2024 Popsugar Reading Challenge - Update #7

 

Happy Sunday everyone and welcome to my seventh 2024 Popsugar Reading Challenge update with mini reviews!   In July, I completed 3 books for a total of 38 so far this year out of 50 books.  12 to go!  Keep reading to see my thoughts on the books I read in July:

❋ ❋ ❋ ❋ 

 In the Heat of the Night (Virgil Tibbs #1) by John Ball is a very well done mystery.  Of all of the characters in the novel, Virgil Tibbs is easily the most compelling by far.  That said, this is a case where I'd argue that the movie adaptation is better.  You can't go wrong with Sidney Poitier. This book is well done, but I think I prefer the movie adaptation with Sidney Poitier.

My review is also on Goodreads.

Silver in the Wood (The Greehollow Duology #1) by Emily Tesh is a new to me favorite.  I absolutely loved this and I wish it were longer to stay with the characters for a little longer.  I need to read the second half of this duology asap!

My review is also on Goodreads.

❋ ❋ ❋ ❋ ❋

Ubik by Philip K. Dick is so weird and unsettling - in the best of ways.  I would love more and I wouldn't mind seeing this adapted to the screen as well.  I need to read more from the author.

My review is also on Goodreads.
