Weekly Book Wrap-Up #256 – Hello Warm June


With the Weekly Book Wrap-Up, I give you a bit of an insight into all the new books that have arrived at my place. No matter if I won a giveaway, got approved for a reviewer´s copy, an ARC, or just bought one myself. Everything that I add to my shelves, in what way ever and read during the past week or am still reading, I will write about it. And maybe I tell you a bit about the upcoming things on Inkvotary, that is if I don´t forget it and have something to share with you *smile*

I am linking up with Caffeinated Reviewer and Reading Reality and hope you´ll have fun reading it and maybe get the one or the other book inspiration.



Stacking The Shelves #256

I sound like a broken record. No new books.





Sunday Post #213

The past week was filled with raw emotions. The good news, my stepmom is all cleared and can drive her car again. What a relief. She isn´t happy with the situation but at least she can again decide how things should work. My dad´s still at the clinic. His dementia has taken again a turn for the worse and we know now that they give him each evening a sleeping pill and during the day tranquilizers. Something my dad never wanted. I had a long phone call with my stepmom, and we agreed to do a few things together. It feels strange that I have to think about my dad´s future funeral and where he will be laid to rest while he is still alive. But it was good for me to hear what my stepmom thinks about it.

The prizes for fruits and veggies, among others, have gone up again. Inflation has gone down. Ok. Can you tell me where? Because I don´t see it.

On the blogger front, I am still reading Gallant and I am absolutely thrilled. I am halfway through and hope I can finish it today or tomorrow. I had planned to email some publishers for some requested and approved books which haven´t arrived but the days go by in a blink. I cleaned my bathroom Saturday and darkened the roof window there with silver foil. Let´s see if it works.

The garden is in full bloom, and I enjoy it every day while sitting on the balcony or looking out the bedroom window. Although I haven´t worked in the garden for the past week. It is too hot during the day and in the evening, I am busy coming to terms with what´s happened during the day.



And how was your week?



Happy reading

Weekly Book Wrap-Up #255 – Hard Days


With the Weekly Book Wrap-Up, I give you a bit of an insight into all the new books that have arrived at my place. No matter if I won a giveaway, got approved for a reviewer´s copy, an ARC, or just bought one myself. Everything that I add to my shelves, in what way ever and read during the past week or am still reading, I will write about it.

Stacking The Shelves #255

I´m starting to sound like a broken record. No new books.





Sunday Post #212

The past week has been incredibly hard. I tried to help my stepmom as best as I could, but it was never enough. At least not in her opinion. And I totally understand it. She is a sobbing mess, no matter what day or time I call her or she calls me. And I can´t blame her.

Tuesday and Wednesday I was finally able to write some new blog content and to start a new book. Gallant by V.E. Schwab. The garden looks like a wild area with all the flowers and plants blooming and growing. The lilac is covered with dead blossoms, but I don´t find the energy to cut them out.

I can´t even enjoy the peonies which are in full bloom. The rest of the week I tried to get at least some sort of daily routine in my daily routine. Thursday we were finally allowed to visit my dad. It was a shock. I don´t remember what I did Friday. And Saturday, I was busy mowing the lawn at midday in bright sunshine. Yes, stupid, I know. It took me three hours to cut most of the wild grass with my garden scissor and the rest with the mower a neighbor lent me. After that, I was completely exhausted and had to rest for a bit before I went to the supermarket for some food. After all, it is the long Pentecost weekend. The sun is shining bright and warm all day and it will stay that way for the next week. At least that´s what the weather forecast keeps telling me. I had planned to bake a cake Saturday evening but ended up packing all the ingredients away again. No energy.

Today, Sunday, the same picture. My stepmom woke me up with her call around nine. After that phone call, I couldn´t go back to sleep and spent the day writing, calling the clinic, and trying to get the new information to my stepmom. No chance. I fear we will see another drama tomorrow when she wants to visit him again. Ah well …



And how was your week?



Happy reading

Hallo Sommer by Mary Kay Andrews


It was the combination of political drama, some thriller elements, and three generations of a family which need to come to terms with their past and life that made me want to read this novel. And when you consider that some stories are the perfect book for a day at the beach, swimming pool, or your own deck, then yes, this one is a good choice. Despite the dark moments in this story, most of the book is wonderful entertainment. At least it was for me.


Hallo Sommer*
by Mary Kay Andrews
Translation Andrea Fischer
Original Title Hello, Summer**
Publisher Fischer TB on March 29, 2023
Genre Novel
Pages 617
Format Paperback
Source Fischer TB
Goodreads
✶✶✶✶


Lucky to come home.
At first, investigative journalist Conley Hawkins isn't thrilled when she ends up in her small hometown in Florida. But the family newspaper is not doing well. Conley does everything to save her together with her sister. In her grandmother's beach house, Conley learns that regional journalism can also produce sensations. And that new love can arise from old injuries.
Story
Conley is about to get a new job when she hears that at home things aren´t working the way they are supposed to. She leaves Atlanta to help her family in Florida, only to find out that all the old problems and conflicts are still brewing within the three women. And when one night an accident with a burning car starts to shatter her world, she does her job. She starts to investigate and turn things around.

Style
An enjoyable read with the theme of dementia as a backstory. The author dealt with it very sensitively and empathetically. And it quickly becomes clear to those somewhat familiar with the disease that many things in the novel and thus in the USA are very different than in this country (Germany). Nevertheless, there are wonderful scenes and dialogues that captivate the reader, inspire them, make them laugh or smile, and, together with the setting, simply create a holiday feeling. Well, the plot itself isn't new and at some points in the book I felt like I'd read it all before, but still, the author knows how to engage her readers and with the character of Grandmother Lorraine, she has landed an absolute hit. Mary Kay Andrews shows the conflict and tension with an easy-to-read writing style and the use of absolutely appropriate words. And works her way through to an unusually happy ending. At least that's how I felt.

Characters
This novel is also about a family that has gone through its good and bad times. Where the blessings of the family don't always hang straight, and the past doesn't make it easier for daughters Conley and Grayson to navigate through life with themselves and the family business.

What is passion and freedom for Conley, the younger of the Hawkins sisters, is obligation, burden, and like a prison for her older sister Grayson. This inevitably leads to conflicts and arguments in the course of the action.


Conclusion
The happy ending is predictable, and the issue of dementia leaves a distinct mark on the story. But the many wonderful dialogues and scenes with Grandmother Lorraine often made me laugh and were just lovely to read. This took the heaviness out of the dark background theme and presented me with a grandmother that I would have liked to have had too. Maybe not an absolute top novel, but perfect for a few entertaining hours on the beach, lake, or on the patio at home.



Happy reading







*Fischer TB kindly provided me this book in exchange for an honest and unbiased review. Thank you. Therefore, the cover of the German edition is shown first in this review.


Deutsche Rezension

Stil
Ein angenehm zu lesender Roman, der das Thema Demenz als Hintergrundgeschichte hat. Die Autorin ging damit sehr feinfühlig und einfühlsam um. Und es wird denjenigen, die mit der Krankheit etwas vertraut sind aber auch schnell klar, dass viele Dinge im Roman und somit in den USA ganz anders sind als hierzulande. Trotzdem gibt es wunderschöne Szenen und Dialoge, die den Leser fesseln, begeistern, zum Lachen oder Schmunzeln bringen und mit dem Setting zusammen einfach nur Urlaubsfeeling erzeugen. Gut, der Plot an sich ist jetzt nicht neu und an einigen Stellen im Buch hatte ich das Gefühl, das alles schon mal gelesen zu haben, aber dennoch, die Autorin  versteht es, ihre Leser mitzunehmen und mit der Figur der Großmutter Lorraine hat sie einen absoluten Volltreffer gelandet. Mary Kay Andrews zeigt die Konflikte und die Anspannung mit einem einfach zu lesenden Schreibstil und der Verwendung von absolut passenden Worten. Und arbeitet sich damit zu einem ungewöhnlichen Happy End durch. Zumindest habe ich es so empfunden.

Charaktere
Auch in diesem Roman geht es um eine Familie, die ihre guten und schlechten Zeiten durchlaufen hat. Wo der Familiensegen nicht immer gerade hängt und die Vergangenheit es den Töchtern Conley und Grayson nicht einfacher macht, mit sich selbst und dem Familienunternehmen durchs Leben zu navigieren.

Was für Conley, die Jüngere der Hawkins Schwestern, Leidenschaft und Freiheit bedeutet, ist für ihre ältere Schwester Grayson Verpflichtung, Last und wie ein Gefängnis. Das führt im Handlungsverlauf zwangsläufig zu Konflikten und Auseinandersetzungen.


Resultat
Das Happy End ist vorhersehbar, und das Thema Demenz hinterlässt eine deutliche Spur in der Geschichte. Aber die vielen herrlichen Dialoge und Szenen mit Großmutter Lorraine haben mich oft zum Lachen gebracht und waren einfach nur schön zu lesen. Das hat dem dunklen Hintergrundthema die Schwere genommen und mir eine Großmutter präsentiert, die ich auch gerne gehabt hätte. Vielleicht kein absoluter Top-Roman, aber für ein paar unterhaltsame Stunden am Strand, See, oder der heimischen Terrasse perfekt geeignet.











**The book was originally published by St. Martin´s Press on May 5, 2020.

Stacking The Shelves #254

No new book. Sorry.





Sunday Post #211

On May 15th my dad had to be admitted to a special clinic by an emergency doctor because the care home he was supposed to stay for the next four weeks has screwed up terribly. Since then, my father is totally alone, and no visitors are allowed. And his doctor told my stepmom that my father won't be coming home. I am so furious! It is HELL!

I haven´t been in the garden, haven´t read my current read Hello Summer and read instead every piece of information online I can get to make things easier for me and my stepmom. My head isn´t willing to read a book or to think about something else but my dad and where he is now. Alone. My stepmom needs time to adjust and cope with everything that´s happening but unfortunately, my dad hasn´t the time to wait for that.

The weather is unusually warm for this time of year, and we have a mix of sun and clouds. For me usually, the perfect weather to go for a power walk. Not these days. My only walk is the walk to the supermarket. Since the drama started to unfold Monday, I noticed that I mostly buy veggies, salat, and some fruits. My instinct tells me, that I need to change my nutrition plan again and eat as clean as possible to hopefully avoid a diagnosis he got in his early seventies. But sometimes I am still buying a bit of chocolate and enjoy it to satisfy my sweet tooth *sigh*

Last night, Saturday, I enjoyed some Aperol. Not the best of choices, yes, but well… At least I was able to sleep for a couple of hours. Which I haven´t done in the past week. Today, I slept very long, wrote, and discovered that the word “freedom” has become a totally new definition for me. I can walk around as I please. My dad can´t and won´t for the rest of his life. How short or long it might be …



And how was your week?



Happy reading

Sunday Post #210

Last Monday, I went to the library to bring back some books, took care of my bank account, and brought my social voting papers to the post office. After that, I went to the supermarket for some items, and as usual, didn´t get everything I had on my list. Grrr. After that, I tried to read (not very successful) and ended up cleaning my kitchen late at night *sigh*

Tuesday started with another walk to the supermarket. This time I was able to get almost everything I had on my list. In the late afternoon, I started digging out the wild briers I had discovered and replanted them in a new spot. Now, I don´t have to worry that they get damaged when others mow the lawn.

On Wednesday I mowed the rest of the lawn after I was done with my daily routine and got the bio bags filled and ready for Thursday. Thursday was a day to relax. I can´t even remember what I did Friday if I don´t look at my timer. What does that say about me? Not sure. Saturday was another quiet day. I slept long and went for some last weekend shopping at the supermarket in the late afternoon.

And today, Sunday, I received the information, that my stepmom is bringing my dad into a special care home for people with dementia. He will stay there for at least the next four weeks while she waits for her treatment place at a health resort. None of us knows how things will unfold. But I hope that she will recover from the illness she´s developed over the last weekend. Now, it is one step at a time. And to all Mother´s out there: Happy Mother´s Day!



And how was your week?

Sunday Post #209

During the past two weeks, it was kind of quiet around here. My blog is in some sort of sleep, and I can´t read as much as I would like to.


      

I haven´t done much in the garden, except for taking some pictures of the flowers there. The only thing that makes me smile these days.


      

The weather is as if we´re still in April. Rain, blue skies, sun, wind, clouds, and the next moment hot and damp. Ah well…

Waiting On Wednesday #205 – A Venom Dark And Sweet by Judy I. Lin


is a weekly event that was originally hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. This meme is a place that spotlights upcoming releases that we´re eagerly anticipating with pure joy. There are a lot of new books coming out each year and some of them catch my attention and will get a spotlight in my Waiting on Wednesday post. While some of them will finally end up here at my place, others won´t. I am joining Tressa at Wishful Endings and her meme Can´t-Wait Wednesday.

Okay, I didn´t give the first volume of this dilogy a good rating. But nonetheless, I am eager to discover how things will unfold and finally end. The author left many questions unanswered and with the sudden cliffhanger at the end of the first book, I want to find out if the author is willing to answer them now. So, yes, this week my Waiting on Wednesday pick is the second and final part of The Book of Tea dilogy.




A Venom Dark And Sweet-Was Uns Zusammenhält
Author Judy I. Lin
The Book Of Tea #2
Publishing Date August 30, 2023
Publisher Fischer Sauerländer
Format Hardcover
Goodreads




A great evil has come to the kingdom of Dàxi. The Banished Prince has returned to seize power, his rise to the dragon throne aided by the mass poisonings that have kept the people bound in fear and distrust. Ning, a young but powerful shénnóng-shi - a wielder of magic using the ancient and delicate art of tea-making - has escorted Princess Zhen into exile. Joining them is the princess' loyal bodyguard, Ruyi, and Ning's newly healed sister, Shu. Together the four young women travel throughout the kingdom in search of allies to help oust the invaders and take back Zhen's rightful throne. But the golden serpent still haunts Ning's nightmares with visions of war and bloodshed. An evil far more ancient than the petty conflicts of men has awoken, and all the magic in the land may not be enough to stop it from consuming the world...

No new book.





Sunday Post #208

Last Sunday afternoon I had become a sore throat and took a Covid rapid test. The test was negative, but my head felt as if the sniffles were just around the corner. The new week started with a power outage Monday morning. Fifteen minutes without any electricity. It was eerily quiet.

Tuesday morning, I went again to the supermarket to get some groceries. I was able to buy some of the veggies and fruits I had wanted, but the rest of my list was still not available *sigh* I didn´t feel good but I didn´t feel sick either. A weird status… Am I now getting the flu or the sniffles or am I not? No clue.

On Wednesday I wrote and published a Waiting On Wednesday post. Kind of last minute. And then things went literally South. I started mowing the lawn in the back garden Thursday afternoon. And while doing that I discovered that right in the middle of the “lawn” a wood anemone was growing and two wild briers were. And with all the soaring prices, I thought I mark them with wooden sticks to make the replanting easier. I ripped out a huge pile of wild grass from the new flower bed and replanted one of the wild briers. And while I was busy digging a hole and getting the wild brier out of her old spot, the skies turned from sunny to grey and then it started to rain. I got the rose replanted within no time and went upstairs again.

My Friday was no fun day. I cared for my household, bought some fresh fruits and veggies, and later went down to finish the mowing. Back upstairs I took another Covid test because my chest felt the same as it did two years ago when I had the infection for the first time. The test was again, negative. But the feeling remains. I should have listened to my body. But after another restless night, I went for some last weekend shopping at the supermarket and after that again down in the garden to mow the rest of the grass. And that was probably no good idea. Now, I know better. Since Saturday night my voice is gone, my nose is running, and I feel like somebody has kicked me in my stomach. Anyway.

On the blogger front, I can say, I know that today is world book day. But I haven´t read a single page in the past week. I am reading the news on my tablet, yes, but did I read the book I am supposed to read? No. I have a bad feeling because of that and feel guilty about it. But somehow do not have the energy to change something. At least not at the moment.



And how was your week?

Waiting On Wednesday #204 – Identity by Nora Roberts


is a weekly event that was originally hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine. This meme is a place that spotlights upcoming releases that we´re eagerly anticipating with pure joy. There are a lot of new books coming out each year and some of them catch my attention and will get a spotlight in my Waiting on Wednesday post. While some of them will finally end up here at my place, others won´t. I am joining Tressa at Wishful Endings and her meme Can´t-Wait Wednesday.

I´ve seen way better-designed covers as a Nora Roberts book, but this sounds intriguing, so it is my pick for this Waiting On Wednesday post. I guess, I don´t need to tell you, that I am a huge NR fan. Her novels usually excite me every time I get the chance to read one. And I hope that this one will give me some reading pleasure as well.




Identity
Author Nora Roberts
Publishing Date May 23, 2023
Publisher St. Martin´s Press
Format Hardcover
Goodreads




Former Army brat Morgan Albright has finally planted roots in a friendly neighborhood near Baltimore. Her friend and roommate Nina helps her make the mortgage payments, as does Morgan's job as a bartender. But after she and Nina host their first dinner party - attended by Luke, the flirtatious IT guy who'd been chatting her up at the bar - her carefully built world is shattered. The back door glass is broken, cash and jewelry are missing, her car is gone, and Nina lies dead on the floor. Soon, a horrific truth emerges: It was Morgan who let the monster in. "Luke" is actually a cold-hearted con artist named Gavin who targets a particular type of woman, steals her assets and identity, and then commits his ultimate goal: murder. What the FBI tells Morgan is beyond chilling. Nina wasn't his type. Morgan is. Nina was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. And Morgan's nightmare is just beginning. Soon she has no choice but to flee to her mother's home in Vermont. While she struggles to build something new, she meets another man, Miles Jameson. He isn't flashy or flirtatious, and his family business has deep roots in town. But Gavin is still out there hunting new victims, and he hasn't forgotten the one who got away.


And what are you waiting for? Let me know your thoughts about this one or leave me the link to your WoW and I check it out.

I am an avid reader, book blogger, and painter who loves to talk and write about books. A day without one in my hands is a wasted one. Skilled florist with a degree in writing - oh yes, that works! I like many genres, but horror is nothing for me. Here on Inkvotary I will show my love for books, things that move me and what´s going on off the blog - called life. The personal as well as life in general.
