📚 Last Book Read: Brooklyn by Colm Tóibín I have mixed thoughts on this one because much of the book was slow, but the pace picked up toward the end and left me with a cliffhanger that makes me want to read the sequel. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/3f16...

📚 Last Book Read: Maybe You Should Talk to Someone by Lori Gottlieb. I cried multiple times during this memoir. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/47fa...

📚 Last Book Read: Careless People: A Cautionary Tale of Power, Greed, and Lost Idealism by Sarah Wynn-Williams. This memoir chronicles her time working at Facebook. It’s worth checking out. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/265f...

🌍 📚 Great idea! I’m a sucker for the The Lorax by Dr. Seuss. #Booksky

📚 Last Book Read: Husbands & Lovers by Beatriz Williams. This book had some interesting parts, but in other areas it was lacking. If you like romances with some historical fiction mixed in, this might be a good fit for you. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/7258...

📚 Last book read: Theo of Golden by Allen Levi. This is a slow-paced one that is sweet, but also sometimes boring. #booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/a7a5...

📚 Last book read: Lost Lambs by Madeline Cash This one was a wild ride. I definitely recommend it. My full review is on StoryGraph (linked below). #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/e520...

📚 Last Book Read: Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë. As much as I wanted to be, I wasn’t a big fan of it, but I’m still glad I read it. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/0502...

📚 Last book read: Discontent by Beatriz Serrano At under 180 pages, this is a quick, fun read. The story follows Marisa, who lives in Madrid, and absolutely detests her job as a creative strategist. My full review is on StoryGraph (linked below). #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/0200...

📚 Last Book Read: Mrs. Mohr Goes Missing This one takes place in 1893 in Kraków (at the time called Cracow), Poland. Overall, this was a solid read that’s a good fit for people who like mysteries. My full review is on StoryGraph. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/b328...

📚 Last Book Read: The Paper Daughters of Chinatown Adapted For Young Readers. I decided not to rate this one as it was an advanced reader edition and adapted for a younger audience that me. I’m curious what the original is like! #Booksky

📚 Last Book Read: Here One Moment by Liane Moriarty. This wasn’t my favorite Moriarty book (I adored Big Little Lies and The Husband’s Secret), but it was still enjoyable. My full review is on StoryGraph (linked below). #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/5eb1...

📚Last book read: The Names by Florence Knapp. It begins with Cora going to register her infant son’s name. Then, we see what would happen with if she chose different names. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/dfca...

📚 Last Book Read: The Things We Leave Unfinished by Rebecca Yarros. I loved Yarros’ book Fourth Wing and the other Empyrean series books that have been released so far. Unfortunately, this book didn’t hit the same for me as that series. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/84fb...

📲 The book I’m reading has “AS SEEN ON TIKTOK” text on the cover. I don’t know what that even means. Can we agree to not make this a thing? #Booksky

“At times, some children even tried to swipe or tap the pages like a smartphone” Research conducted by the UK charity Kindred Squared found that many young children don’t know to correctly use books. #Booksky #Education futurism.com/future-socie...

📚 Last Book Read: James by Percival Everett. This one has been getting a lot of hype, so I had to check it out. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/a5bc...

📚 Last Book Finished: Happy Place by Emily Henry. After several heavy historical fiction books, it was just what I needed. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/3cbb...

📚 Last night I finished Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus. The book stars fictional Elizabeth Zott, a chemist in the 1960s who ends up on a cooking show. I had mixed emotions about this one. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/0608...

In Utah, Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, Nineteen Minutes, and The Perks of Being a Wallflower join 19 other titles on a state-sanctioned ban list and must now be removed from all schools. Thoughts? #Booksky #bannedbooks #news bookriot.com/utah-bans-20...

I finished Taking Aim by Eva Shockey who’s known for hunting. This isn’t a book I’d have picked as I’m NOT a hunter. But it was a gift and it’s good to read books outside your comfort zone. I kept wanting her to acknowledge her privilege but she didn’t. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/884a...

📕 Today I finished The Midnight Library by Matt Haig. In this book, Nora is able to experience what her life would have been like in parallel universes by opening different books in an imagined library. Overall, I found it so-so. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/044a...

📚 I finished Nineteen Minutes by Jodie Picoult last night. This is very commonly banned book. It starts out with a school shooting and covers the nuances of bullying. It’s a solid read. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/4d91...

Based on the idea of this book vending machine, here are a few books I liked this year. 🥨Feeling salty? Some characters in Big Little Lies were rightfully salty. 🍭Feeling sweet? The Wedding People had some sweet moments. 🥵Feeling spicy? The Empyrean series has some spicy scenes. #Booksky

📚 Latest Book Read: The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid While fiction, you really felt like you were getting an authentic celebrity memoir that delivered on the juiciest secrets. My full reviews are on StoryGraph and Goodreads. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/a372...

📖 Trust librarians, not AI chatbots. #Booksky gizmodo.com/librarians-a...

📚I finished A Week in Winter by Maeve Binchy. This was a cozy read. It’s exactly the type of book you pull out when the weather is dreary. This isn’t one for people who seek fast-paced, action-packed books. Full review is on StoryGraph and Goodreads. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/0e49...

📚 Last Night I Finished Where’d You Go Bernadette by Maria Semple. This is a fun read with some crazy characters. My full review on StoryGraph is linked below. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/cdc4...

📚 I just finished Know My Name by Chanel Miller. The world would be a better place if more people read this book. #Booksky

📚 💭 Readers are thinkers. Plain and simple. #Booksky

📚 Latest Book Read: The Library of Lost Dollhouses by Elise Hooper. I had put this on my to-read list after seeing @twinkb23.bsky.social post about it. Be forewarned: this book may spark new interests for you in art, history, or miniatures. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/8b44...

📚 Latest Book Read: How to Seal Your Own Fate by Kristen Perrin This murder mystery is second in the Castle Knoll Files series. I started it on Sunday and finished it Monday night, so my binging should serve as proof that I like it. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/74c5...

📚 Last Book Read: All the Other Mothers Hate Me This book follows former minor pop star and mother Florence. Honestly, I get why the other mothers don’t like her. She’s a highly unlikeable main character, but you do want to know what happens to her. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/025f...

Recently, I took a trip to Connecticut, which included visiting the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library in New Haven. It was Dictionary Day. Something about really old books feels so special. #Booksky

What’s even worse than banning individual books? Banning student access to libraries altogether. #Booksky bookriot.com/new-braunfel...

📖 I finished The Third Gilmore Girl today. It’s a memoir by actress and dancer Kelly (Carol) Bishop. She’s a really interesting, cheeky person. My full review is on StoryGraph (linked below) and Goodreads. #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/7936...

📚 I finished The Fortunes of Jaded Women last night. It’s a really fun read, but there are a lot of characters to follow. My full review is on StoryGraph (linked below). #Booksky app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/07c4...
