Books read in June
Jul. 1st, 2021 04:47 pmA genre hybrid: The Devil and the Dark Water by Stuart Turton (May 28-June 5). I LOVED the 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle, so I was excited to read this one too. Mysteries on a ship in the middle of the ocean, oh yeah! I also thought it seemed very similar to the story of the Batavia, where this guy wrecked the ship on purpose and lead a mutiny, killing many people, and sure enough, at the end of the book, the author said he had visited Australia and heard that story, and was inspired to write a novel similar to that story. I'm excited to see what his next book will be about!
A book from your TBR list chosen at random: The Raven's Gift by Don Rearden (June 5-9)
A book that has a heart, diamond, club, or spade on the cover: Black Butterfly by Mark Gatiss (June 10-14). I was excited when Denise found a box set of Cherry the Second's books, and even more so when one of the books matched a challenge topic..it was meant to be :P
A book that has fewer than 1,000 reviews on Amazon or Goodreads: Dancing on Ice by Jeremy Scott (June 15-18)
A book you think your best friend would like: Mind of the Raven: Investigations and Adventures with Wolf-Birds by Heinrich Bernd (June 19-25). Ravens are fascinating, and so smart!
A book about art or an artist: Still Life by Louise Penny (June 27-29). Her books are super popular at work lol
( the topics )
( and a long book bolding survey! )
