I read that a very long time ago. Decades) I suspect it's one of those that I should reread.

Wonderful writer, Charlotte Perkins Gilman. I am now wondering where my slim copy is hidden. Thank you for reminding me about The Yellow Wallpaper.

Claudia | 19 comments I am currently reading The Moria Pearls by Rosalie Oaks (Book 2 of the Lady Diviner series). I really liked book 1 (a really fun, witty and eccentric cozy mystery romance) and I am enjoying this second book as much
Update: Just finished reading this book! Although the tone is a bit more somber than the first one, it was still fun and keeps well the mystery almost until the end. A very enjoyable read. I gave it 5 stars

Robin | 27 comments I have just finished Wartime with the Tram Girls by Lynn Johnson, a Net Galley read. The review is now available. This is one of those books for which I wish there were half stars available to add to the whole number. Anyway, I hope that people read the review as well as the star rating. Its a good read and deserves to do well.

Hi James, there are a couple of groups in Goodreads you can post in; ARC and book giveaways and reviewer's group. You will need to post a blurb. Also you may find reviewers that like your book's genre and you may reach out to them directly. I am knew to the groups, but they seem to work well and be active

Tamara Agha-Jaffar | 425 comments I read Travels in Vermeer: A Memoir by Michael White. It is part travelogue, part memoir, and part art appreciation. I enjoyed it, especially his "reading" of the Vermeer paintings. He pointed out details I had completely missed. His appreciation for the paintings was infectious.

message 3485: by Kathryn in FL (new)

Kathryn in FL (kathryninapopka) I just finished "Survivor" by Jane Harper. It was very well written and I felt I was in the midst of things. It isn't my favorite of hers, however but it is still over a 4 star for me. Her books are very memorable to me and I am waiting to "forget" some of the intricacies of each story so I may reread them a second time!
