This Week: November 12th

We are officially into holiday season this week! With Veterans Day yesterday, and Diwali later this week, along with Thanksgiving next week, it feels like there is so much to celebrate. Are you ready for the holidays yet? I’ve got my books lined up for all my time away for work, but there’s still so much to do!

Here’s the books I’m looking forward to discussing with you this week. Grab your copies of these books by clicking the images below:

Kinfolk

by Sean Dietrich

Posting on Monday, November 13th

Prompt: Releasing this week!

This is a Read With Lindsey Most Anticipated Release of 2023! I reviewed an advanced copy a few months ago and post the full review Monday. This novel is a beautiful Southern Gothic novel – you’re going to love it!


Author Event Recap: Gen. David Petraeus

Discussing Conflict: The evolution of warfare from 1945 to Ukraine

Posting on Wednesday, November 15th

I’ll be back at the Atlanta History Center this week to hear General Petraeus speak about his new book. While not military myself, I have been military-adjacent most of my life – granddaughter, niece, girlfriend, fiancée, ex-wife. I’m looking forward to hearing him share his perspective on modern warfare and how it has changed since WWII.


Born Confused

by Tanuja Desai Hidier

Posting on Thursday, November 16th

Prompt: Diwali

When I was in search of a book to read for Diwali this year, this specific book popped up in multiple lists of suggestions. It’s a YA take on what it means to be Indian-American and dealing with both feeling too Indian in some circles, and too American in others. This is a beautiful coming of age story!


Nights in Rodanthe

by Nicholas Sparks

Posting on Friday, November 17th

Prompt: Modern Classic

I’ve wanted to read this one for quite a while and I’m happy I found a place for it this month before we head off to North Carolina’s Outer Banks for the Thanksgiving holiday. Set in Rodanthe in the mid-OBX islands, this is a haunting love story – I can tell why the movie was such a hit (not that I’ve read it yet!!).


The Getaway List

by Emma Lord

Posting on Saturday, November 18th

Prompt: Sponsored Read

This was my second YA novel for the week! I love Emma Lord and jumped at the chance to review her newest book coming soon. This one is perfect for those high school grads taking a leap year or just not quite sure what the future holds for them!
