2024 Popsugar Reading Challenge - Update #8

  

Happy Sunday everyone and welcome to my eighth 2024 Popsugar Reading Challenge update with mini reviews!   In August, I completed 2 book for a total of 40 so far this year out of 50 books.  Only 10 left!  Keep reading to see my thoughts on the books I read in August:

❋ ❋ ❋ ❋

Everyone on This Train is a Suspect (Ernest Cunningham #2) by Benjamin Stevenson is  a pretty awesome mystery thriller.  I really like the author's style and the audiobook production also helps make this standout from the crowd as well.  That said, somehow I wasn't quite as hooked by this sequel as I was by the first installment - it's a tall order.  I am really looking forward to the upcoming book three.

My review is also on Goodreads.

❋ ❋ ❋ ❋

Just Kids by Patti Smith is a memoir of a musician and artist I'm not all familiar with outside of her biggest songs.  I wouldn't have read this if if weren't for the 2024 Popsugar Reading Challenge.  I can honestly say I now know a lot more about Patti Smith (and Robert Maplethorpe).  She's certainly led an interesting life.  I might have to check out more of her work in the future.

My review is also on Goodreads.
