#SmallGreatThings

My June 2024 books read. The best of these: #FugitiveColors by #LisaBarr looks at Nazis and abstract expressionism; #SmallGreatThings by #JodiPicoult reveals racial prejudices in the story of a black nurse accused of killing a white newborn; #TheTroubleIveSeen, a collection of short stories by war correspondent #MarthaGellhorn about the Great Depression.

Well today was a full day! I just happened to come across some books ofcourse 🤗 I’ve really ventured into the fantasy genre this year!

• Small Great Things and Harvesting the Heart by Jodi Picoult • Into The Darkest Corner by Elizabeth Haynes • Claudine by Barbara Palmer • Tigers Curse and Tigers quest by Colleen Houck • God of Vengence by Giles Kristian • The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemison • The Ice Princess by Camilla Lackberg

My TBR pile has just exploded lately! However I really can’t turn down a potentially good read. A few of the authors I’ve read, but not all. #QOTD Have you read any of these? What did you like and why?

@jodipicoult has written something so frustratingly good but also slightly unnerving to see racism in its most aggressive forms and also some passive undertones. Highly recommend everyone to read #smallgreatthings https://www.instagram.com/p/B_N6ozvD9Yf/?igshid=tfme05f4hc4s

I know PLENTY of people who would be uncomfortable reading this book. Hell, I got kind of uncomfortable too and I’m not even done with it. But it’s so very important to have something like this exist in our world right now. Especially with the administration that we have right now and all the people who claim not to be what we know they definitely are. @jodipicoult has always been a great writer and I’ve been getting into her stuff a lot more recently, since I got to see her at my first and second #bookcon. This is the third of her books that I’ve read but the one that I’m liking the most. Kudos to her on this, for recognizing her privilege as a white woman and calling herself out on it. We still have a long way to go (myself included), but this is definitely a step in the right direction. #smallgreatthings #jodipicoult #racism #whiteprivilege #bookrecommendations Seriously though. Read this book.

My Casting for ... Small Great Things

I love reading. When I read a book I usually cast the movie in my mind. I review books here by sharing my cast.

My casting for this one would not work for a film for several reasons, and some dint quite fit the descriptions from the novel. But these are the voices I heard when reading the book

Ruth - Viola Davis Kennedy - Amy Poehler Turk - Dax Sheppard Brittany - Mila Kunis Francis - Woody Harrelson Edison - Marcus Scribner Micah - Will Arnett Odetta - Queen Latifah Howard - Dule Hill Wallace Mercy - Keenan Thompson

What to read on the day of the #Charlottesville Protests

Jodi Picoult’s book Small Great Things is an excellent novel that explores white supremacy and racial prejudice. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

#smallgreatthings is one of the best novels I have read so far this year! I finally took it off my shelf on Sunday, and I am halfway done already! I predict that I will complete it during my morning train ride tomorrow! Everyone needs to grab a copy of this book and crack open the cover, if you have not already done so! This book is a game-changer! #bookstagram #bookworm #readersofinstagram #jodipicoult #jodipicoultbooks (at New Haven, Connecticut)
