I am currently reading The clockmaker’s daughter by Kate Morton and The vine of desire by Chitra Banerjee D.

[Kristina]

Just finished Where the Crawdads Sing. It was amazing. I think it might be the best book I have ever read. Taking a day in between finishing it and starting a new book because I am still holding onto it. Highly Recommend.

Kristina, I have to agree about WTCS! It was so good, lyrical and beautifully written. Up there in my top 5 for sure!

I just finished This Tender Land. It is fabulous. I am reading The Odyssey to bolster my understanding of the Greek God references in This Tender Land.

[Cara]

I'm reading Imaginary Friend, The Silent House and The Stranger In The Lake, also just started on A True Story.

[Cara]

I agree with you @Kristina that book is just lovely ♥️

[Julie]

In the middle of The Alice Network right now.

[Colette]

The Whisper Man... Early so we'll see if I appreciate it...
BTW adored The Tender Land.

[Christine]

I’m reading a book called Closer Than You Think by Karen Rose

[skketch]

I'm back to taking on two at a time.
On audio I'm listening to When We Were Vikings by Andrew David MacDonald....Just started this one and getting to know Zelda who is on the spectrum and loves Vikings and their heritage. Don't know where it's going yet but the story intrigues me so far.
In book form it's Have You Seen Luis Velez by Catherine Ryan Hyde... I think this one will be warm and sweet, so far I'm finding that two people who are lonely find each other, but in this case, it's a 16 yr old boy and a 92 yr old woman.
LOL, I just noticed that both of these authors use 3 names! What are the odds?

I just read The Whisper Man and enjoyed it and The Tender Land is on my TBR list. I predicted one part of The Whisper Man but there were still some nice surprises.

After watching Game of Thrones, I'm finally starting to read the first one. I'm also starting to listen to The Water Dancer by Ta'nahesi Coates.

It is set in Virginia during slavery times and is told from the perspective of a young boy who is a slave. He doesn't remember his mother and his father is the master of the home, so I anticipate it wil be sad. The writing is really beautiful but I'm not too far into the story yet. I'll let you know once I get farther in.

I finished two books recently that were both really great. Catch and Kill by Ronan Farrow which was a great look at the Harvey Weinstein allegations among a few others and how major media companies helped these predators by not reporting/covering up. It was great. Definitely recommend.
The other book was completely different, The Islanders by Meg Mitchell Moore, it read like a beach read but had a lot of substance. It was very enjoyable.

Next up for me is Normal People by Sally Rooney. So far I find it great.

[JMW]

Just finished ‘Royal Holiday’ by Jasmine Guillory and now starting ‘Becoming’ by FFL Michelle Obama.

I am always reading a few books at a time. I don't know why I do it - but I do.

The Water Rat of Wanchai - Ian Hamilton
A Beautiful Day in the Neighbourhood - Fred Rogers
Mr. Penumbra's 24 hour Bookstore - Robin Sloan

Just finished: Where the Lost Wander - Amy Harmon - it was my first of hers and now I will definitely be adding more to my TBR. My library even had a few for curbside pickup so I can't wait. Beautiful writing and vivid characters.

[Christine]

I’m reading a book called Miracle Road by Emily March

That book by Kristin Hannah might be my almost favorite book of all time, second after GONE WITH THE WIND.

[Judy]

I just finished A Good Neighbored and it was one of the best books I’ve ever read. The end will cause you to shed some tears but the read is amazing!

I’m now starting American Dirt.

[Nicole]

Almost done The Guest List by Lucy Foley
Up Next Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens

[Linda]

I loved The Guest List! I couldn’t put it down!

[Macarena]

I'm almost done reading Before the Coffee gets Cold and I'll probably start reading Dune afterwards

[bambu78]

I am done reading Almarina by Valeria Parrella (the only woman candidate to the Italian literary prize Premio Strega 2020) and I have started Mystic River, by Dennis Lehane. Of course I watched the movie, so I know the story but I think I will like it even so.

Who wrote A Good Neighbored?

[Laura]

I am reading The Henna Artist

[Karen]

The other day my dentist described me (to a new employee of his ) as a veracious reader. He said, "this is Karen, but she's not a Karen! She devours books." It's always so funny to see how others perceive us!

I'm currently reading: "I married Wyatt Earp - The Recollections of Josephine Sarah Marcus Earp" by Glenn G. Boyer and I just finished "Rich People Problems" by Kevin Kwan--so good!

[Karen]

The Guest List by which author? I actually see 3 books by that name...

[skketch]

I've just finished Catbird: The Ballad of Barbi Prim by Barbara Ostfeld. She was the very first female cantor of the Jewish faith in the history of Judaism. It was a quite interesting personal journey.

[Christine]

Linda I want to read that book called The Guest List by Lucy Foley

[Judy]

Therese Anne Fowler wrote The Good Neighborhood

[Sherry]

Listening to The Only Plane in the Sky. It's devastating and there is so much more to what I already knew. So far it's a compilation of many first hand accounts and it's gut punch over and over.

[Christine]

I’m reading a book called Alone In the Dark by Karen Rose

[skketch]

Currently working on The Paris Hours by Alex George
Listening to Simon the Fiddler by Pauline Jiles because I loved her News of the World
