    So cute that Raina knows exactly what time it is 😂 I always love the answer to what 5 books you'd bring. The Gray's Anatomy choice was super unexpected but I can see how useful it is along with something to entertain yourself with!! I love that you pick all the functional books while I always think about fun books to (only) entertain myself with no functionality 🤣

    Love the pooch, treat for a video - love it! Ah yes, I really enjoy Mary Oliver also. And I love the art, the pure indulgence, of slow reading.

      Indulgence, yes! That's a great way to look at it!

    Haha Raina knows that filming comes with treats now 😂 I would love to read your book about your adventures solving medical mysteries and rescue missions.
    I’m almost done with Ove as well. And of course a map would be awesome to have on the freaking island! Why didn’t I think of that?! 😂

      @ellenmadebookclub some of those prompts really made me think. This was a good tag, but definitely not a spur of the moment one!

    This is a fun tag! Raina definitely has you well-trained 🤣 I've been wanting to read the Greg Isles series for a while now....maybe one day I'll get to it! Your book idea sounds great 😀

      @amyc1752 oh, yes! I'm well-trained by Raina. The Greg Iles series is pretty good, worth the time commitment.

    I thought the ending of Bell Canto spoiled the whole thing for me, so if you never finish it, it's probably for the best. 😆

    Wonderful video! So glad you’re reading Mary Oliver. I did laugh out loud when you showed Bel Canto! 😂 This just isn’t the right time for that one. Greg Iles is definitely on my radar. Loved your responses, Reney. Hugs for Raina.

      Excuse me for interrupting your chat, but I read 120+ books last year, and The Quiet Game by Iles was one of the best! It beat out Demon Copperhead!! Just throwing in my 2 cents...

    Raina is no dummy! She knows how to get the treats!!
    I'm just starting a medical suspense by Tess Gerritsen - Bloodstream. Her Rizzoli and Isles series is a favorite, but this is the first of her medical ones for me. Have you tried her books? I tend to like the forensic ones like Reichs, Cornwell and Jefferson Bass. Whether or not I will enjoy regular doctors remains to be seen. Enjoy your reads!!
