The Bookish Books Reading Challenge: August Book Ideas and Link-Up for Reviews
Good Bad Girl by Alice Feeney—Books aren't a huge theme in this mystery/thriller, but one of the main characters is a librarian in a women's prison. She talks about the power of reading in her life and in the lives of the inmates.
I also read this one that seemed like it would be bookish but really wasn't:
The Secret Library by Kekla Magoon—Another middle-grade novel, this one is about a girl who finds a mysterious map left for her by her beloved grandfather, who has just died. It leads her to a library full of objects that look like books, but are actually stored secrets. So, the title refers to a library full of secrets instead of a book library that no one knows about. Disappointing!
Library Girl and The Secret Library were pretty meh reads for me, but I enjoyed the others.
What bookish books am I planning to read in August? This one looks really cute, although I might save it for later in the year:
