Books on My Spring 2022 TBR

These have gotten a lot easier since joining book clubs! I still had to look up a few more though to see what else is coming out--there've been a couple of recent and upcoming new releases that I'm very excited about but waiting until I have time to read, since the book club reads have to come first. Happy Purim and happy St. Patrick's Day to those celebrating this week!

Happy Top Ten Tuesday over at That Artsy Reader Girl!


Books on My Spring 2022 TBR

  1. The German House by Annette Hess (Book club read for April)--I know, it made me think of The Dutch House too, but this is a totally different book, about the Frankfurt trials for SS personnel involved in Auschwitz, which took place in the 1960s. I didn't know about this, and I avoid Holocaust books these days since I've already read so many, but this sounds different, so it might be interesting. It's also originally written in German, translated to English.
  2. This Time Next Year We'll Be Laughing by Jacqueline Winspear (other book club read for March)--I've already got this memoir out of the library but haven't started yet. Hope it's funny!
  3. In the Serpent's Wake by Rachel Hartman--I absolutely loved Tess of the Road, so I'm heavily anticipating an equally poignant sequel!
  4. Dreams Bigger Than Heartbreak by Charlie Jane Anders--I love everything by CJA but also highly anticipating the fun thrilling sequel to the adventure-driven YA space opera Victories Greater Than Death
  5. The Witch Collector by Charissa Weaks--my husband found this on one of my want-to-read lists and bought it for me for Valentine's Day so now I can read it!
  6. What to Miss When by Leigh Stein--one of the only books I still have left to read from the Hanukkah books my parents bought from my Hanukkah want-to-read list. 
  7. You've Been Volunteered by Laurie Gelman (Book club read for May)--the members of this book club really enjoyed her other books, so I'm looking forward to a humorous read.

Book Review: The Speed of Clouds by Miriam Seidel

Book Review: The Speed of Clouds by Miriam Seidel *To Be Released from New Door Books on April 10, 2018* Mindy Vogel is haunted by the future. In frequent daydreams, she toggles between her real, wheelchair-bound life and the adventurous life of her fanfic alter ego, SkyLog officer Kat Wanderer. She's haunted by all that Kat can do which she cannot---belong to an organization of comrades, walk, and fall in love---yet. Because at twenty-four, Mindy's future is very much ahead of her, wheelchair notwithstanding. Through Mindy's "SkyLog" fanzine and related emails, Seidel evokes Star Trek fandom around the turn of the millenium, but also creates a new and compelling science fictional universe, similar to what Rainbow Rowell's Fangirl  does for the Harry Potter fandom with "Simon Snow." Mindy is among the pioneers transitioning fandom from print to digital, boldly encountering like-minded individuals from the comfort of her chair behind the monito...

Books with Single-Word Titles

Inheritance by Christopher Paolini 6. Meditations by Marcus Aurelius 7. Stoned by Aja Raden (has a subtitle) 8. Educated by Tara Westover 9. Fledgling by Octavia Butler 10. Kindred by Octavia Butler

The Ten Most Recent Additions to My Book Collection

 Most of the books I buy these days are ebooks, or books I'm technically "renting" (I guess that's the right term?) on Kindle Unlimited. I also get a few ebooks for review, usually from LibraryThing or directly from authors. Mostly I get books from the library, but I also try to buy/preorder from my favorite authors--sometimes ebooks or sometimes an actual book if I don't have a signed copy from that author yet! Here are the most recent books I've either bought or rented (TBR would be a whole other list!). Happy Top Ten Tuesday over at That Artsy Reader Girl!
