pages, I'm a little surprised at how quickly I flew through this book, but then again, it was awesome and didn't feel like 600+ pages. I need to get the final book, Obsidio NOW #SciFiSummer

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

When I first read this book many years ago, I absolutely loved the story, characters, and humor. I still feel the same after reading this for the second time, however it did lose a little bit of its magic after the initial read. Regardless, I still really enjoy this book and look forward to watching the new television series based off of it!
