It’s been a wonderfully busy Covid month of reading, watching and listening once again!
Starting out the month with reading The Vanishing Half by Brit Bennett, loved it and have already recommended it to many readers. It’s a great choice for a book club.
Next novel was The Wicked Sister by Michigan author Karen Dionne. Her attention to detail of the great Upper Michigan landscape and her craftsmanship in creating well-conceived characters in a psychological thriller is marvelous!
I also indulged in a Young Adult novel titled Ghost Boy by Jewel Parker Rhodes. An interesting read that deals with racism and the Black Lives Matter movement. Also, a great selection for a English class at the High school or Middle school level.
As far as my non-fiction selections, I enjoyed reading Front Row at the Trump Show. I read most of it, lost interest, and then decided to flip through the last few pages. I love Jonathon Karl, an ABC White House correspondent. His first- hand knowledge of being in the press briefings with the President and the Press Secretary lend great insight into a malfunctioning, chaotic White House. I did not review this book, although I did like what I read. Just to many facts for me- I got lost in the weeds.
Streaming was a hit again in the DAK Living household. I watched The Crown, season 3, while on the bike trainer, and each night was filled with these wonderful stories…
Goliath was exceptional with wonderful acting by Billy Bob Thornton. Bosch is a great LAPD detective series with lots of drama.
I really enjoy Diana Krall and her newest album is sooo good!
Canadian artist, Alanis Morissette is back! She released this gem in July and it is now available at your public library! I have already bought my own copy from Amazon.
All media is available at your Public Library!
