I have not heard any reviews for Velvet is the Night! I’m keeping my ear out because I definitely think it has potential.

You really are more of a Read with Jenna person, picking her September book club pick for your BOTM before she even announced it. I’ll be curious to hear what you think about your Donna Tartt books. She is a fantastic writer, but I am always timid about recommending her books because I don’t think she’s for everyone. People either love her stories or hate them. Haha. I suspect you’ll be in the love category, though.

I probably would have chosen Rock Paper Scissors, except I’d already read it. It definitely had an artful twist, though I get going back and forth between intrigued and annoyed. I’m excited to hear what you think of it.

I went with Beautiful Country as well. Trying to complete my BOTM reading challenge, which last year I missed by one slot So this fulfills debut darling badge for me. I have to read it first of course!

I agree about the celebrity books. Some can be real duds. I must admit ReadwithJenna was more up my alley. Reese not so much. The Paper Palace is really good though!!! Not sure where it is headed, but so far, I love the writing. I was pleasantly surprised by that.

As I mentioned on another thread, my add ons were The Goldfinch & The Secret History. I figured I couldn’t go too wrong with those “classics.” Almost went with The Poisonwood Bible. Another oldie but goodie. I was piling up credits.

As a matter of fact, I thought I had one more

I got yo use a belated birthday coupon as well. That was a first and kinda fun!!!

I am suffering from a bout of insomnia since my youngest has gone away to college. So much to worry about! So I am reading more. So grateful for books!!!!!
