Some insights:
  • Some really loooooong ones:  In Cold Blood and Gone with the Wind
  • Five of the ten connected to a book club.
  • One based on Shakespeare and his Romeo and Juliet...very good read.
  • Four "light" reads...easy, but fun and enjoyable.
  • Still reading more on an eReader...which I never thought I would like...but I do!
  • Two are from my TBR pile.  Yay!  Really want to read more from my many bookcases!
Current Read:  The Nightingale  by Kristin Hannah.  Such an intense book set during World War I in Paris (and other places).  This tells the "real" story of two ladies who assisted in helping many pilots escape and saving several babies from death.  Just an almost scary read as I realize who quickly this very situation could occur in our very own country.  This book is the first of my 12 Books 12 Friends 12 Months Book Challenge, one I would like to quit...but just cannot because I am committed, and books like this must be read. Just a must.

What are you reading good in 2024?
