Still hooked on this series

The Memory of Babel: The Mirror Visitor Book 3 by Christelle Dabos

September 16, 2022 by ElCicco Leave a Comment

Cbr14bingo Hot the action moves from the icy land called the Pole to a hot and lush place called Babel The plot definitely thickens in this third installment of the four part Mirror Visitor series. The action moves into two different areas as Ophelia and Thorn pursue the one called “God,” aka “Milliface,” a malevolent shapeshifter that tries to manipulate all of the arks in order to assert total domination over the world. As with the previous novels, Dabos gives readers plenty of edge-of-your-seat action […]

CBR14 Bingo – Week 9 Check-in

September 15, 2022 by Emmalita Leave a Comment

Welcome to the Week 9 CBR 14 Bingo Check-in! You can see the card and the rules on the kick-off post. This week’s mood: We’re With the Banned. While getting ready for #CannonBookClub’s discussions of All Boys Aren’t Blue, The 1619 Project, and The Hate U Give, I was again reminded that while the state I live in is doing the most to be the worst, books and libraries are being challenged all over. So, I thought I’d offer some resources for fighting book banning. […]

A Gendered History

Gender: A World History by Susan Kingsley Kent

September 14, 2022 by faintingviolet Leave a Comment

Gender: A World History found its way to my ears (I went audiobook form for this one) due to a sale. For $2.99 this sounded like just the sort of thing I’d like to read. For the most part this book did fit my needs and meets the criteria of being as advertised: this was in fact a history that was serious about being global in scope and a historical survey of the topic of gender and how it has been understood through the ages. […]

Pack of Lies

“It seemed absurd, a monster going monster hunting. But why not?”

Pack of Lies by Charlie Adhara

September 14, 2022 by llamareadsbooks 1 Comment

CBR14Bingo – Star: Julien’s the sort of actor who’s mostly recognizable, but his glory days seem to be behind him. I deeply loved the Big Bad Wolf series, so while I was happy to see Cooper and Oliver finally get their HEA I was sad to say goodbye to the world. Well, luckily we have a new spinoff series starring Eli. While he was a character in past books (and there’s more cameos as well), I’d say you could pick this up as a standalone, […]

“I was thirty-seven years old and still discovering who I was.”

My Life in France by Julia Child, Alex Prud'Homme

September 14, 2022 by faintingviolet 4 Comments

The story of Julia Child’s years in France in her own words was literally the second book I put on my Goodreads to read list in January 2012. It has taken me this long to get to it, but I’m perfectly happy to have waited until I was in the right mood – even though this book made me hungry every time I picked it up. My Life in France is exactly what the title says it is. For most people the contents of this […]

The Journalist and the Eternal Questions

The Journalist and The Murderer by Janet Malcolm

How to Be Perfect by Michael Shur

September 14, 2022 by booktrovert 2 Comments

CBR Bingo – Scandal (The Journalist and the Murderer)/ Questions (How to Be Perfect)(and a Bingo!) I finished How to be Perfect on audiobook, listening most of the time with a car full of children (with only a few cringing moments at the mention of some notable sex scandals). It seemed apt for the beginning of the school year – a sort of shallow deep-dive into the field of moral philosophy, as they begin to form their new classroom communities. It’s such a great question to […]
