Books I read in January

From top to bottom:
A chick lit that I enjoyed, a nice easy read
A crime story that I really enjoyed, great read
A mystery/thriller that I enjoyed, great read
A general fiction that I enjoyed, nice read
A general fiction that was ok, too flowery
A psychological thriller that I enjoyed, good read

I do enjoy Coben novels, good entertainment. And I listened to Crawdads while on a trip a year or so ago and really loved it. Good to have suggestions for more!

[Casablanca]

Ooh not read any of these - I like your book stacks you do every month. Always so interesting to see what you thought of them.

[JackieR]

I loved "Crawdads" love when I don't get an ending I expected

[Kathy A]

@30pics4jackiesdiamond I did enjoy the little twist at the end

[Graeme Stevens]

You could have taken better care of that first one. Appalling.

[Kathy A]

@graemestevens sorry

[Babs]

Looks like you made a good selection this month.

[Louise]

A bit of a colour theme with all these, blues and pinks! I keep seeing Where the Crawdads Sing everywhere at the moment! I've not read any of these.

[Jennie B.]

Where the Crawdads Sing was one of my favorite books. I finally read one that you have on your list!

[Call me Joe]

❤️👌❤️

[Mags]

You're a good reader! Keep it up and you'll be writing your own. =)

[Diana]

I can only echo all the above!

[Fisher Family]

An interesting and varied collection!

@jb030958 I’ve never heard of anyone not loving that book. I liked it but didn’t love it

[Jon Lip]

Nice composition. Ah books, I love 'em. I'm a slow reader though so only get through about one book a month 😒. Before I retired I worked as an IT trainer in a mental health hospital at Tooting, London. Then to a University hospital in Oxford. Great fun and enjoyed every minute. But I couldn't go on forever!

I like the opportunity to discover new titles and authors. I read "Where the Crawdads Sing" which is set on the coastal side of the state I live on. Not very accurate in some of the traveling, though. Though it was a good read. I just finished a book written in 1924. "The Keeper of the Bees." Wholesome, uplifting, entertaining, suspenseful. I don't often enthusiastically endorse books, but if you are able to lay your hands on a copy of it get it.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

It's always fun to see your assessment of the books you chose. I really do think you should do a blog! Haha- I won't give up on suggesting that!

[Kathy A]

@randystreat thank you for the recommendation, I will keep my eye out for it.

[aikimomm (phoebe)]

You chose well. And The Keeper of the Bees is definitely one to look for, too.

[Kathy A]

@jon_lip I love books too, in fact I forgo doing so many things I should be doing just so I can read. I am a mental health nurse in a prison which is quite stressful so I love to just enter other worlds via books
