"I have only to break into the tightness of a strawberry, and I see summer — its dust and lowering skies." - Toni Morrison, The Bluest Eyes

Today marks the summer solstice, the longest day of the year and the official start of summer. This day brings forth images of fairy rings, a basket brimming with wildflowers, afternoon picnics, evening bonfires, and a whiff of magic. What better day to announce our summer pick for ‘Seasons by the Book’!

Shell (@booksbythecup) and I would love for you to join us, as we read, ‘Summer’ by Edith Wharton. We’ll be reading at a leisurely pace
throughout the month of July, with check-ins midway through and a final discussion at the end of the month. If you’re interested, grab a copy of the book, and we’ll see you next month! ☀️

Mimo, że słyszałam liczne zachwalające opinie o piórze Małgorzaty Falkowskiej, nigdy nie miałam okazji się z nim "spotkać". "Nagranie" to trochę taki debiut autorki z gatunku kryminał. Byłam bardzo ciekawa tej ksiażki i cieszę się, że trafiła moje ręce, jednak czuje niedosyt.
.
W Toruniu giną młodzi mężczyźni w przedziale 22-28 lat. Policja nie ma żadnych śladów, a komisarz Maciej Gorczyński jest załamany brakiem rozwoju sprawy. Gdy do rodzin zaginionych chłopaków docierają nagrania, wspólnie z Sylwią Trojańska, swoją przyjaciółką i kochanką, która posiada dar jasnowidzenia, dostają pierwsze wskazówki i poszlaki o porwaniach. Czy poznają prawdę, zanim będzie za późno?
.
Pomysł na kryminał był naprawdę ciekawy, gadżety, które dostałam od wydawnictwa, pozwoliły mi na zabawę w detektywa i wczuły mnie w cały świat stworzony przez autorkę. Jednak w historii zabrakło napięcia, tempa akcji i emocji. Czytając, ten kryminał nie czułam nic, poza ciekawością. Brakowało mi dreszczyku emocji i krwawego widoku. Wydawało mi się, że autorka bardziej skupiła się na problemie miłosnym komisarza i Sylwii, jak na śledztwie. Gdzie zachowanie bohaterów również było dziwne i niedojrzałe. Opisana akcja była bardzo płytka, a zagadkę, w większości rozwiązały dzieci komisarza? Niestety tak. Duży plus książki to lekkość pióra, które bardzo przypadło mi do gustu i krótkie rozdziały. Kryminały to dość specyficzny gatunek, szczególnie, że ja lubię krwawo i dość mocno. Tutaj mi tego zabrakło. Jednak jak na kryminalny debiut, naprawdę nie jest źle. Myślę, że będą bardziej zadowoleni fani romansu z nutą śledztwa detwektywistycznego.

Shell (@booksbythecup) and I had such a lovely time reading, discussing and enjoying our first, ‘Seasons By The Book’. Thank you again to all who read, discussed and entered the giveaway we hosted. We have one final surprise, featuring our spring read, ‘Lilac Girls’ by Martha Hall Kelly.

With heartfelt thanks to @randomhouse and the lovely author herself, we’d love for you to read and enjoy a special Q&A, we sent to Martha. Shell and I were tickled pink, with her answers - when you get a moment, make yourself a cup of tea, and click on the link in my profile, to read this special Q&A.
Got a surprise package from Ireland today, which immediately put a smile on my face. Turns out, it was from my pal @georgireads. He graciously sent me a book by one of his favorite authors (outside of Atwood and Erdrich obv ). I’ve never read anything by Donal Ryan, so I’m very much looking forward to it! Often these days the world gets me down, but I can always count on #bookstagram to rekindle my spirit. All the love for you, my bookish friends (PS If you don’t already follow Georgi, I would highly suggest it! He’s a gem)
Quando começou a guerra, no fundo, no fundo todos ali sabiam que de alguma maneira estavam mortos…
Meu pequeno país é um livro incrível
Meu pequeno país é um livro incrível
Meu pequeno país é um livro incrível
Meu pequeno país é um livro foda!
Publicado pela @radio.londres esse livro é uma obra prima que se passa durante a guerra em Ruanda, que dizimou mais de 800 mil pessoas em 100 dias, pelos olhos do Gaby de 10 anos. Só nisso você já sente a potência desse livro, leiam a resenha completa porque ta incrivel (link na bio) “Pela primeira vez temos um presidente que não é militar. Eu acho que ele terá menos dor de cabeça que seus antecessores. Os presidentes militares sempre têm enxaqueca. É como se tivessem dois cérebros. Nunca sabem se devem fazer a paz ou a guerra.” Qualquer semelhança com a realidade é uma mera coincidência

Happy first day of summer!
If you haven’t read THE MOTHERS by Brit Bennett, you’re missing out. As I said before, the secrets are what make this story so juicy. Love, loss and the consequences if you would’ve chosen differently. Tell me your thoughts on this one. I give it 4 ★
Enjoy your weekend bookstagram. I hope you have something fun planned!

Okay, you guys... Am I super late to the party with this one and everyone’s done with it already? This is a “bookstagram made me do it” book, for sure.
I know there’s not much to say about Ask Again, Yes that hasn’t already been said but I just want to reaffirm how good it is. It really IS literary fiction at its best. I was so impressed with the writing and I can’t believe I hadn’t heard of Mary Beth Keane before this release.
It follows the lives of two families and the tragedy that connects them over the course of four decades. I love a good family story and this one tackles some tough, real issues. It’s about love, loss, forgiveness AND the strength + hope it takes to forgive.
It took me a bit to get invested in the characters but that’s not unusual for me with literary fiction... Once I did, I couldn’t stop until I knew how it ended. I can’t wait to see what this author does next!
My #prettylittlesummerstack from Alex’s (@pretty_little_bookworm ) challenge, day 1!! I plan to read all of these romances this summer, plus a few others! Now that it finally feels like summer, I am in the mood for alllllll rom com, alllll the time!
☀️
What’s your go to summer reading genre?
