Marisa Gettas is on page 68 of 256 of A Two-Spirit Journey
For me the audiobook turns this into a more ‘digestible’ read from the print copy, by establishing the tone and providing narrative tension where needed. I find the print copy is reading ‘drier’ for me because I read very quickly with my eyes, while audio forces me to slowdown and really take in the words. I’m enjoying it so far…

Marisa Gettas is on page 84 of 438 of Some Desperate Glory
Through a review I’ve been surprised to learn that this was marketed as adult and not YA. Really? Huh, that’s a choice.

This book is phenomenal. Building off the first in the series, this book immerses you further into the lives in and around Sugar Island.

This is so not what I thought it would be, and not in a good way. I do not want to pick it back up again. Not sure I will finish this.

Marisa Gettas is starting The Dragonet Prophecy (Wings of Fire Graphic Novel, #1)
My nephews (6 & 8) and I started reading the Wings of Fire series in the chapter book form—it was too gory and violent for us, so we switched to the graphic novel on the advice of our librarian, and this is much better for the kids!

I’m struggling to read, as my PTSD was triggered a few days ago. I save Kresley for just these times. Hopefully she’ll pull me through

Oh, how I love a fully fleshed out secondary love story. And I LOVE that in the secondary couple, we have a 50 year old and a 43 year old! Why did we stop doing this in romance?

It took me until now to realize I read this book in 2018. The joys of not remembering specifics is that if you wait, a book becomes new to you again, lol

Marisa Gettas is on page 116 of 240 of A Mind Spread Out on the Ground
"Capitalism forever positions itself as the solution to the problems of Capitalism." This essay collection is phenomenal. If I had the power, I'd make it required reading for all in North America, regarding the atrocities Indigenous Peoples were, and are, subject to.

This in audio is absolutely fantastic. The author is a Canadian Inuk Throat Singer and she narrates the book. She’s interspersing throat singing between different parts of the book and it’s stunning. The best audiobook I have ever heard.

I love narrative non-fiction so much—this is starting off so fantastically. And it’s a WWII narrative that I’ve never read before, which is a refreshing change
