Robin's Reading Plan - June 2023

[Robin]

I'm leaving for vacation in a couple of days and going to the Black Hills of South Dakota. It's a bus trip, but since I'm the host/organizer, I don't think I'll have much time for reading. So, it will be a short list for June.

Group/Buddy:
✓ Shadow Dance - Julie Garwood (T,D,D) ★★★★☆ 1/2
✓ Lover Mine - J.R. Ward (NG) ★★★★★
✓ Free Fall - Suzanne Brockmann (JDR) ★★★★☆
✓ Home Fire Inferno - Suzanne Brockmann (JDR) ★★★★☆

2,3,4:
✓ Driven - Rebecca Zanetti ★★★★☆ 1/2
Tangled Up in You - Rachel Gibson
Chemical Capture - Debbie Baldwin

Standalone/First in Series:
✓ Back of Beyond - C.J. Box (AOM) ★★★★★
✓ Drowning - T.J. Newman ★★★★★

I hope you have the best time! My mom and I road tripped to/through the black hills area twice and would happily go back again. So beautiful (and NO humidity!)…

You might not have a ton of books planned, but you have some powerhouse authors in the mix, happy reading!

[Michelle]

Enjoy your trip. And whatever reading you manage

[Sharon]

Have fun on your trip. Enjoy whatever you have time to read.

[Lieke]

Enjoy your trip and your reading!

[Lauren]

Happy reading, Robin!
Enjoy your holiday - also, isn't their a Nora Roberts books set in the Black Hills 😊

[Anita]

The Black Hills sounds like a wonderful trip! Love your reading list.

[Jonetta]

Enjoy whatever you can get to! I visited South Dakota many years ago and recall it being a fascinating but sprawling state. If you can read on the bus, you’ll get lots of opportunities.

Have fun!

I was reading a book on my kindle while I was on vacation. The library took it back when I was in the middle of it, so I'm back on the waiting list.

When I got home, I finished listening to Lover Mine by J.R. Ward.

One of the things I like best about Hoopla is the 21 days they give you to read/listen to a book. Mostly I'm finished long before that, but it is nice to have the time when you need it.

I was sorry when my library got rid of Hoopla. I liked the 21 days and the vast selection of audiobooks.

This morning I listened to Home Fire Inferno by Suzanne Brockmann.

Robin and Sharon, do you still have Overdrive? You can change your settings to 21 days.

Overdrive will let me change audiobooks to 21 days, but not ebooks.

That is such a pity. Hoopla's audiobook selection is amazing.

Last night I finished reading Driven by Rebecca Zanetti.
