Hahaha, sometimes books have other plans for us. I’m glad you’ve found something that has completely enthralled you, though!

Every time I hear about The Last Animal I am so intrigued by the premise, maybe it’s time to pick it up!

I LOVE All Adults Here. Pineapple Street feels so perfectly springy too! I’m almost done with Ready or Not by Cara Bastone and loving it for spring too!

It’s a slim novel and such a delight! I saw some criticism of it saying that it doesn’t feel like a novel set in present day, but those elements didn’t really bother me.

I will never get through one of your book round ups without putting multiple books on hold at the library! I love a UK setting, so immediately put in a request for You Are Here and the Life Cycle of the Common Octopus. You also reminded me how much I LOVED the Office of Historical Corrections and All Adults Here. I’m going to relisten to those this spring. Thanks for all the reading nudges, Michelle!

I hope so, and a big plus that Anne Tyler is a local author for my group.

A lovely list! And would not be mad if you posted a deliciously sunshiney photo post from your FL trip if you documented it 🌴👀🌞
