“Vulnerability is not oversharing, it’s sharing with people who have earned the right to hear our stories and our experiences. Vulnerability is not weakness; it’s our greatest measure of courage.”

Atlas of the Heart: Mapping Meaningful Connection and the Language of Human Experience by Brene Brown

November 7, 2022 by cheerbrarian Leave a Comment

In one word: Mind-Altering Cannonball Read Bingo: Heart I was already a big Brene Brown fan before I opened this book, so I knew to steel myself for something that was going to teach me, challenge me, and break my brain a little bit. Guess what? That's exactly what happened! This is not … [Read more]

Rated PG-16 and odd

Artichoke Tales by Megan Kelso

November 7, 2022 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Artichoke Tales by Megan Kelso is a very odd book. At first, I was enjoying this slow-paced story that seemed to have a point. But while I was busy trying to figure out who was who (as the artichoke heads and same tunic clothing made everyone look the same) I was sideswiped. There is a switch in the … [Read more]

November 7, 2022 by Classic Leave a Comment

Well one funny thing is that I had forgotten how terrible some of the covers are on these later installments. I also totally forgot an entire book (Salvation in Death). The one good thing about reading/posting reviews of the series this year is that I had flat out forgotten some of the stories out … [Read more]

A quiet, surprisingly intense emotional reading experience

The Colony by Audrey Magee

November 6, 2022 by booktrovert Leave a Comment

Lloyd, an English artist, takes a boat (not the kind with a motor - a currach, which I had to look up because I was unfamiliar with traditional Irish boats) to a remote Irish island at the edge of Europe in 1979. The artist intends to paint a masterpiece there - all while being a huge pain in the … [Read more]
