I read this for the @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch book club & I really liked it. Itโs listed as horror so I was apprehensive since Iโm not that interested in that but I think living through the last 10 years have probably dull my senses to this kind of horror.
I finished the #WinterReadingChallenge from @bpl.boston.gov with books from Africa, Middle East & Americas & read 2 more books for the #BrightonBranch book club.

This monthโs @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch book club read. Iโm not really into gothic horror & this was a very freaky read but I believe it is considered a classic within the genre.

This was a read for the #BrightonBranch @bpl.boston.gov book club. Itโs a fictional accounting of a lady pirate who may or may not have been real. It was a really interesting read since I havenโt read many pirate stories.

I read this for the @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch book club. This is a dual timeline story & I did get into it by the end but for some reason, djinn stories have never really captured me. ๐๐

I read this for the @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch book club & it was so good. Itโs been on my list for awhile but I was thinking I wouldnโt get to it until next year so I was happy to see it as the pick. Iโve already gotten the second one from the library as well.

This was a @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch book club read. Interestingly, it was kind of slow getting through it & I only got 50% read before the meeting & then afterwards, I finished it really quickly.
My August reading wrap up. #BookSky & I think all 15 were good, it would be hard to pick a favorite. The Parliament was for #BrightonBranch book club & Fall of Ruin & Wrath was from my physical TBR. 3 nonfiction, 4 romance & 2 magical realism ๐ก๐๐ ๐ถ๏ธ๐๐ ๐ช๐๐ ๐๏ธ๐๐

I read this for the @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch #BookClub & actually went to the meeting for the first time ever. Iโve been reading along with them for 2 or 3 years but itโs right during the dinner time/bedtime transition so Iโve never made it in to a meeting.
I happen to be reading this on #InternationalOwlAwarenessDay for the @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch #BookClub & let me tell you, the owls are not the good guys in this one ๐ณ. Also, very subversive for a library book club to read a horror book set in a library.
@bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch has what to read based on your zodiac sign recommendations so Iโll have to check these out, the fact that thereโs a David Grann book on there is promising. #BookSky ๐๐

My June reading wrap up
I read 16 books - 12 fiction & 4 nonfiction, most a result of my out of control hold list from the library. Ironically, the one book I actually own was for the @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch book club.

I read this for @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch book club. Iโd never read it before but I know the story of the radio broadcast. It was not at all what I expected & it was interesting to read it while trying to imagine how it was experienced listening on the radio.
#ILoveMyLibrary @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch
Black Water Sister was for the @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch book club & I plan to buy How Fascism Works & On Tyranny because I think those are important to have in my home library, especially in light of book bans.

This was the read for @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch book club this month. I donโt do audio that often but it is what was available. I think the narrator was good but the book felt like it went on longer than it should have.
(I wish I knew how to get the whole image to fit)
#BookSky my April reads- 17 books! 3 NF, Huda F for Arab Am Heritage Mo, Banned for #BannedBookSkyClub , Decagon for @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch book club, Silent Spring for ๐ Day, Heir from my TBR, Berry, Ministry & Rivers from my goal list.

I read this for the @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch #BookClub & it was pretty good. I definitely didnโt see the twist coming.

This was the @bpl.boston.gov #BrightonBranch book club pick for the month. There was another book by this author picked 2 years ago that I absolutely hated so I had trepidations but this one wasnโt as bad. Audio was what was available, I donโt know if that made a difference for me
