May's miserable weather 🌧️ 🌧️ meant a banging month for reading! I managed to read 10 books & these are my favourites.
Catherine Lacey's Nobody is Ever Missing blew me away. Jon Krakauer can write about things I don't care about (mountaineering) and I am GRIPPED!
Fanny Howe's memoir/philosophical treatise left me thinking.
Sour Cherry is a Bluebeard origin story.
South Riding is a 1930s Middle March
Open, Heaven ripped my heart open.

merelybookish My biggest disappointment was 5d
merelybookish I managed to complete 3 prompts for #192025 and read 3 books off my shelf, one that I've had since 2018. 5d
Ruthiella Nice wrap up! Is Sarah Burton Dorothea Brooke? 🤔 5d
merelybookish @Ruthiella Thanks! Good question!! Arguably. She does kind of dedicate herself to the greater good. FWIW, I don't think South Riding quite as good as Middlemarch but the scope felt the same. 5d
sarahbarnes Sounds like some great reading! I‘m stacking Sour Cherry and I loved Lacey‘s other books once read so adding this one to my list now as well! 📚 5d

I had to pop out and capture my #secretsantagoespostal #wintersolsticebookexchange against this stunning winter sunrise. The birds' timing were perfect, heading to my neighbor who puts out seed for them every morning!
