May! Already.
I'm reading Lucky Turtle by Bill Roorbach Lucky Turtle for Booktopia next weekend and War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy War and Peace - I've been reading a chapter a day since the beginning of the year.
And, I'm listening to How Strange a Season by Megan Mayhew Bergman How Strange a Season.

Hopefully it will get warm and stay that way very soon.

Julie M (woolyjooly) | 314 comments I'm reading The Mothers by Brit Bennett, Just in time for Mother's Day! The Vanishing Half was SOOO good, I had to pick up this author's earlier novel.

In addition to my chapter a day of War and Peace by Leo Tolstoy War and Peace, I'm readinng Cokie A Life Well Lived by Steven V. Roberts Cokie: A Life Well Lived, This Will Not Pass Trump, Biden and the Battle for American Democracy by Jonathan Martin [bookThis Will Not Pass: Trump, Biden and the Battle for American Democracy|59577818] and listening to Wildland The Making of America's Fury by Evan Osnos Wildland: The Making of America's Fury.

I would say the Booktopia books which included Lucky Turtle, Six Walks: In the Footsteps of Henry David Thoreau, and Country of Origin.

Since posting above, I've finished Cokie: A Life Well Lived and Galatea by Madeline Miller Galatea.
