I finished Hemingway's first novel and - as usual - my rating is based on personal enjoyment rather than a measure of literary merit:


The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway
Rating: 3 stars
Review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

and I started reading Dashiell Hammett's final novel, the basis for a popular film series during the Great Depression:


The Thin Man by Dashiell Hammett

Currently reading one of the most interesting and gripping books I've read this year, and quite possibly a bit before that. I'm not quite finished, but only put it down to get a few hours of sleep and then, work, of course. lol

Only a Monster

In waiting for my April buddy reads to start, I am trying to finish Miriam Margolyes' autobiography This Much is True. It is hilarious, as expected, and quite raunchy, also as expected, which fits the picture I have painted in my mind of her based on what few interviews I have seen her in.

A great movie version as well."

I have yet to see the movie, Dorothy, but I'm going to find it.

I've just read a new debut that's a 20th century story by Aussie author Emily Brugman. A group of Finns migrated to the heat of Western Australia and became seasonal cray fishers on The Islands. First generation is traditional - second is in hotpants at beach BBQs.
4.5~5★ My review of The Islands

I imagine all readers are aware of who Nelson Mandela is, but for the future generations of children, this is a welcome addition to the Little People BIG DREAMS series by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara. This boy moved from a traditional childhood in an old culture to become a champion for freedom and a world leader.
4.5★ My review of Nelson Mandela

Currently I am reading:
- three sisters, three queens by Philippa Gregory for a challenge I'm doing in another group
- A long walk to freedom for a challenge for another group

I am planning on starting Dream Key this weekend so I can review it as I promised I would so I feel like I need to and next week I will start 'Unusual Read' as my this months read from another group. I am also going to a group meet for my local bookclub so hopefully they will give me the title of the book we are going to discuss at the next meet so I can read that before the month is up and if I find the time in between everything and changing my job I'm hoping to read this month's book for this group as well....it's a busy month not going to lie

Currently enjoying Everything We Didn't Say


Pretty good so far; trying to guess and unravel the mystery before the end. =p

The Second Sight of Zachary Cloudesley is an entertaining debut by Sean Lusk which has some history, some mystery, some magic, and exotic locales (think sultan and harem!) so I can see a real fan base for this when it comes out in June.
3.5★ My review of Second Sight of Zachary...

[PattyMacDotComma]

I enjoyed Viet Thanh Nguyen's 2016 Pulitzer Prize winner, The Sympathizer, but the political and philosophical arguments got the better of me in his follow-up, The Committed. He's an excellent, smart writer - and funny (a Chinese guy called Le Cao Boi wishes he were American).

DNF @ 39% My comments on The Committed

[Christine]

I’m reading a book called For Their Child's Sake by Jules Bennett

[PattyMacDotComma]

Zeba Blay's Carefree Black Girls: A Celebration of Black Women in Popular Culture is a passionate protest, full of examples, about the global culture of "colorism" and how the darkness of your skin decides your worth and opportunities. She knows her stuff!
4★ My review of Carefree Black Girls

[Alicja]

I have finished a long walk to freedom, it was a difficult book and a long one but honestly it was life changing and I could not recommend it enough. I have decided to put three sisters on the back burner, instead I'm reading Natural Causes for a little bit of a break between the hearsher topics, I may pick up three sisters soon but not until I finish this one and at least one of my book club books

[Christine]

I’m reading a book called The Family Across the Street by Nicole Trope

[RJ - Slayer of Trolls]

I finished the first Amelia Peabody Victorian-Era Egyptian Archeology mystery:


Crocodile on the Sandbank by Elizabeth Peters
Rating: 3 stars
Review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

and I started reading the first Dave Robicheaux novel, starring an alcoholic ex-cop who is obsessed over his dead wife, a character type that I'm not sure has ever been used before...


The Neon Rain by James Lee Burke
