How’s the weather?
We got cold again! We should have some nice spring days this week, though.
What are you reading?
Tom Lake by Ann Patchett, performed by Meryl Streep, was such a treat. It’s set partially in a summer stock theater a few decades ago and partially during the first summer of the pandemic. I wasn’t talented enough to be more than a chorus member in theater, but I hung around theater kids (including my brother) enough to get a kick out of that setting.
For my next audio book, I searched on the name of the reader of Romantic Comedy, Kristen Sieh, and checked out Ashton Hall by Lauren Belfer. This is the first time that I chose an audiobook using that method. It worked for me. I’m devouring this book as quickly as I did Tom Lake.
After a false start (I DNFed a very popular book that I was sure I was going to like), I found an e-book for my phone that is also working, so far — Beach Read by Emily Henry.
What are you watching?
I enjoyed Good Omens 2 and wrote a review revealing why it was just my kind of weird.
What are you doing?
Our book group had one of our best discussions ever in our 15-year history about Jane Crow: The Life of Pauli Murray by Rosalind Rosenberg. I wrote a long review covering lots of what we learned and talked about.
I enjoyed compiling my Spring TBR on Tuesday, even if I already DNFed one of the books on it.
How are you this fine Sunday?
