Ann's Apr-2023 part 1

[Ann]

My April books,
Really good books:
The White Lady by Jacqueline Winspear finished 01-Apr-2023. Stellar narration and immersion in the era adds to the enjoyment.

The Dead Romantics by Ashley Poston finished 02-Apr-2023 audio, a reminder we all need a little romance in our lives.

River Woman, River Demon by Jennifer Givhan finished 03-Apr-2023, Kindle and audio, many layers and magick. The setting and details are exquisitely layered, the emotions and feelings are visceral.

I Have Some Questions for You by Rebecca Makkai finished 13-Apr-2023 audio, riveting. Very important questions. The e podcast details serve well as a vehicle to move the plot. The subtle/not subtle insertion of chilling details build up and we can study collective memory and how looking back years changes our perception,

World of Trouble by Ben H. Winters finished 15-Apr-2023, audio. A most worthy ending to the apocalyptic trilogy

Not the Ones Dead by Dana Stabenow finished 21-Apr-2023, audio. Kate Shugak.

Vampire Weekend by Mike Chen finished 26-Apr-w2023, library print supplemented by audio,
There are both beautiful and painfully emotional moments and more in between with vivid images evoked by the story and excellent audio narration.

City of Dreams by Don Winslow finished 30-Apr-2023. Audio, I should have known the second Danny Ryan book would stand up well.

Wow, Ann. And there's a part 2 post?!?!?

[Ann]

Carol, it was a good reading month for sure, and partly timing too. Some started in prior months coincidentally finished up in April.
