Let's talk about our books!

[Melanie]

I'm listening to "Tom Lake" right now and I'm loving it. Meryl Streep just takes the writing to the next level!

I just finished listening to “Cilkas Journey” , a sequel to “The Tatooist of Auschwitz” and it is so eye opening, tragic but uplifting. It really shines a light on the atrocities that took place in Russia camps as well as the concentration camps at Auschwitz.

I’m currently reading a court of frost and starlight I loved the other books in the series but this has been a slow start so far

[Amanda]

Kristina- Court of frost and starlight was my least favorite too. It doesn’t add too much to the story line. Don’t worry though, silver flame makes up for it!

I like to think of ACOFAS as the "Christmas Special", wasn't my favorite, but I did enjoy it as a prequel to ACOSF

[Erica]

I'm currently reading LIGHTLARK and FUNNY STORY.

[Colette]

Right now I'm reading The Girl and the Goddess by Nikita Gill. It was one of the free PRH books that I got ages ago and never got around to reading. I don't normally read poetry or anything short-form, but I'm really enjoying it! It's giving me a lot of feelings and things to ponder.

I just finished Selma Blair's memoir MEAN BABY (which I also got from the annual free PRH book order). I've always thought she was kind of an enigma, so it was a really interesting read!

The book I have been listening to, Beautyland, just had a brief Our Town plot point which made me smile Beautyland

[Talisa]

I just finished listening to a cozy mystery “Death by Demo.” The plot wasn’t super sophisticated but I love pairing listening to mysteries with doing chores like the dishes or while working through administrative tasks.

How are we doing audiobooks? I assume ebooks just translate to official page counts, but would we do the same for audiobooks, or will those be tracked as minutes of listening?

[Trevor]

I'm just about done with American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin. After, I'm either moving on to McCullough's translation of the 15th century chronicle Yoshitsune or Bialoszewski's A Memoir of the Warsaw Uprising.

Also, I'm reading Junji Ito's Gyo to unwind in the evenings.
