glacier_kittyA book mentioned in another book: 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne (Feb. 19-March 1). This was the main character's favorite book in All the Light We Cannot See, and was quoted often..I knew I had to read it when icebergs and the South Pole were mentioned haha. It was interesting, but he didn't have to mention *every* fish in the sea LOL
A book set on a different planet: Artemis by Andy Weir (March 1-5). Well it took place on the Moon..close enough. :P A fun read, but I think The Martian was better
The next book in a series you started: The Grave's a Fine and Private Place by Alan Bradley (March 6-11). YAY a new Flavia de Luce book!! I love that feisty kid LOL, there definitely needs to be a TV series or something based on the books :P
A book published in 2018: The Woman in the Water by Charles Finch (March 12-15). A prequel to the other books, when Charles Lenox first started being a private detective. A good one, and a great twist at the end!
A book with a time of day in the title: Good Morning, Midnight by Lily Brooks-Dalton (March 16-20). LOVED this one!! I thought the cover was beautiful and intriguing, so I had to read the summary..I knew I had to read it when I saw a lot of it took place in the Arctic! (I guess sometimes you *should* judge a book by the cover LOL.) The end leaves you hanging, which is usually annoying, but it worked for this book
