The name! 😻😻😻

The blurbs were not selling me but my book club picked this. I‘m absolutely loving it and should have realized any new Ann Patchett novel is worth my time. Also I have type 1 diabetes and so does one of the main characters. That‘s usually enough to turn me off a story but it‘s treated (so far) very well. 🎉🎉🎉

Any Scandinavian crime novel recommendations? This isn‘t doing it for me - I usually love this genre but the language in this one (esp. regarding race) was jarring and not kind in my 2020 eyes.

So far I‘m loving this - such a fun voice and the setting/time is perfect for me. Hope it keeps up!

My stats for 2019. I set a lower reading goal than normal and still didn't make it. 😹😹😹 Overall though, I'm happy with the variety I read and looking forward to the New Year. I plan on tracking my books in my printed planner. How low-tech! I'll still probably update Goodreads, though, as it makes for nice graphics (and easy counting). Have a wonderful New Year!

My favorite books that I read in 2019. Can‘t believe it‘s almost the new year! Here‘s to many many more books in 2020.

Love these Penguin Christmas editions. I have a collection of Trollope stories in this series that are funny and heartwarming. This collection is very moralistic but lovely, readable Christmas classics. Have a wonderful holiday, everyone! #merrychristmas

Our #Jolabokaflod - all titles from a local publisher, the University of Minnesota press. Happy Christmas Eve to those who celebrate, may you get time to read to your heart‘s delight 🎄 🎄 📚

Over 2000 holds on this title when I requested it from the library in July. Didn‘t think it‘d see it this year but hear we are. Impressed with my public library system (as usual) 🙏 here‘s hoping I like this as much as everyone else! #libraryreads

I‘ll be honest: most of my photos will likely involve my book, a cat, and my bed. 👍 Also it‘s the time of year when all my library holds appear and I‘m stressed out by where to begin. I chose this one because it takes place in Barbados and I‘m perpetually cold now so could use the escape. Let‘s do this. #historicalfiction #libraryreads

Back to nonfiction bedtime reading! This guy is happy for it. This is the first of many 19th Amendment books in my queue. I should probably mix it up a bit but I like voting so here we go. 🚀 🚀 🚀

Bedtime reads in my house tonight! Guess which one has murder.
