✨ april ✨ april had the nerve to turn me another year older but am i wiser? we are yet to figure that out. despite all of its faults (mainly the temperatures!), the month had been exactly what i’ve needed the first three months to be, stable and solid and warm. so it’s definitely had me praying for a few extra good days than the 30 we were given, but all good things must come to an end, so let’s hope, may is as dependable and bright as it’s predecessor ✨ 📖 reading stats: read: 7 books pages read: 2419 mood of the month: sad but hopeful books read and ratings: ~ heaven official’s blessing - 4.5⭐️s ~ we all want impossible things - 3.25⭐️s ~ wild love - 2⭐️s ~ kingdom fall - 3.5⭐️s ~ forget me not - 4.5⭐️s ~ the good part - 4.5⭐️s ~ palace of illusions - tbd (but 4-4.5⭐️s) currently reading: ~ on earth we’re briefly gorgeous - obsessed, this is on its way to become a favorite of all time! (yes, yes, i’ve decided to take this journey with only one book at a time turns out i’m not very good at multitasking, but who’s surprised?!) 🎬 currently watching and loving: ~ lovely runner - my all-time favorite drama, i said what i said! (also it’s monday aka lovely runner day, now watch me be insufferable on the stories!) ~ the bear season 2 - chaotic (& wholesome!!!) in the best way possible! ~ abbott elementary season 1 🎧 listening to: ~ the ttpd album - so long london, chloe or sam or sophia or marcus, and loml are on repeat! ~ conan gray (especially people watching!!!) 🦋 here’s to an amazing may!

Το μυθιστόρημα του Kōbō Abe είναι επώδυνα εσωστρεφές. Ο συγγραφέας μέσα από μια σπειροειδή αναζήτηση ταυτότητας βυθίζεται στον πυρήνα του εγώ του προσπαθώντας να ξεδιαλύνει, να οριοθετήσει, να θωρακίσει και να διαφυλάξει τα στοιχεία της προσωπικότητας του από την εμφάνιση/εισβολή του Άλλου. Εκτός του ότι είμαστε αυτό που οι άλλοι βλέπουν σε εμάς, διαμορφώνουμε μια ψευδή εικόνα την οποία προβάλλουμε καλύπτοντας ανασφάλειες. Το χειρότερο όλων είναι η έλλειψη κριτικής ικανότητας που οδηγεί στην αφομοίωση του υποκειμένου, λόγω της υιοθέτησης κρίσεων τρίτων, και στον εκμηδενισμό του ως αυθύπαρκτη προσωπικότητα. Την αγωνία της αποδοχής εντείνει η ακραία διαφορετικότητα καθιστώντας την πάλη ένα δύσβατο μονοπάτι. Εννοείται ότι το λάτρεψα το βιβλίο και πολύ θα ήθελα τη γνώμη σας για τον συγγραφέα Το πρόσωπο του άλλου, Kōbō Abe Μτφ.Στέλιος Παπαλεξανδρόπουλος @agrapubs #instapost #instareview #japaneseliterature #japan #koboabe #booksuggestions #booklover #readerslife #agrabooks #angelikisbookclub #books_i_luv2read

📚 BOOK REVIEW 📚 Beartown By Fredrik Backman ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ / 5 Genre: Fiction Pages: 432 I just cannot get over how well this author writes feelings, expressions, emotions. In a couple of sentences he can wrap up something profound in a way someone else could write a whole book about and never skim the surface. “Love is hard. It makes demands. Hate is simple.” Speaking of skimming the surface… this book is about hockey… small town ice hockey. In Beartown. But that’s not all it’s about- a tragic incident, repercussions, hopes, dreams, courage, secrets, ambiguity, a violent act… bang bang bang. “She’s scared of the darkness, in the middle of the day.” You will be transported into the lives of these characters and you will know them, love them and loathe them. They will remind you of glimpses of what you have seen, heard, experienced, known in your own life. Backman just does this like no other. Can’t wait to read book 2 in this series! This book will be my pick for #the52bookclub2024 prompt 16 featuring a book that has an omniscient narrator. Thank you to @sarahsbookchat who recommended it for my 12 books in 12 months by 12 friends challenge. 🌸 Have you ever anything by Backman? If not, go… run now. 😊 OR Did you play a sport in high school? - - 🏷️ #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #booklover #booksofinsta #bookworm #bookish #booknerd #readersofinstagram #readersofig #readersofinsta #instareads #bookblogger #bookcommunity #readingcommunity #12in12by12 #52booksin52weeks #bookstagrammer #booklover #readmorebooks #readmore #readerslife #fictionbooks #aussiebookstagrammer #aussiebookstagram #fredrikbackman #beartown #bookreview #bookreviews #fivestarreview #allofourbooks

Surprise, Vampire in Wonderland now has a hardback! @amberrduell and hadn’t planned on doing one just yet but an awesome opportunity came up! It’s also available on Amazon and Barnes now!

This is the second book in the Elements of Cadence duology. Rebecca Ross’s writing is absolutely beautiful. The world building in this book was incredible. The world that Ross created was gorgeous and fascinating. I love how Ross incorporates music into her plots. Music is very important to me, and I love the way it was used in this book. I loved the different perspectives we got as well. The characters are very interesting and they change and grow throughout the book. The romances in the book are absolutely gorgeous. I was nervous I wouldn’t like the book because Adaira was in the west, but I really love what the author did with it and how she connected all of the characters. I love the messages and themes in the story as well. In my opinion, Ross wrapped up the story very well. I thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to immerse myself in this world! 🎶5 stars #kindleunlimited #rebeccaross #elementsofcadence #books #bookstagram #readerslife #reader #reading #bookstagrammer

As I am typing this I hope there is big surprises in the last one day 😂 It was hectic month - moving to new place, vacations, dinner dates , lovely catch up with friends and family ! Even with limited reading time, it was mostly peaceful ❤️ I may have put on weight from all the yummy foods but that’s another story. How was your April? Reading and otherwise…

A Daughter of Fair Verona - Christina Dodd Pub. Date: June 25, 2024 ****QoTD: What Shakespearean work have you read or play/movie have you seen?**** IF Romeo and Juliet had lived, what would their firstborn daughter be like? Read this clever and witty book to find out! Their survival will be explained and you will enjoy a romp through fair Verona as their headstrong, virginal, unmarried at an “elderly” age (20!!!) daughter, Rosaline, avoids marriage to unsuitable prospects, is accused of murder, pursues an avocation as an alchemist, meets a true love, is trained in swordsmanship and is wooed by a prince. Rosaline (Rosie) is a spunky, hot blooded, pragmatic, clever young woman with a biting wit. Just when she finds the love of her life, she is forcibly betrothed to an unlikable character who is murdered at their engagement party. Soon, a second character is poisoned and suspicion falls on Rosie. It is up to her and her intrepid, protective nurse to prove her innocence. Yes, it is historical, but it has a snappy, contemporary feel to it. The book ends on a cliff hanger and there is already a sequel in the works. Do read the author’s notes at the end….where you can find the website for the recipe for the fruit and nut bread so loved by the prince and more information about the series.

𝙺𝚕𝚎𝚒𝚗𝚎𝚜 𝙻𝚒𝚏𝚎𝚞𝚙𝚍𝚊𝚝𝚎 🤍 Q: Wie fühlt ihr euch gerade mit eurem Blog/Community ? Heyo 👋 Ich dachte ich melde mich mal endlich wieder so. Ich habe das Gefühl dass durch die ganzen Rezensionen, Reels etc. ich den Kontakt zu euch und den Bookies einfach verloren habe. Da es kaum zu Konversation kommt und ich nur daran denke Hauptsache posten und dann wieder raus. Ja dann wieder raus ! Bei mir ist seit längerem der Wurm drin. Die wirkliche Lust ist auch nicht mehr so wirklich da. Muss ich den jedesmal in der Story posten das ich ein Buch beendet habe ? - vor allem da ich ja so viel im generellen lese. Ich habe genügend Entwürfe und content dass nur bearbeitet werden muss - doch mich wirklich aufraffen will ich nicht. Das Wochenende dafür nutzen will ich nicht. Zur Zeit lese ich einfach nur. Die Hälfte davon wisst ihr nicht mal das ich es gelesen habe. Buchpost zeige ich nur noch gesammelt. Muss aber vorher in die Story dass es angekommen ist. Ihr merkt bei mir rattert es im inneren. Vielmehr hat es damit zu tun, dass ich gerade kein angefangen Buch gefühlt habe. Nur dank meinem BR habe ich wieder die Lust gewonnen die Bücher doch noch zu lesen. Eine Bücher habe ich abgebrochen. Aber nie bekanntgeben da es vor allem Bücher sind von ehemaligen Blogger/ oder gute Autorinnen. Vor allem muss da noch die Mail raus. Follower kommen und gehen und machen mich so unmotiviert. Ihr merkt ein Strudel im Kopf. Isla 🤍

🐕 For the Love of a Dog by Amanda Brookfield This book is for everyone who has ever loved a dog ❤️ "After the death of her mother and the end of a post-divorce relationship leave her heartbroken, novelist Amanda Brookfield finds her once secure world imploding. As despair closes in, she talks of getting a puppy to revive her optimistic spirit. Amanda is advised that her lifestyle will not suit becoming a dog-owner but she can't resist Mabel, a beautiful golden doodle puppy. Arming herself with an arsenal of equipment, Amanda learns that there are no short-cuts to training and caring for a dog. Through battling daily challenges and constantly regrouping, Amanda realises she is starting to come to terms with her bereavement and the prospect of facing the rest of her life alone. For the Love of a Dog tells the bigger, more poignant story about the labour of emotional recovery after the trauma of loss. Mabel shines like a light throughout, the unwitting architect of rebuilding self-belief. Mabel's own journey is equally captivating: as she blossoms into a mischievous, endearing head-turner of a companion - as affectionate as she is glorious." #fortheloveofadog #amandabrookfield #booksaboutdogs #booksaboutgrief #bookstagram #bookstagramnorway #nonfiction #resentread #readmorenonfiction #readmorebooks #bookreader #bookrecommendations #readerslife #readingbooks #bookpeoplearethebestpeople #ilovetoread #ilovebooks

📚🧶.. Haakproject: booksleeve 2 ..🧶📚 Naast de kleurrijke sleeve die ik dit jaar ga maken met alle kleuren van de boeken die ik lees (zie vorige post), heb ik deze alvast gehaakt voor nu. Voor een eerste poging ben ik er best blij mee! 🤗 Ik ga nog verschillende bloemen haken om erop te zetten, en misschien nog een vlinder. Ook moeten er nog twee knoopjes op waar nu nog klemmetjes zitten. Gisteravond heb ik eindelijk "Huis van Vuur en Schaduw" van sarah j maas uitgelezen en kan nu dus beginnen aan "Hate Mail" van Donna Marchetti, die ik van @cchasingtales 🧚🏼‍♀️ heb gekregen. 🤗 voor die heb ik ook meteen een bijpassend wolletje uitgekozen 🧶 📚🧶.. Crochet project: booksleeve 2 ..🧶📚 In addition to the colorful sleeve I'm going to make this year with all the colors of the books I read (see previous post), I've already crocheted this one for now. For a first attempt, I'm quite pleased with it! 🤗 I'm going to crochet various flowers to put on it, and maybe even a butterfly. There are also two buttons to be added where there are currently clips. Last night, I finally finished "House of Fire and Shadow" and can now start "Hate Mail" by Donna Marchetti, which I received from @cchasingtales 🧚🏼‍♀️. 🤗 . . . . . . #Bookstagram #Bookish #BookLove #ReadingCommunity #Bookworm #AmReading #BookAddict #ReadersLife #Bibliophile #BookNerd #BookObsessed #InstaBooks #BookPhotography #CurrentlyReading #GoodReads #BookLover #BookRecommendations #BookishFeatures #BookishLife #Bookaholic #BookClub #BookReview #ReadingList #BookCommunity #BookishFlatlay #BookishEscape #BookishWorld #bookishtreats #marlenybooks #bookfairies

✨So viel mehr als eine historische Liebesgeschichte✨ Der erste Teil der Reihe war für mich ein Reread. Ich habe es vor einigen Jahren rein zum Vergnügen gelesen. Dabei jedoch völlig übersehen, was alles noch in diesem Buch steckt. Wir begleiten Annabelle auf dem Weg nach Oxford. Als eine der ersten Frauen, die dort „studieren“ dürfen. Natürlich durften Frauen zu dieser Zeit, nicht so wie Männer, Prüfungen ablegen oder gar einen akademischen Grad erlangen. Das passierte in Oxford erst 1920… Annabelle bekommt ein Stipendium. Dadurch muss sie sich der damalige Frauenbewegung anschließen und lernt somit Lucie, Hattie und Catriona kennen. Ganz bemerkenswert hat die Autorin hier die Geschichte der Suffragetten (Frauenbewegung England) eingearbeitet. Mit viel geschichtlichen Hintergrund und Themen, die bis heute zum nachdenken anregen. Natürlich vergesse ich die Liebesgeschichte hier kein Stück. Sie war wundervoll. Ich liebe es, dass wir es hier mit einer starken Frau zu tun haben die dennoch der Liebe verfällt. Aber weicht sie dadurch von ihrem Weg ab ?? Lest selbst. • • • • • • • • • • #dierebellinnenvonoxford #lyxverlag #lyxliebe #lyxtagram #eviedunmore #liebesroman #bücherliebe #bücherwurm #bücherwelt #liebesromane #leseliebe #leseratte #lesezeit #bookstagram #bookstagramgermany #bookstagamdeutschland #readersofinstagram #readersofig #readersofinsta #readerslife #readingaddict #bookish #bookishlove #bookishpost #bookblogger #bookblog #buchblogger #buchblog #buchtipp #buchempfehlung

📖 Avis lecture📖 Bonjour ☺️, Passionnés d’histoire ce livre est pour vous! Les auteurs nous emmènent vivre les derniers jours de 20 grandes reines. De Cléopatre à la reine Astrid. En passant par Alienor, Sissi, Marie-Antoinette, Victoria ou la tsarine Alexandra. Et c’est tout simplement passionnant. Chaque chapitre revient sur la vie de chacune et se termine avec une bibliographie pour aller plus loin. C’est instructif, vivant et parfois même émouvant. Le tour de force de ce documentaire est de se lire comme un roman! Bien entendu, selon nos préférences et sensibilités, nous serons plus attachés à certains récits que d’autres mais tous sont d’une grande qualité autant historique que narrative. Ce qui n’a rien d’étonnant car la collection Tempus des éditions Perrin est vraiment une référence pour les documentaires historiques. Dans la même collection existe « les derniers jours des rois » que je vais me procurer d’ici peu. Et vous, quelle est votre reine favorite? Les derniers jours des reines sous la direction de JC Buisson et J.

I thought I'd jump aboard the #readinghabitstag when I saw it from Melanie @avonlea_booknerd. The photo speaks for itself. Coming across secondhand kids' fiction with lovely old dust jackets makes me happy. They are among the very best remnants of the 20th century. So here goes. Current read: I've almost finished The Family From One End Street, which you see in the spread. Genres I typically avoid: I'm afraid it's medical dramas for me. They trigger my anxiety. It's a shame when these are recommended or written by good friends, but peace of mind is a precious and frail thing 😉 Worst Reading Habits: I'm going to blame book blogging and #bookstagram for this one. It's not re-reading excellent books once I've reviewed them. My self-imposed schedule prompts me to keep moving on to new material. But since I believe the benefits of re-reading are valuable, I'm aiming to get over this bad habit. Do I always read the synopsis?: Yeah, definitely, along with blurbs and reviews. Apart from helping me not waste my time on books I wouldn't enjoy, I appreciate the little carrots of anticipation which we'd miss if we begin novels with no clues whatsoever. This is way different from seeking spoilers. Favourite Reading Format: The paperback, closely followed by the hard cover. E-books have their place but there's nothing like physically turning pages. New or Used Books: I've become a great fan of used or secondhand, as the photo shows. Along with the jumps back in time, they are far more economical. I do buy the occasional brand new book though. Now, if you'd like to share your own answers, please consider yourself tagged 😁

💙 BLUE MONDAY REVIEW 💙 @womensprize shortlist - book 1 I spent this weekend immersed in an unnamed woman’s experience of early motherhood thanks to Claire Kilroy’s incredible Soldier Sailor. Although a fairly short book the impact is not lessened in any way. This book left a visceral impression and I was transported back to the anxiety, isolation, confusion and overwhelm of those early months and years. Very much a feminist exploration of the experience of motherhood, the husband in this book is utterly useless and I was left furious with him at several points. But there is balance as ‘the friend’ is portrayed as a fantastic father - this is not a book which simply rubbishes men in order to explore the experience of women. “A new mother is not peaceful but in a jittery state of high alert. We declare her serene so we can leave her to it. So we can behold the glittering surface, remark on its beauty, and walk away”. I loved this book and consider it a fantastic start to my Women’s Prize reading this year. I have five more of the shortlist to get through before the winner is announced on 12 June but Soldier Sailor is an auspicious start. I look forward to the rest of my reading. Have you read Soldier Sailor yet? #womensprize #womensprizeforfiction #book #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagramuk #bookblog #bookblogger #bookcover #bookphoto #bookpic #bluemonday #bookish #bookishcontent #bookreview #bookrecommendation #igreads #igbooks #booksofinstagram #booktalk #bookchat #bookthoughts #bibliophile #fiction #fictionbook #readerslife #reader #lovebooks #lovereading #literature

I listened to this on audio today while I was painting doors. (We are in the midst of some renovations.) It was a recommendation from the @booktalketc podcast. It’s a novella set in rural Ireland about a little girl sent to live with another family for a summer. She doesn’t know when she will return home, but finds when she gets there that this home is full of love, and much different from the house she came from. I was fully immersed in the story, and was enjoying it so much I didn’t want it to end, much like the little girl felt at the end of her summer. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 ❤️📚 #bookstagram #booksbooksbooks #book #amreading #reading #read #readmorebooks #booklover #bookworm #bookaddict #alwaysreading #booknerd #bibliophile #book #bookish #ilovetoread #reader #ReadersLife #novella #clairekeegan #bookreview #bookreviewer #audiobook #booknerd

At one time or another, all these vampires are definitely not okay and they deal with it in their own ways. Blood anyone? And thanks to @brindiful for letting me use this pic and making this cover! 😍

📚 Book Review - In Cheap We Trust The Story of a Misunderstood American Virtue by Lauren Weber ⭐⭐⭐ This was from my TBR shelf and satisfied the "I" of my journey this year to read the alphabet... I kinda chopped off the author's name, so I made sure to list it above. I received this from a @goodreads win in 2009. I went to review it, also, on Goodreads and founds this: "This is interesting. It's one of those books that makes you want to make someone else close to you read -- so you can discuss it. There are a lot of points Weber makes that point to why we got here (this economic mess)." Ha! This is what I wrote in 2009 - and I forgot I read it - DUH - even when I put it on my "currently reading" status. But, I needed an "I" book for my reading the alphabet challenge, and I wanted to take as many books from my TBR bookshelf, so mission accomplished. All I can say is that the more things change, the more they stay the same. 2009 certainly was a volatile time, but 2024 is pretty messy, too! Who knows what the future will hold?! Thank goodness I'm frugal and was raised by frugal parents and hopefully have enough pennies saved to make it, whichever the way the winds end up blowing! #readersofinstagram #bookobsessed #readerslife #alwaysreading #bookreview #bookstagrammer @goodreads @littlebrown #ifihadapennyforeverywordread

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ALIBI BY LYNDA LA PLANTE I found this book bit slow to start with, however it soon picked up and quickly became a book I couldn't put down. Some graphic writer details with in the book. This book reminded me of the TV series Dexter, very similar story line, if you've watched Dexter and enjoyed it you'll probably enjoy this book. #lyndalaplante #lyndalaplantebooks #alibi #murderbook #dexter #dextermorgan #bookreader #bookaday #bookreviewerswanted #booksofinstagram #booksofinstagram #bookreel #bookshelves #bookreviewerswanted #booksbooksbooks #booksofig #booksarelife #bookstagramfeature #booksbooks #readeveryday #readingtorelax #reader #readingfestival #readingtime📖 #readingbooks #readingiscool #readerslife #readingaddict #readingtorelaxabit #readinglist #readmorebooks #readingcommunity

"Tutti i libri del mondo non ti danno la felicità, però in segreto ti rinviano a te stesso. Lì c’è tutto ciò di cui hai bisogno, sole, stelle, luna. Perché la luce che cercavi vive dentro di te. La saggezza che hai cercato a lungo in biblioteca ora brilla in ogni foglio, perché adesso è tua." ~ Hermann Hesse 📖💛🌺 #quotes #booksquotes #citazioni #booksaremylife #booksarelove #booksaremyhappyplace #hermannhesse #leggere #readersofinstagram #readerslife #edits

I shall neither confirm nor deny that I have things needing to get done today. I will, however, confirm that I spent five hours this morning reading in my swing. Sometimes you just have to decide that cleaning can wait because there are better things to do.

#WhatThisWeek Doing 🖐️ Started the week biking through ice and snow with @christeneanne to get icecream of all things - and then ended the week with a lot of time out in the sun. In between: Check if my sleep apnea has worsened (would alos like to start a petition that if stuff is supposed to be measured during sleep let's maybe not have measuring equipment which makes it almost impossible to sleep), visiting my grandmother, wage work, and working on my first text for the #Vorzeichen project (see, for example, @goetheinstitut_london for more info). But most of all being enraged about the ongoing policing and criminialisation of protest. Reading 📖 Finished four books this week and all of them were great. Especially loved diving into the queer wild and weird in Margaret and the Mystery of the Missing Body and The Faggots and Their Friends Between Revolutions. Watching 💻 Started watching Girls5Eva and so far thoroughly enjoying this. Listening 🎧 So happy Liz Brasher's new album Baby Damn is out. Had already the first single Room to Ride on my playlist with favourite songs of 2024 and now enjyong the whole album. Enjoying 💜 Full moon. The peonies my mother got me. Car free Straße des 17. Juni. #readerslife #igbooks #goodreads #instamoment [Image descriptions: 1: Red peonies in a vase. 2: Selfie of me outside in the sun wearing sunglasses and headphones. 3: Album cover of Liz Brasher's Baby Damn. 4: Laptop with stickers and two books (Angry Cripples and I'm A Queerfeminist Cyborg, That's Okay) lie on a bench. 5: A cat sits in an open window. 6: Selfie of me with cable going to my nose from measuring instrument around my chest. 7: The full moon between some clouds. 8: My hand holding an icecream cup.

I almost completely forgot yesterday was Indie Bookstore Day. I spent most of the morning running errands and actually taking care of my car. I was going to stop by a bookstore during all that, but there was an event going on and parking/driving gets stressful. So I told Keith about it, and he rushed after work to get ready and drove me over. Then he knew I had my eye on the Emily Henry tote and asked if there were any in the back. 🥰 Very thankful for Saturdays that are both productive and cozy and spent with my boogs. #bookstagram #book #booktok #books #bookrecommendations #booklover #bookaddict #bibliophile #bookish #bookstack #read #reader #readerslife #readingislife #reading #readmorebooks #readersofinstagram #readersofig #booksofinstagram

☀️ Good Sunday Morning Besties ☀️ How are you all doing??? Whatcha up to today??? . . I gotta tell you guys that I have been feeling amazing these last few days. I’ve been on a low fat diet along with watching my macros and I have already seen a drastic changes in my body. I used to eat a lot of fast food and premade meals and I could just feel myself bloating so bad after every meal. I’ve decided enough is enough and I’m no longer going to be eating out! Plus it’s expensive! My husband and I have been buying fresh ingredients at our local food market and have been making the most delicious foods!! My bloating has vanished and I feel overall more energetic!!! It’s crazy how much the food you put into your body impacts your mental health. I also gotta thank the lovely @siennablackheart for many helpful tips. You the best 💕! . . I’m finishing up throne of glass this weekend and I forgot how cringe chaol is in this first book…. Also how if he the captain of the kings guard but hasn’t killed anyone??? The king is notorious for being ruthless. I’d imagine the caption would be as well. Oh well we still love him. Onto book two shortly!!! . . . #throneofglass #bookish #bookishlove #bookishpost #read #reading #readmorebooks #tbrlist #tog #maasilovesyoualot❤️💋 #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #readersgonnaread #readersofinstagram #readerslife #bookcommunity

Since my return from Cuba, a month ago now, I've read two memoir-style biographies about Ernest Hemingway, and reread his autofictional 'Moveable Feast.' I know more about the man than I ever did before. Some good, some not so good, perhaps, but I will not criticize the man, or stand in judgment, now. After all, Hemingway was a great writer, one who'd cast a bigger shadow than I could ever hope to cast. Okay, so yes, like myself, like my absconding father, with his sailor's heart and wandering eye, like my less-than-saintly mother, who was born on this day, in 1930, 'Papa' H also had his faults. But then who among us doesn't, eh? 'Critics are men who watch a battle from a high place then come down and shoot the survivors.' -- Ernest Hemingway #writerslife #poetslife #readerslife #booknerd #trailwalker #literatureontherun #trailwalk #therez #walkabout #ernesthemingway #hemingway #amoveablefeast #hemingwayquote #literaturejunkie #literature #booklover #throughthewoods #naturewalk #springday

I’m not saying a fabulous suspense novel is the perfect accompaniment to monitoring swim classes, but… yes, I suppose I’m saying exactly that. I’ve read mixed reviews about “The Housemaid,” but I’m thoroughly enjoying it. I started this book a month or two ago and became so deliciously anxious I had to stop around chapter 30…. but I’m about to grow a pair and jump back in 😆 If that’s not the mark of a good suspense novel, I don’t know what is. Everyone in this story has a secret, and the tension has been building unbearably. There’s an attic bedroom that ominously locks from the outside, a creepy little girl who only wears starched dresses (I picture a hybrid between the twins from “The Shining” movie and Carol Anne from “Poltergeist”), a stay at home mom who is at turns obsessive about every tiny detail and also a walking pig-pen, a too good to be true businessman husband (recalling that Olympia Dukakis line from “Steel Magnolias” circa 1989, that he’s so perfect he may as well have “been carved from cream cheese”… which feels extra terrifying), and a handsome Italian gardener, who repeatedly warns the protagonist she’s in danger (in broken English, with haunted eyes). The proverbial shit is about to hit the fan, and I feel as if I’m teetering at the starting drop of a massive rollercoaster- and that alone is delicious, whatever happens from here. And have I mentioned the protagonist is an ex-convict who was estranged from her family, for reasons the author has yet to reveal?
