I loved American Dirt, too. Didn’t even know about all the controversy until I finished. I am interested in Hispanic writers, too and have read books. Someone, was very distressed and even made a list. The list was great, but I told him the problem is not the author, it’s that publishing houses aren’t selecting a variety of Hispanic writing. I do agree w/you, think it’s crossing a line of just too Politically Correct when can only read if that exact background. I am Irish and German, don’t know much about my heritage. So, suddenly I qualify to write a book on Ireland, and I am the only one allowed? Glad you liked the book 📖 Excellent.

I couldn't wait Jasmine, I began it yesterday while hubby was glued to football games! I've only got about 10% into it but so far it's good. Well written and so far, enjoying the plotline tension.

Almost finished with Cold Millions by Jess Walters! A surprisingly good read! ❤️❤️

[Sally]

If you're looking for a "joyous read," try The Best Part of Us--top reviews from Kirkus and virtually every reader. I'd love to hear what you think about the story!

[KevinSMom]

It has been awhile, but I read Behind the Fan and thought is was wonderful.

It is written by Caroline Walken and it centers on the life (present and past) of an woman suffering from dementia.

It is emotional, but in an uplifting way. I am thinking of reading it again, loved it that much!

[Maggie]

Almost done with The Equivalents: A Story of Art, Female Friendship and Liberation in the 1960s by Maggie Doherty. It's enormously engaging, especially for those who like biography of female writers/artists navigating the difficult waters of creativity, being taken seriously, supporting each other and staying sane while making a living.

[Madhuri]

Furiously Happy by Jenny Lawson

[Marii]

I'm reading the Royals series by Erin Watt and I'm almost finished! I am loving it ... next I have the off-campus series by Elle Kennedy

[The Ravishing]

all right, so I know I haven't Mia this week but with my assistant manager quitting on Monday and my admin assistant working from home since March due to covid-19 my office of four is now down to two so I'm trying to get my reading done on my lunch break if and when I get one or when I get home before I pass out on the couch.
so to catch up, thank you Sally for the recommend on the best part of us. I have added it to my TBR

@Tommy, I loved beloved by Toni Morrison. she is one of my old faves.

also @Maggie, let me know how you like the equivalents. that is just my type of read. I may add it to my TBR based on your recommendation.

finally, onto my currently reading: I am currently doing a buddy read for when we believed in mermaids by Barbara O'neal. with any luck I'll be done by Monday, fingers crossed

The Dragonbone Chair by Tad Williams.

[April]

Reading the Invisible Life of Addie Larue. Obsessed. Does anyone have any suggestions that are along these lines in terms of a woman lead with some aspect of magic without involving witches or fairies? I have a few more books lined up but always looking for the next read.

Thank you.

[Tanya]

I agree Laura. I really loved the story but also learning about the history of tea. Every time after I finished the book and I made a cup of tea, I thought of that book.

[Laura]

@skketch I don't drink much tea anymore (coffee drinker) but its such a great story.
