  I know I'm a little late to the sign up party, but I just signed up for the Dewey's 24 hour Readathon on October 22!  I'm not as dedicated as others and stay up all night reading or anything (kudos to you that do! You are a mazing!) but my goal is to make extra time for reading and promote to other why reading is awesome!! Here's my TBR for the readathon:   I want to finish it before the movie comes out on the 28th--hubby wants to see it :)    I participate in a Book Bingo with some of my coworkers. One of the categories for this round is to read a book from the Goodreads list " Social Justice: Books on Racism, Sexism, and Class " and I picked this one! Anyone else participating in the readathon? What's on your TBR?

About The Girl Who Fought Napoleon Paperback: 442 pages Publisher: Lake Union Publishing (September 20, 2016) In a sweeping story straight out of Russian history, Tsar Alexander I and a courageous girl named Nadezhda Durova join forces against Napoleon. It’s 1803, and an adolescent Nadya is determined not to follow in her overbearing Ukrainian mother’s footsteps. She’s a horsewoman, not a housewife. When Tsar Paul is assassinated in St. Petersburg and a reluctant and naive Alexander is crowned emperor, Nadya runs away from home and joins the Russian cavalry in the war against Napoleon. Disguised as a boy and riding her spirited stallion, Alcides, Nadya rises in the ranks, even as her father begs the tsar to find his daughter and send her home. Both Nadya and Alexander defy expectations—she as a heroic fighter and he as a spiritual seeker—while the battles of Austerlitz, Friedland, Borodino, and Smolensk rage on. In a captivating tale that brings Durova’s memoirs

Title: When We Meet Again Author: Kristin Harmel 365 pages, published June 7, 2016 Note: I received this book from NetGalley to facilitate my review. I received no other compensation, and all opinions are my own. From Goodreads: Emily Emerson is used to being alone; her dad ran out on the family when she was a just a kid, her mom died when she was seventeen, and her beloved grandmother has just passed away as well. But when she’s laid off from her reporting job, she finds herself completely at sea…until the day she receives a beautiful, haunting painting of a young woman standing at the edge of a sugarcane field under a violet sky. That woman is recognizable as her grandmother—and the painting arrived with no identification other than a handwritten note saying, “He always loved her.” Emily is hungry for roots and family, so she begins to dig. And as she does, she uncovers a fascinating era in American history. Her trail leads her to the POW internment camps of Florida, where G
