Good morning everyone September is World Alzheimer’s Awareness month and I was tagged by the lovely @she_loves_to_read to share a purple stack to raise awareness of this cause.
Other people are also getting involved with the @theromanticbibliotheca pledging to donate $100 dollars plus $1 for every purple book stack or book review for a book with a purple spine or cover.
The books in my stack are:
๐ Convenience Store Woman by Sayaka Murata
๐ Business Or Pleasure by Rachel Lynn Solomon
๐Cursed Crowns by Catherine Doyle & Katherine Webber
๐Bad Actors by Mick Herron
๐The Gifts by Liz Hyder
๐That Bonesetter Woman by Frances Quinn
๐The List by Yomi Adegoke
๐The Valkyrie by Kate Heartfield
๐The Revels by Stacey Thomas
We lost my dad from heart failure 14 years ago and for the few months before he died he was acting very strangely. He kept repeating himself, sometimes telling us the same story twice in a row and forgetting things like what was for supper. In hindsight we now know he was suffering from vascular dementia but at the time we were just confused as to what was happening to him.
I’ve tagged a few people on Instagram who might want to take part but as it’s the last day of September today, no pressure.
What are your weekend plans?


I’m sorry about your Dad Joanna. My father-in-law died from Alzheimer’s and it’s a cruel illness for everyone. I don’t think I have many purple books so won’t do this challenge but well done for finding so many. ๐
