Barbara is starting Renia's Diary: A Holocaust Journal
I’ve had this on the shelf in my office for awhile now. Seems like the right time to read it.

Barbara is on page 192 of 376 of The Pumpkin Spice Café (Dream Harbor, #1)
Took this up because it reminded me of Gilmore Girls with the Luke and Lorelei storyline. Hopefully it goes better than that show did!

Barbara is on page 108 of 626 of A Court of Mist and Fury (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #2)
is it possible the writing has gotten worse from the first book? I’m not expecting Shakespeare here but still…

Barbara is 70% done with The Second Life of Mirielle West
This book has interesting moments and characters but is overall a slog. Too slow paced.

Barbara is starting XOXO, Cody: An Opinionated Homosexual's Guide to Self-Love, Relationships, and Tactful Pettiness
“But I am here to say that nobody, for example, needs a wooden live laugh love sign from Home Goods in their living room. They just don’t. It’s time to elevate your decor. You’re welcome Susan.”

Amen - I’m in Cody!

Barbara is on page 211 of 384 of Carrie Soto Is Back
TJR references Daisy Jones and the Six here. I didn’t realize she set a few of her books in the same universe. Kind of cool!

Barbara is on page 417 of 432 of Summer of '69
"Blair gets desperately thirsty the instant the twins latch on and beer is supposed to increase a mother's milk supply." The amount of alcohol this woman has consumed during pregnancy and in postpartum is out of control.

Barbara is on page 27 of 248 of Thick: And Other Essays
"Smart is only a construct of correspondence, between one's abilities, one's environment, and one's moment in history. I am smart in the right way, in the right time, on the right end of globalization." Well said.

Barbara is on page 323 of 746 of Blonde
This book is a mountain of a read but good so far. The more I read though the more I wonder how good this will be as a film seems like there's way too much to cover.

This book is a bit of a snooze so far. Hope it picks up in the back end.

Barbara is on page 68 of 637 of The Blind Assassin
Wanted to re-read this one. I remember loving it and with the reintroduction of Margaret Atwood, I want to see if this one still remains my favorite of hers.
