Welcome to Litsy!

Very good. Really kept going, no dull bits!
The stories all wove between each other and still stood alone.

This is very good so far.
I've just finished part 1 and keen to see how part 2 pans out...

A day in the car but not driving... hurrah!
Meant I got to start this.
I read The History of Love some time ago and enjoyed it.

Interconnected stories that all draw together around a desk.

I don‘t reread books so unless it‘s a special gift I donate them when I‘m done. So yes, all of these are TBR. I just ordered some books for my. #cupidgoespostal match and 2 for me. I am all out of space. I MUST be put on a book buying ban. And yes, these are in alphabetical order by author. I‘m one of those people.

Lighter reading material this month due to a move, but audiobooks (all the Louise Penny and Simon Brett novels) made packing, unpacking, painting and cleaning far more bearable! Must get back to more substantial reading in July.

One of the best I've read this year. A cast of characters are connected throughout the decades by possession of an antique desk. Krauss describes her characters in such poignant ways, detailing their thoughts, hopes and struggles, that you immediately connect and invest in each one. Recommended 👍

First day of reading on the deck. Ready for summer! #funinthesun #summerreading #lazydaysofsummer

#milestone Caught it at just the right moment!

Just thought I'd share this for any Tri-State area Littens who might be interested: Nicole Krauss and Matti Friedman are speaking and signing books this Thursday evening, in NYC! I've heard Matti speak before, he's engaging, charming, witty, honest, funny and fascinating! And I'm sure Nicole Krauss is brilliant 💕💕Flyer says FREE for students with valid ID.

Just started this one. I loved A History of Love.

Happy #bookishbirthday to Nicole Krauss! I have to confess, she's one of the contemporary authors I find myself missing out on - perpetually on my TBR. But one of the fun things about doing BBDs is it reminds me where the gaps are!
