I am also reading Nightcrawling & Lessons in Chemistry this year. And I LOVED mr penumbra!
Happy reading this year!
Mod
I've only read 13 and 15, but I enjoyed them both! Happy reading!
I really enjoyed Carmilla and The Elegance of the Hedgehog has been on my TBR for 10 years, maybe I should read it too. Lovely list, Ruth!
Ruth, what a great list. I've read Carmilla, The Elegance of the Hedgehog, The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane, Eat Pray Love, and Mr. Penumbra. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane. I don't even really like tea, but I thought the story was very interesting. Best of luck!
I recognize several of your books. Good luck!
Mod
Since I only read Food of the Gods; I will definitely be interested to see what you think of it.
Good luck, Ruth!
Mod
I did read one of those: number 13.
Hope your year is filled with wonderful books!
The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane is a good one, as is Mr.Penumbra. Enjoy your picks, happy reading!
Mod
Happy reading in 2023 to everyone!

Look at u already finishing one! Great job!
I enjoyed Eat Pray Love very much, better than the movie. Mr Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore was a good one too. Good luck with your challenge.

Hi Lea, I have just finished The Tea Girl and it was amazing. I felt really immersed in the story. The way it was written was unique. I just loved it. Even got me crying at the end! Definitely need ro read more by this author.
Alissa~Really great list. I loved The Tea Girl of Hummingbird Lane and Lessons in Chemistry. I have Nightcrawling out from my library now, hear it is really good.

I wasn't as interested in Peony in Love - that book wasn't for me. Happy reading!
Mod
Hi Lea, I will definitely check more of Lisa See's books out. Thanks for your recommendation.
