pickLoved this. It‘s very unagitated. But beautiful. The only thing I would have liked is to have a little bit more backstory from the photographer.
I‘m really enjoying my current audiobook! The story of three old men who live in the north canadian forests to have their freedom in their last days who get unexpected company from two very different woman. It‘s very intriguing!
pickNew episode: And the Birds Rained Down by Jocelyne Saucier (translated by Rhonda Mullin) to celebrate #WITMonth
pick"And the Birds Rained Down" by Jocelyne Saucier, translated from the French by Rhonda Mullins, is a short novel about a photographer who encounters a group of aging recluses as she searches for survivors of the "Great Fires" in northern Ontario in the early 20th century. It is told in a unique style and focuses on single characters as the story develops, with surprises throughout. Art, love, life.
pickAmazing! A friend gave this to me and it is such a beautiful story :) There is so much quiet power in these friendships it made me think growing older might not be as scary... :) The English and Frech title say something about falling birds in case you are trying to find this book. :)
Staying with my folks and trying to choose a book off their shelf. They have lots of Canada Reads selections. What do you think Canadian Littens, is there a must-read in the stack?

All of the weatherish titles on my #kobo! To my embarrassment, all are #TBR. 🙈
pickFor Canada Day--I can't begin to describe how wonderful this little book is! Only 154 pages so it is a quick read and worth every moment!
I like being told the tale of a life from its beginnings, the twists and turns and the sudden jolts way back in time that make it so that a person finds himself sixty years later, eighty years later, with that certain gaze, those hands, that way of telling you that life has been good or bad.
pickWow! This book was amazing. The characters were well developed, quirky, and unforgettable.
