Thank you for this list, wonderful Chrissy! I am a library fanatic. So happy to have your recommendations to add to my line-up. Also that heatwave crushed me. Also I'm waiting to watch this LI season until I can watch it in one ridiculous marathon -- but then I will WELCOME your analysis 😂 Sending you love xoxo

Me and the library go together real bad LOL. I love the library. I can't believe you're holding off and watching the entire season at the end. How are you avoiding the spoilers?

lol I avoid the spoilers by being completely out of touch with all pop culture -- but I do have to tell my friend to STFU if they're watching. I just looooove a marathon watch!!

Thank you so much for such a great list! I currently have two boxes of books in my trunk from the library to sort through! I feel strongly about supporting the library and can usually find most of what I'm searching for there! ❤️❤️💖💖🎉🎉

Thank you for this list! I loved historical fiction and also murder mysteries where I learned about another culture or era, etc and I have sworn off of fiction for several years because I couldn’t find anything that had substance along with good writing. You have given me hope! I just borrowed a couple of these onto my Libby app and put a couple more on hold! I’m very excited.

Yay! I hope you like some of them. I haven't gotten into murder mysteries but maybe I should branch out and give them a try.

All the baristas at my coffee shop yesterday were gossiping and comparing favorites on Love Island and I somehow got involved in this and roped into promising I'd watch it and report back - between this and your fantastic post about Love Is Blind (the only reality dating show I've ever watched and unfortunately got totally addicted to), I'm really hoping you DO post an article about LI soon, for my own sake 😅

I am a Kennedy Ryan STAN. I have also met her several times in real life and she's such a gem.

Thank you for your recommendations! I heard/read somewhere that maybe ebooks from libraries will no longer be funded or get federal funding. Has anyone else heard this? I hope I am wrong. The library and reading is my sanctuary and ebooks and audio books are so much easier to read as one gets older.

Yes, unfortunately, some libraries are losing funding and it will impact ebooks. It's so sad and disheartening.

Wow! This is such a good list. I have been in a major slump and haven’t found something to lift me out of it yet. But just from your descriptions, I’m excited for so many of these! Your upcoming reads great too. Thanks so much for sharing 🙏🏾

Yay! I hope you like some of them. I hate a reading slump so I hope at least one of them pulls you out.
