Congrats to the winner! Thanks to this challenge, I started listening to audiobooks again. My favorite read in August was probably The Night Circus. I remember so little about The Red and the Black, except that I really enjoyed it! Last year I read Hawthorne's Marble Faun, the only thing I've read by him, and LOVED it. The story wasn't fantastic or anything. I just got so absorbed in his writing. If you love reading about art and architecture, I highly recommend it. I'll probably trade in my Tale of Genji copy at Half Price Books. 😭

I love that Summer Book Bingo got you back into audiobooks ❤️ I have the Marble Faun, I think! I might have to give that a try! Maybe Genji will work better for you than me … it’s worth a try 😜

Summer book bingo was so fun! Thanks again for hosting! I had 4 days left of the month and one square left (500 pages) to get a blackout. I chose Great Expectations by Dickens not expecting to finish in time but I loved it and couldn’t put it down! The only other Dickens I’ve read was Oliver Twist and it was just okay for me so I was surprised 🙂 I had several other five stars this month from multiple genres including The Heir and the Spare by Kate Stradling, Authentically Izzy by Pepper Basham, and Things We Didn’t Say by Amy Lynn Green. I hope September goes well for you!

Nice Wrap Up! 📚 I really liked The Kamogawa Food Detectives. It was a sweet story and a nice way to wrap up my summer reading. ☀️ I haven’t read Attack on Titan, but I’ve enjoyed the anime. However, I think I’d enjoy the manga. I had an enjoyable time participating in Summer Book Bingo. I was two prompts away from black out. 👏🏻 Thanks for hosting such a fun summer reading event, Tiffany. Congrats to Lindsey @bytes of memory for winning the giveaway. 🎉

I’m so glad you liked Kamogawa Food Detectives too! I think if you enjoyed the Attack on Titan anime, you’d like the manga! I think I’ve heard the show is pretty faithful. I haven’t seen it yet. You did great on your bingo board! It was so fun to see what you were reading this summer!

Yay for the winner of book bingo! Yay for finishing tale of Genji! I finished it too! I enjoyed Genji more than you did, but I listened to the audible version and loved that translation more. It did get repetitive, but I enjoyed the poetry. I think listening to the poetry helps for me.

Was it the Dennis Washburn translation audiobook? I bounced between that and the physical book. The audiobook narrator was good, but he couldn’t save it for me, unfortunately 😂 I’m glad you liked it more than I did!
