I’m reading “Drive” for this print. The book is so good so far! Love that it has a link to Spotify for all the chapters to listen to the music as you read!
Dolfje Weerwolfje, I am trying to learn Dutch and during this year I am hoping to be able to read this myself, all the way through.

Dark Horses by Susan Mihalic.
'Dreamland: The True Tale Of America's Opiate Epidemic' by Sam Quinones. Just finished reading this today and it was absolutely brilliant. I've never read anything by this author before, but based on this book alone I'd definitely check out anything else he's written. It would work as a perfect companion piece to 'Dopesick' by Beth Macy as it takes the same underlying subject matter but goes off in a totally different, fascinating direction. 5/5 stars from me.
Completion Post:Just finished reading: "Daisy Jones & The Six" written by Taylor Jenkins Reid (★★★★☆), it is a contemporary and historical fiction novel that follows the iconic 1970s rock band: Daisy Jones and The Six and the mysterious reasoning the musicians suddenly disbanded at the height of their careers.
Reid mimics the style of a tell-all celebrity memoir by a character whose identity remains secret until the very end. The narrative is propulsive, original, and often raw as there is excellent buildup around answering the big question at what happened during the final concert, which unfortunately didn’t stick the landing that well.
Deadly Harvest (Flynn Brothers, #2)by Heather Graham

Salem MA and scary\mystery story - what could be better! The plot here is around legend of the Harvest Man. Nice twist, instead of the standard witch theme for this area.
The Deadly Hours: an anthology by Susanna Kearsley, C.S. Harris, Anna Lee Huber and Christine Trent. https://cdnbookworm.blogspot.com/2021...
I read Deserts, Driving, & Derelicts by Tonya Kappes I was originally selecting D: A Tale of Two Worlds but read this one and decided to use it and save the other

I listened to “Dust Tracks on the Road” an autobiography by Zora Neale Huston. This was a “flight pick” for the Modern Mrs. Darcy Book Club. Excellent narration by Bahni Turpin
I went with "The Duke and I" by Julia Quinn because I inhaled Bridgerton during the beginning of second Ontario lockdown
I'm going to use either Dubliners by James Joyce (TBR) or Daniel Deronda by George Eliot (currently in progress) for this one.
I'm currently listening to the audiobook of Daisy Jones & The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid for this prompt. I'm a little over a quarter of the way through and am enjoying it so far. The audiobook is a full cast production, so I definitely like that aspect. Plus, one of the characters is voiced by Benjamin Bratt, and I adore him.
