I got the Nickel Boys at e-book. It had 213 pages. Not sure if you read it already or maybe this month or last.
Thanks! I have read that one - really good! Hope you liked! Wonder if I can google by number of pgs in book?! 😂
Kristine wrote: "Thanks! I have read that one - really good! Hope you liked! Wonder if I can google by number of pgs in book?! 😂"Yes, think I did that. Or try books with 13 in title. Sorry, forgot how I found it so fast, but was glad, b/c it is a hard one.
Of topic, I’m doing A-Z Chalkenge, and was almost positive there was a page on the site and we all had our books listed. I only have one more to read and will have finished it. Do you know the link? I was looking a while last night? Maybe, format changed.

Thirteen Moons and Thirteen Reasons Why work for number in title.
I need to pick out my X Book, so let you know if I find any others or page #.
Does this work? I also did it but still missing Z! Have you read one for Z yet? 💕📚🤷🏼♀�/topic/show/...

Kristine, thanks for the link, something must have been down the other night (not the usual reason, I am incompetent with my computer) and I could not find it.
Yes, just read Z: A Novel of Zelda Fitzgerald. Wrote a short review if you want to see, but basically I really liked it. Set in 20’s, some fun and interesting back story, with Paris and Gertrude Stein. The Roaring 20’s and such. Fictionalized take on Zelda F, and how she does suffer from mental illness, but perhaps not to the degree thought. To be cured she is supposed to give up all her ambitions, including painting and writing and just cater to F.Scott. So, a feminist take on what may have happened. If that interests you, yes would recommend. Not sure if you’re doing Pop Sugar, but this works for novel written about the 20’s, too. Love challenges, actually makes me finish a lot of books and fun way to do it.
