Sherry  | 4515 comments i have no idea where the month of June went but I only read 2 books (am reading another but don't think I'll finish it by tomorrow)

How to Age Disgracefully- clare pooley- read with my F2F book club and everyone liked it which is very unusual. the camaraderie among the characters reminded me of the thursday murder club.
The Bullet That Missed- richard osman. I've read all of the others but somehow missed this one- enjoyed it and was good to "visit" with them again
Blood Sisters- vanessa lillie

I think so- but I forgot one- so just added it, bringing the grand total to 3!

Ann (annrumsey) | 16925 comments Sherry, three good books is a good month. 😀 I agree with Carol, hope you have some beach time and opportunities for additional reading in your future. You have certainly had book related activities at the book store. I like the idea of disgracefully aging so will check that one out! Lol

Ann (annrumsey) | 16925 comments Sherry, how did you like Blood Sisters? I think I’ll try it too.

i'm on vanessa's advanced reader's team and I hadn't read blood sisters so I figured i'd better get to it before her traveling ARC of The Bone Thief arrives at my house later this month! lol
I did like it, although it was distracted for much of the month and it took me way too long to read it. I'm looking forward to the next in the series.

GailW (abbygg) | 520 comments I seem to be in the mood for lighter fare these days, and this sentence caught my eye for the Clare Pooley book: "...but when age makes you invisible, secrets are so much easier to hide." This sounds like fun!
