    Congratulations, that's exciting news! I read 'In Praise of Difficult Women' by Karen Karbo. Think the witch song from Into the Woods. Then I picked up 'Lies and Weddings', an unhinged 1% soap opera. It's like Kevin Kwan thought a moment and said: "this book needs more volcanoes". 😅

    Hello again Rumpus, good to have you back :) Congrats on the new job! Talented Mr Ripley series is now definitely on my reading horizon, as is the Ali Smith seasons quartet. 📚Unfortunatley, I've broken my book ban in a big way recently 😅 So many more to read but what a joy it'll be to take it all in. I'm currently reading Yellowface and Dead Poet's Society, with about ten more to read next D:
    I'm hoping to get back on the Booktube wagon now the weather has cooled off a little. Looking forward to your Mid-Year Freak Out video 👀Aww sleepy Ace at the end enjoying the fan ❤

    Congratulations on the new job! The waiting is awful! The Berlin Stories sounds chilling - I didn't realize Cabaret was derived from that book. I'd really like to read Ripley - I've never read anything by Highsmith. I saw the movie but want to read the book(s). I also haven't tried the Ali Smith quartet. Open Throat sounds interesting. Sounds like a good reading month!

    Congrats on the new job! Can you share anything about it? I'm so glad you liked Open Throat -- that was a 5-star read for me. In June, I caught up on my backlog of Antoine Lauraine books, because he's an amazing writer, and I love his quiet stories. I read some other fiction, but my favorite for the month was Hello Beautiful by Ann Napolitano. What a book! 💚

    In June I finished A Whole New World - the Aladdin story from Disney’s Twisted Tales series. I fully enjoyed it. ☺️🧞‍♂️ I am currently reading Anne of Green Gable and it’s adorable so far.
