There was no fooling any of you! The term, "The Jazz Age," was popularized by F. Scott Fitzgerald. While some claim he coined the term, it actually seems to have appeared in articles predating The Great Gatsby.

This author was a childhood neighbor and friend of Harper Lee. Take a guess here.

It's November!!! How did that happen? November challenges should be up before the end of the week.

How is everyone doing? We are in the final run toward the end of the year. Are you on track with your goals? Ahead? Behind? No matter where you are, let's finish strong!

Of course, we can't finish strong without our current reads! What are you all reading this week? I picked up The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue on Friday and binged my way through it this weekend. I greatly enjoyed it and I needed a fun historical romp to dispel the gloom. Probably going to work on The Language of Thorns and The Norse Myths (I saw Ragnarok this weekend, lol) now; maybe something else if I focus.

All right, everyone! Let's do this!! 8 weeks to go!

The Gentleman's Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee The Language of Thorns Midnight Tales and Dangerous Magic by Leigh Bardugo The Norse Myths A Guide to the Gods and Heroes by Carolyne Larrington

Ingrid Hurst (bookrdr) | 285 comments I broke all my reading records & have read over 60 books.
Finished The Dying Game which I enjoyed since it was set in Stockholm & I am 1/2 Swedish.
Next I’m reading The Lying Game.

Ann (ann-fracturedfiction) | 516 comments I finished Braving the Wilderness by Brene Brown, If Books Could Kill by Kate Carlisle, and Prose & Cons by Amanda Flower. I'm currently reading Death by Tea by Alex Erickson and still working on Wired to Create (fascinating book- easier in small chunks though- there is a lot to think about).
Braving the Wilderness The Quest for True Belonging and the Courage to Stand Alone by Brené Brown If Books Could Kill (Bibliophile Mystery #2) by Kate Carlisle Prose and Cons (Magical Bookshop, #2) by Amanda Flower
Death by Tea (Bookstore Cafe Mysteries) by Alex Erickson Wired to Create Unraveling the Mysteries of the Creative Mind by Scott Barry Kaufman
