Hello!  What's everyone getting into this month? I'm reading The Owl Killers by Karen Maitland and listening to The Good Wife of Bath by Karen Brooks. 

Hopefully you guys find me!  LOL! 

I finished The Owl Killers by Karen Maitland last evening.  It was good.  Not as good as Company of Liars, so I was a little disappointed.  COL is on my list of all-time faves.  I immediately dived in to another Maitland book, The Vanishing Witch. Still listening to The Good Wife of Bath. 

REK & Carolyn - I had totally forgotten about Karen Maitland too.  I read and loved COL, and then I promptly forgot about her.  When I was recently compiling a list of all-time favorite books, COL made the list which prompted me to wonder if she had other books.  Imagine my surprise to find that COL was her second book, and she had written several since then.  The most recent, I believe in 2017 or 2018.  I am now on a mission to read all of them.  And, REK, The Good Wife of Bath is very good so far. 

Ah, Shelley, found a copy of The Good Wife of Bath by Karen Brooks at our library.  Thanks for sharing your impressions.  I really appreciate it.  Need to tell you that Ioved, loved this book.  Couldn't put it down.  Yes, it was a five star read.

Just read Emma Donoghue's The Wonder.  Much of it was depressing and hard to read but I liked the ending so it rated 4 stars from me after all.
 

I finished The House of Eve by  Sadeqa Johnson. Set in late 1940s early 1950s. excellent book Covers many discrimation issues, education and motherhood. I highly recommend.

I'm currently reading The Whiskey Rebels by David Liss.  It's been on my shelf for ages!  I enjoyed his other books.

Kristin has a new Historical fiction and mystery swap open.. One of my favorites.

Welp.  I had to DNF The Whiskey Rebels.  I was 130 pages in and not much had happened.  Of the two main characters, I enjoyed Joan's storyline, but it wasn't enough to keep me pushing through this book.  Unfortuante, since I loved Liss' other books.

Anyway, I started Paulo Coelho's The Alchemist.  Not HF, but I am enjoying it so far.  Seems like a quick read.

Hello!  Sorry to be MIA for most of the month.  Summer is such a busy time.  I finished The Vanishing Witch by Karen Maitland.  Pretty good.  I'm still listening to  The Good Wife of Bath.  Glad you enjoyed it, REK.  I'm liking it too, but it seems I rarely have time to listen. I started reading The Winter Garden by Kristin Hannah.
