Nettle & Bone | T. Kingfisher
post image

#WeeklyForecast

Starting Nettle & Bond tomorrow for #AuthorAMonth. It will be my first Kingfisher so I have no idea what to expect.
Picked up The Paris Express after setting it aside early last year. So far I‘m finding it more engaging. Washington I‘m reading a few chapters a day. Liking Mob Queen and Shirley is a bit of a slog so far. Next up should be my library books for TOB26. It feels like it should be a good reading week.

One Aladdin Two Lamps | Jeanette Winterson

#GoodNewsSunday

Out January 20th is Jeanette Winterson‘s new book. I am all in because of this line “I can change the story because I am the story” I think that will be my 2026 mantra.

And in case you missed it there was a huge win for libraries last November 21 and December 3.

And the tagged book I don‘t even have words.

My 2nd book off my #AuldLangSpine list and my first 5 🌟 of 2026. Every time I think I‘m done with WWII history another book comes along with a missing piece in my knowledge and understanding.

For those participating in #BookedinTime this would be a great read for June‘s prompt LGBT History Berlin 1930‘s

#USPresidents

Just finished chapter 2. I love a map especially in history books. A couple of whoa! moments already. First, a potential ancestor connection on my mother‘s side to the Virginia Lieutenant Governor and second, Washington lived because of a bullet that missed. How different our country‘s history might have been.

My favorite of September was the tagged. Such a good read about female resistance during WWII from France before their arrests and later when they were sent to Ravensbrück. I will say that reading this history during our current political climate gave me strength to continue to speak out against our current government.

The Girls Who Grew Big | Leila Mottley
post image
Pickpick

No sophomore slump from Leila Mottley. My first finish of 2026 and the first off my #AuldLangSpine list. It is a bit of a cheat as I read about the first 3rd earlier this year and set it aside when the world felt too heavy. I needn‘t have worried. Mottley writes about young women in hard circumstances but hope shines through. I sm so grateful @ncsufoxes had this on her list. I might not have picked it back up and that would have been a shame

ncsufoxes I‘m glad that you liked it. I loved Motley‘s first book & enjoyed this one as well. She doesn‘t write about easy subjects but she has a unique way of telling difficult stories. 1d

Only a couple of chapters into the tagged but think it is going to be a great read. Got about halfway through Heartbreaks driving today. I enjoy reading a holiday themed book this time of year especially one with a different culture or religion. This one has some heavy themes but author promised an HAE in her forward. I‘m about 25% into The Passenger Seat. I‘ll read a bit more tonight but it‘s feeling like DNF is a possibility.

Alice is an ordinary kid growing into an ordinary young adult until her world begins to shift during her first year of college.

And you know it not really your thing when you finish and you are hung up on a quick reference to an unnamed Christmas movie about a father trying to buy a gift to make up for not being around the rest of the year and wondering if it‘s The Man in the Santa Claus Suit that you remember from way back when and that it had Bert Convy in it and down that rabbit hole you go.
