I just finished that one and thought it was excellent.

I'm a fan of picture books that will prompt ongoing conversations between grown-ups and children. Together Again: A Story About Joy by Kochka is about a little boy who's about to burst with anticipation!
4.5★ Link to my review of Together Again with several of the exuberant illustrations

I knew I'd enjoy Elizabeth Strout's latest book, Oh William!, and I was right. She knows people inside and out, and it is a delight to be caught up in her stories.

This is Lucy Barton's memoir, but you don't need to have read My Name Is Lucy Barton first. It's a standalone.

My Name is Anton by Catherine Ryan Hyde will be enjoyed by her fans. I also think younger readers would like this story of a young man in love.

I must read more Jeffery Deaver! I enjoyed his latest Amazon Original Story, Cause of Death, which could easily have been deveoped into a novel. While the title may not be unique, the cause of death certainly is.

Currently reading Uncle and Ants by Marc Jedel

I finished reading Tainted Bodies by Sarah Robinson. This is book 1 in The Photographer romantic suspense trilogy and ends with a cliffhanger. Luckily, I have all 3 books and will be reading the other two in August.

My 3.5 star review rounded to 3 stars: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Last Guard by Nalini Singh is the latest installment in the Psy-Changeling Trinity series. While Silver Silence remains my favorite in this 5-book series, Last Guard is a close contender because it advances the storyline of the ongoing PsyNet crisis.

"Revolutions never start at the top." Aussie social psychologist Hugh Mackay has studied and written about the Australian community for decades. The Kindness Revolution: How we can restore hope, rebuild trust and inspire optimism is a terrific resource for anyone wanting to make a difference, not only in Australia.

I loved Akwaeke Emezi's debut novel, Freshwater, but I think other readers will enjoy The Death of Vivek Oji more than I did. Love, sex, acceptance.

I finished reading Chosen by Fate by Virna DePaul. This is the second book in the Para-Ops series and can be classified as urban fantasy, paranormal romance, and supernatural suspense. Unfortunately, it didn't hold my attention.

Just finished The Ten Thousand Doors of January I was very disappointed with this book. I had such high hopes, but it fell flat. I thought the writing style was beautiful, but the characters were 2-dimensional, boring, and not complex in the slightest.

Just started A Good Girl's Guide to Murder and I am already almost done. It has been very good so far.

I finished 2 books today:

my Tell Me review

my Dark Roads review

[Kristie, Moderator (Retired)]

I have started The Noise by James Patterson and J.D. Barker. I'm only 5% in, but it immediately grabbed my attention.

I also started The Final Girl Support Group. I’m just at 11% and I'm not sure what to make of it yet. It was not at all what I expected it to be from the start.

[PattyMacDotComma]

I loved John Boyne's latest novel, a satire about The Echo Chamber that is Twitter. The Cleverley family is less than clever, but oh, so funny, as they learn what being cancelled means.

I often admit that I have a soft spot for short stories, and I've just read two very different ones. Both are FREE and I've included links where you can find them.

Well-known author Amor Towles wrote The Line about a simple Russian peasant, Pushkin, who finds contentment easily, while his wife keeps seeking greener pastures.
4★ Link to my review of The Line

On a completely different and funny note -

Cost of Care by Betsy Robinson is an extremely short story that is bound to delight you! Spare a few minutes to see a pair of entitled folk get their come-uppance. Supremely satisfying!

I'm at 17% in The Final Girl Support Group and I'm not loving it. It isn't what I was expecting, so I'm trying to give it some time, but I have thoughts on what's happening and if I'm right then it's not my favorite type of story.

So... I've also started We Are the Brennans, which seems to be fitting my mood a bit better right now. This will give me some time to step away from the Support Group and give me a chance to adjust to that unexpected storyline.

Case Histories by Kate Atkinson. It's a quick read but I've thoroughly enjoyed it!

[PamG]

I finished Pretty Girls Dancing by Kylie Brant. This one had a great concept but the flow and lack of depth in most of the characters kept this one to 3.5 stars rounded to 3 stars.

I declined for this one! Sadly, it was my first decline from MacMillan. It's likely my library will get it, so I'll read it eventually. Let us know what you think o fit.

I found the women in this book inspiring.

I would definitely recommend giving this one a try if you enjoy family drama, secrets, love, and mostly family coming together.

Just started reading Dinosaur Lake by Kathryn Meyer Griffith

[Kristie, Moderator (Retired)]

I put aside a couple of books today. I was listening to The Inventor's Secret with my grandson, but every time I asked if he wanted to put his book on he said no. It turns out he just wasn't very interested in it. So, I put it aside and we started listening to From the Desk of Zoe Washington instead. He seems to be enjoying this one more. We are also almost done reading My Life as a Potato together, which he is enjoying.

I also put aside The Final Girl Support Group. I was not enjoying it and it was due back to the library today. It had an unreliable & unlikable narrator. Plus, I just wasn't really engaged in the story. To make it worse, I chose the audio and I did not care for the narrator. Her voice was starting to grate on me. So, after reading 59%, back to the library it went. I may try to get a physical copy at some point to see if it's any better, but maybe not.

I am now reading Allie and Bea and The Noise.

Another favourite of mine, Mau. Enjoy!

The Story of Climate Change: A first book about how we can help save our planet by Catherine Barr is just what it says. Attractive and surprisingly informative for a children's book. Goes right back to before the dinosaurs. Cute cartoonish drawings.
4.5~5★ Link to my review of Story of Climate Change with several illustrations.

[PattyMacDotComma]

This one's for dads, or rather kids with dads. My Dad by Susan Quinn shows a cute little kid with a dad who is a happy, fulltime parent. Warm, fuzzy stuff and nicely imaginative.
4.5★ Link to my My Dad review with selected illustrations.

Ordinary Grace by William Kent Krueger is such a favourite of so many readers that I finally just had to read it. If you haven't yet, do! Great characters, family, mystery, tragedy - the works!
