Well that was a mistake. I added six books to my already gigantic TBR.

Well, I was relieved when there were several already on my TBR. I still added even more because a TBR can never be too big but always sits on the edge of too small. Regardless of how massive it is.

Thank you for posting these lists. I hurt while I read the list - I will never get through all of them. How can NPR go wrong? peace, janz
I usually love the NPR picks. I’m glad to see The Ministry of Time by Kaliane Bradley on the list. It’s a debut and we’re planning a buddy read for it in July.
The nonfiction books look really interesting too. A couple fit the July letters
Burn Book: A Tech Love Story by Kara Swisher
Invisible Rulers: The People Who Turn Lies into Reality by Renee DiResta
Smoke and Ashes: A Writer's Journey through Opium's Hidden Histories By Amitav Ghosh
Towards the end of the year, NPR will publish their "Best of 2024" list, which I always think is one of the best lists of top books.I haven't read many of the books mentioned here (and some I've tried, but found not to my liking.) The two that I liked were: The Fox Wife and Table for Two.
I added 4 but I already had 4 on my Want to Read and 3 on my Owned (already purchased but not read). I may have shared with this group before that when I think of someday no longer being on earth, I don't first think of missing my family, but of all the new books I will miss out on!
