A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I must be the last person on earth who didn’t read this book (or didn’t see the show) but i finally read it. I enjoyed it too. Fast and easy read.

Wonderful and uplifting story about coming back home to yourself, about community, about support, found family, and real family. And friendship. Loved it.
3.5 sweet little story about belonging and being different. It feels a little like The House in the Cerulean Sea in spirit.
3.5 stars A neat and quick read about a mystery. An interesting twist with the main character being a medical student studying cadavers.
Jimenez writes lovely characters, sweet stories, and always has me feeling like i got a lovely, warm hug.
I picked this up whimsically because it was a Reese pick. It was a great start but, for me, it petered out. And in the end it was meh.
A major undertaking by Karen Russell. I knew practically nothing about the Dust Bowl and I really enjoyed this story set in a fictional town. I liked each of the characters and their unique perspective. I liked how visual and all around immersed the reader became in the story, it was a full five-sense experience to read it. I really enjoyed the touch of magical realism as well, what a unique and lovely way to bring some history into the story. Excellent book.
Sweet story of this family each with their own slight magic. This one is a bit more historical but I love the feeling these stories come with. Light, sweet and tender.

“I believe in kindness and also in mischief. also in singing. especially when singing is not necessarily prescribed.” don’t love this one, but alas. I keep showing up. #sketching #art #urbansketching #watercolorjournal #watercolors #drawing #illustration #artistsoninstagram #sketchbook #creativity #artwork #inspirationalart

“Still, what I want in my life is to be willing to be dazzled, to cast aside the weight of facts and maybe even to float a little above this difficult world.” terrible spacing on the lettering in this one, I know. #sketching #art #urbansketching #watercolorjournal #watercolors #drawing #illustration #artistsoninstagram #sketchbook #creativity #artwork #inspirationalart
