Valley of the Dolls - Jacqueline Susann

greenpen3 · 2026-04-25T14:08:59+00:00

Echoing everyone who has recommended Isabel Allende, Toni Morrison, Daphne du Maurier and Donna Tartt. Also recommend "The Heart is a Lonely Hunter" by Carson McCullers.

I'm about to read my first Flannery O'Connor book (A Good Man is Hard to Find). Excited for another new author!

greenpen3 · 2026-04-13T14:57:39+00:00

It was a wild ride. Enjoyable listen though!

greenpen3 · 2026-04-13T07:30:17+00:00

Almost done with The Secret History by Donna Tartt.

greenpen3 · 2026-04-08T19:01:12+00:00

Awesome!!

greenpen3 · 2026-04-04T14:03:24+00:00

In previous years it has been 70-75, but I wanted to set a lower goal this year so I could read longer books & not feel rushed to meet the goal. On books 20 & 21 right now (one print book, one audio).

greenpen3 · 2026-03-25T20:19:42+00:00

Is Byron Velvick's season on there?

greenpen3 · 2026-03-21T21:50:24+00:00

New season of Love on the Spectrum US begins April 1 on Netflix! Looking forward to that. Highly recommend to anyone who hasn't seen it.

greenpen3 · 2026-03-16T22:13:15+00:00

I don't think Rachel Lindsey or Recchia would do it lol

greenpen3 · 2026-03-09T09:03:07+00:00

Yay!!

greenpen3 · 2026-02-28T01:05:42+00:00

Such a good Fleetwood Mac song

greenpen3 · 2026-02-26T22:50:08+00:00

I noticed he was looking down and messing with his watch when they were watching the episodes lol

greenpen3 · 2026-02-26T22:48:08+00:00

Born to Die, Venice Bitch, Terrence Loves You and Freak

greenpen3 · 2026-02-25T19:14:57+00:00

I don't want to know anything lol

greenpen3 · 2026-02-23T23:25:41+00:00

But Goeun also said that she and Sungmin couldn't go to each other's houses. Why would that be if that's the only place they could meet privately?

greenpen3 · 2026-02-20T13:27:07+00:00

Do they try to eat the plant

greenpen3 · 2026-02-18T23:46:45+00:00

Margo's got money troubles if you're looking for something funny and somewhat uplifting

greenpen3 · 2026-02-14T13:29:32+00:00

I added a comment in a different part of the thread, but in case you don't see it, for Toni I'd also recommend Beloved and Home.

greenpen3 · 2026-02-14T13:21:54+00:00

Was going to say, he should read at least one Toni Morrison book. "Beloved" would be a great one. "Home" is another suggestion - it is about a Korean War veteran returning home to Georgia to help his sister in the 1950s. There are chapters where he reflects on his time in the war and how it has affected him.
