SAL/SPL Adult Summer Reading Book Bingo Recap
My thoughts on the Seattle Art and Lecture/Seattle Public Library Adult Summer Reading Book Bingo… this year honestly was a real challenge for me.
Book Review: The Swans of Harlem by Karen Valby
Let me go ahead and tell you the coolest thing about this book: at the time of recording the audiobook, all five of the featured dancers were still alive.
Book Review: Plain Jane and the Mermaid by Vera Brosgol
I am happy to say that Plain Jane and the Mermaid by Vera Brosgol was an absolute delight and I read it in a single sitting.
Book Review: Love at 350° by Lisa Peers
I love a good slow burn, but Tori and Kendra spend so little time together on the page, that when their happy ending finally arrived, I wasn’t particularly convinced by or invested in it.
Book Review: A Letter to the Luminous Deep by Sylvie Cathrall
This novel is pure epistolary; while some books advertised as epistolaries intersperse more narrative chapters between the correspondence, everything in this book happens in a letter or other communication.
Book Review: Triple Sec by TJ Alexander
Triple Sec by AJ Alexander is a romance about a bartender which actually, gets this, has scenes of the main character tending bar and coming up with new cocktail recipes.
Book Review: Evicted by Matthew Desmond
Housing is a human right. We all just want to find a home where we feel safe and can build a life worth living.
Book Review: A Sorceress Comes to Call by T. Kingfisher

Book Review: Weird Women edited by Lisa Morton and Leslie S. Klinger
Sometimes, when choosing books for Book Bingo, I make bad decisions.
