Wishful Bookworm

A would-be bookworm happily distracted by work, graduate school & family. Sharing information on the books I enjoy for others in search of a good read.

Just finished The Hopefuls by @jenniferclose - great read! Visit DC for work just enough to feel how close this is to the truth...

Late to the game on discovering @jennycolgan but am glad I did! Loved the Beach Street Bakery series.

Reading The Residence by @katebrower - puts a fascinating spin on all the current election news.

Thanks to @RondaRousey and her unflinching openness, "My Fight/Your Fight" is a very interesting look at life in and out of the cage

[Wishful Bookworm @WishfulBookworm]

Really enjoyed "Life is Short" by @ReallyBillKlein @JenArnoldMD - I have the exact opposite issue for height but still absolutely relate!

[Wishful Bookworm @WishfulBookworm]

Here's hoping "After You" isn't a sequel but the second book in a long series. We're going to need more Ambulance Sam... @jojomoyes

Who knew a sixth wife could be so interesting?!? The Taming of the Queen is a great read. @PhilippaGBooks

[Wishful Bookworm @WishfulBookworm]

Am not royally-obsessed, but I tore through #TheRoyalWe and am desperately hoping for a Freddie-focused sequel. (please @fuggirls??)

[Wishful Bookworm @WishfulBookworm]

The Outlandish Companion seemed entirely unnecessary until I read it - and now it seems essential. Like the whole series! Thanks @Writer_DG

[Wishful Bookworm @WishfulBookworm]

Unfinished Business is a must read - inherently interesting, forward thinking and deeply, deeply honest. Thank you @SlaughterAM!

[Wishful Bookworm @WishfulBookworm]

"who do you love?" I love a book that's so good it made me grateful for a flight delay (more reading time!). Thanks @jenniferweiner!

[Wishful Bookworm @WishfulBookworm]

Carbon credits as interesting reading? It's not as impossible as you think. Chinese Rules via a great cultural interpreter. @TimClissold

[Wishful Bookworm @WishfulBookworm]

Fascinated by the women of China's herstory: Women of the Silk @StMartinsPress), Dreams of Joy @Lisa_See, Pavilion of Women (Pearl Buck).

@RaiseAnAdult - Encouraging sanity in parenting is such a refreshing change of pace. Thank you!

[Wishful Bookworm @WishfulBookworm]

A great commentary on friendship, marriage, and growing up disguised as a summer read. I'm not complaining! The Rumor @elinhilderbrand

[Wishful Bookworm @WishfulBookworm]

Alice Hoffman's characters share their hard-earned wisdom with you - an amazing gift. Loved The Marriage of Opposites. @ahoffmanwriter

[Wishful Bookworm @WishfulBookworm]

Everything you wondered about - and an unexpected bit of empathy for all. Movie Star by Lizzie Pepper - great read! #hilaryliftin

[Wishful Bookworm @WishfulBookworm]

Will be required reading for my daughters: Curvy Girls Club @CurvyGirlsClub3 and Dietland @QueSaraiSera. Important voices to hear.

@SaraGruen At the Water's Edge made me grateful for a flight delay that meant more time to read! Loved the medical history woven in.
