Just completed prompt for Three Generations - The Ladies of the Secret Circus by Constance Sayers. Overall, I enjoyed this fantastical, macabre tale. It was a nice escape from a day of chores. And I really appreciated the exploration of the relationship between the related women. However, there were bits missing and a few parts that were a bit too long for the overall story. I received this book as a free giveaway in exchange for my honest review. Worth reading! 4 stars

Just completed prompt for trying to save nature - Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir. Wow, what a ride! For science and math nerds out there, this book is chock full of everything your heart could desire. For us space needs, it’s a thrilling adventure! There are some lovely asides about being human and being good too. Definitely recommend! 5 stars
