Yes must gear up for Love and Ruin! I’m already on the List for that one. McLain won’t disappoint with Martha Gellhorn as a subject. Such a fascinating person & relationship! I think I have her biography on my shelves so far unread.

Thank you so much for vetting The Parking Lot Attendant! I’m crossing it off my list.

On the flip side, I’ve heard nothing about The Gunners but am adding it to my library holds- so I guess it’s a wash, one book off, one book on!

I’m so ready to lay out a blanket in my yard and watch the kids play with a book in hand! I’m ready whenever spring is ready to show up.

I’ll Be Gone in the Dark sounds so interesting, but I know that I would be unable to sleep at 2 in the morning, jumping at the sound of the ice maker or the heat turning back on.

Thank you so much for the mentions, Susie; I really appreciate it! I had a tough time moving on from The Gunners; what an amazing read. I’m still very excited to read Anatomy of a Miracle but, since I’ve been eagerly anticipating The Female Persuasion and my copy has arrived, I’m going to read it first! I hope you’re having a great week!

In reply to Susie.

Ooh, high praise. Damn it, now I have to put it on the must-list, when I just this weekend started a “Clear the TBR Shelves” project. 🙂

I completely agree. Some, in another context, I would not at all have interpreted as a “brush with death.” Taken as a whole, it did make for compelling reading. It’s a difficult task to think about. How close to that car accident (or X experience) did you have to be to count it? I’m impressed you came up with four, you’re 1/3 of the way to a book.

In reply to renee. Of course, Renee. While it's true I didn't love The Family Next Door, I've had many other recommendations from you that I did. I think you'll really like The Gunners and just remember with Anatomy that it's a little slow the first 20%. You have a wonderful week, too.

In reply to Madeline. Hmmm... I loved The Bookseller, but her next book, The Glass Forest, wasn't nearly as successful for me.
