Hi readers! It has been a while since we’ve had a monthly TBR list, but I’m almost done working through my ARC book list and if I can finish these books this month, I can start requesting again!! The first two are book club reads so that are must reads for me. The last three are the advanced reader books I still need to read. 🙂
Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer
One of my book club reads for the month. I haven’t read very much nonfiction this year so I’m looking forward to this one. In fact, I started listening to the audiobook last night and the author’s narration is superb so far!
Drawing Down the Moon by Margot Adler
Second book club read of the month! My library hold on this also came through overnight so yay for witchy things. This book is older and I’m hoping it has held up well through the years, but expecting to need to show some leniency there.
We Spread by Iain Reid
This is my second book by Reid, the first being “I’m Thinking of Ending Things” which I quite enjoyed. The book is about an elderly painter who slowly starts losing grip on time and becomes suspicious of long-term care residence where she’s staying. Not sure what to expect, but excited to find out!
I Want to Die but I Want to Eat Tteokbokki by Baek Sehee
Another ARC that has been sitting on my to read list for a while now, I really only requested this one for that amazing title. The book is a therapy memoir which from my understanding is also part self-help book. I don’t have a great track record with that genre, but I’m ready to give it another shot because I do love it when it’s done well.
We Are All So Good at Smiling by Amber McBride
The last of my outstanding ARC books, if I can finish this one and the above two this month, I can go back to requesting! This young adult novel-in-verse that deals with depression and trauma sounds right up my alley. I have big expectations for this one!
