I love book TT’s! 7 sounds intriguing! Thanks for the tips.
My TT lists the 13 goals of a witch, with my thoughts on them.

I really loved a couple of those! The Bojahlian is not as good as his other books (IMO) but still definitely worth reading.

I read both What the Body Remembers and Comfort Woman; one was great and the other, sadly, didn’t do much for me, but I won’t tell which got which vote; you’ll have to read them and decide for yourself!
Happy reading and have a great TT!

Books seem to be the topic du jour on TT’s this week. Wonderful to learn about new books.

You sound like me. I have a stack of books calling out for me to read them, yet there they sit lonely on the bookshelf. One of these days…

I haven’t read any of these yet, but a couple of them are on my books to read list too.

Comfort Women has caught my eye a few times. I must add it to my To Read List.
LOVED Kitchen God’s Wife. Any Amy Tan, really. Though, I am behind on her newest books.
Water Witches? I read Chris’ other book, Midwife something. LOVED it. May have to read this too.
Dropped Threads sounds neat. I liked Stone Diaries.
I love Bookish 13s.
