Forward a Memoir by Abby Wambach for sportsPassing By Nella Larsen a classic by a person of color
In the Country We Love by Diana Guerrero Immigration theme
I just finished Passing by Nella Larsen in category 17, a classic by a person of color. It is a powerful little book, I recommend it.
If it was a normal book club, it would be for what the group's current monthly read was. It isn't for anything in this group.
Just finished my first #ReadHarder book: A children's classic published before 1980 - The Story of Ferdinand By: Munroe Leaf (published 1936)
For the essay anthology prompt I am reading Ten Women which was recommended to me by a fellow breast cancer survivor.
I'm reading
for A Book w/ a Cover You Hate task. I'm kind of over it already, but I am going to finish it.
Currently listening to The Diary of a Young Girl for a book that was published posthumously. It's read by Selma Blair and is good. Kinda puts me to sleep though lol
I'm getting ready to begin the Orphan Train. I don't think it fits anything in the challenge but I've heard so much about it so... hopefully it lives up to the hype.
The Last Mrs. Parrish finally arrived after being on hold for 26 weeks. It doesn't exactly fit any of the challenges, but it is one that I have been waiting for! I'll be starting it once I get home from work.

For true crime, I'm reading I'll Be Gone in the Dark: One Woman's Obsessive Search for the Golden State Killer
I'm just starting The Stranger in the Woods: The Extraordinary Story of the Last True Hermit for the book about nature task.
Candace wrote: "I'm reading Born a Crime and I'm surprised at how funny + informative it is."Born a Crime: Stories From a South African Childhood has been one of my favorites this year. I just started reading Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe, and Persepolis 2: The Story of a Return. I have kind of high expectations for both.

Currently reading Brain on Fire: My Month of Madness and His Majesty's Dragon. Planning on spending the rest of the day in bed binging.
