Part 1 of my book haul. On my way to owning all the Janet Frame books - and a Brookner (of course) a Barry (haven‘t read him yet) a couple of literary reviews…

Ruthiella Nice! I wonder if I should give Frame‘s fiction a try...🤔 3y
LeahBergen That‘s one of the unread Brookners I own, too. I like to know I have a little stash. 😆 3y
Centique @Ruthiella I‘ve only read two but I remember loving Faces in the Water. 3y
