I am about to start Stephen King's 11/22/63. Looking forward to it. The print is small compared to my Kindle

Yes I bought the actual book, wanted to keep it on my shelf.

I just got the new book from Amazon today by Jeanne Cordova: "When We Were Outlaws", described as "...a love story set between sixties radicalism and the rocky but energetic blast-off of the lesbian movement...queer history that recaptured that reminds us of our roots.

"...the first lesbian conferences, the first women's music festivals, the first gay centers...lesbians in the SLA and FBI witch hunts".

It looks great and I am going to start it now

BUMPING this thread because it's a bit different than the "what are you reading" thread!

A book that I have truly enjoyed is A Name Called Ove by Fredrik Backman.

I was hesitant at first simple because of the way the friend who recommended it described it! I've given copies of this book to countless friends, family members, and even a relative stranger standing next to me at my favorite used book!

Right now I am reading *Fly Girls*

It is about the early days of women in aviation (and aviation in general) and the downright bullying they took to make way in a man’s world of aviation.

It’s a really good book!

I'm making a list of books I have either missed or overlooked as I watch The Great American Read series on PBS.

Their Eyes Were Watching God a 1937 novel by African-American writer Zora Neale Hurston and Another Country by James Baldwin are first on the list!
