Wonderful book about a nurse in Vietnam and her life when she returns home.

The author writes of her grief for a friend who committed suicide. Wonderfully read by the author.
Are we done yet???? 🤣

1. I am named after my Mom‘s grandfather, who I never met.
2. The tagged book from the 1960‘s. I remember finding these in the library and read them because one of the characters had my name.

Jose Gonzalez is my choice for Latin/World music. He is from Sweden, his parents are from Argentina and is an indie-folk singer/songwriter. I don‘t listen to Latin music so this is the best I‘ve got. He performs alone or as part of his band Junip. https://youtu.be/3JGB__H_Uq4?si=yIfEbArcJbmy-e2D

@Soubhiville Thank you so much for this book. I was leery to pick it up as I did not like a previous Powers book. But this one…FABULOUS. And so goes my next few days. Joy!!!
1. I just started the tagged book so right now it‘s IOWA.
2. I just wrote about this in a letter…..I visited Houston in January and then read Memorial- Bryan Washington …which took place mostly in Houston.

One of my most favorite albums….some of the best of Mark Kozelek….before he got all weird and overly “wordy”.

Visited an amazing used bookstore in Detroit. Bought one of my favorite mysteries from my youth. (Tagged book). Even met a book nerd and we discussed my book. 🙌🏻
A successful readathon. I finished all these and especially loved The Wager and Shark Heart. I also read my section of The Golden Notebook for #SundayBuddyRead. #20in4 #FabulousFebruary
@Andrew65
Ha….so much for my book ban. 🤣
Excellent story about the sea, a shipwreck, survival etc. Scurvy! Thank you so much for this wonderful gift, my friend. @dabbe
I‘m taking my cue from @TieDyeDude ….hence Rhett Miller Old 97‘s…who sang with Rachel Yamagata on Fireflies.

1. With my daughter in San Francisco while she heals from finger surgery (she broke her hand and is healing well).
2. My Golden Years - The Lemon Twigs

#MotivationalMonday @Cupcake12
Probably my least favorite of her books. But then,I am not a huge short story fan.
@Soubhiville #AuthorAMonth February
In keeping with @TieDyeDude and #TuesdayTunes I am posting Kurt Vile….also a Philly based indie band. Kurt Vile formed The War on Drugs with Adam Granduciel. Vile‘s Walking on a Pretty Daze is my favorite Kurt Vile album.
Thanks for adding some Tunes, TDD!
1. I am off to San Francisco. My daughter fell, broke 2 fingers and is having surgery to set them on Thursday.
2. Probably a love story with miserable characters…my favorite. Hence, the tagged book.
@TheSpineView #Two4Tuesday
Welcome to my friend of 40+ years @Klebet …the lovliest person and a grand reader! 🙌🏻📚
1. Always….Grateful Dead. We are strange and magnificent dancers. 🤣
2. I‘d be living next door to my grandson in Michigan.
3. Reading in my chair in an empty house….with no texts or phone calls.
#WondrousWednesday @Eggs
It‘s Tuesday but come play!
1. I have alot of Volunteer “stuff” this week. Today I will try to get Dead and Co tix for the Sphere. 🤞🏻
2. Lots of lists, a calendar and I email myself reminders.
3. My current read location is in my little library/office.
#MotivationalMonday @Cupcake12
1. I listen to alot of indie music. My friends think I‘m quirky as they don‘t usually know any of the bands I like.
2. I like to be left alone during the day. (So I can read)
3. I hate wearing socks.
***And I don‘t think I‘m quirky at all.
@dabbe #TLT
Barnes & Noble is killing it on Threads. 🙌🏻
1. The tagged book. It will be a top favorite of the year. But Starter Villain comes in second as it was so fun.
2. Florida - Lauren Groff for #AuthorAMonth
#Two4Tuesday @TheSpineView
I struggled with this one as it‘s about 2 young, early ‘20‘s”, people in Ireland, 2010. I had no patience with the “stupidity” of youth. But the second half of the book was much better as they grew up to adulthood. And it took a while to get to the incident.I loved the ending.
#LitsyToB24 @Megabooks @BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain
1. When I was little, if I got sick and was home from school, my Mom would roll in the TV with the channel changer (this was the 60‘s) and let me watch in bed. I used to think she was the greatest Mom ever.
2. I‘d like to be remembered for just being nice and kind.
3. Memorial - Bryan Washington
@Eggs #WondrousWednesday
Agree with what others have said….that you have to suspend belief a bit with this book. Kind of a shame as I like the premise but too many coincidences to me is just lazy writing.
