I‘ve missed you dear #littens as I‘ve been in a lot of pain this week - sciatic pain can get excruciating. When able to focus, I continue to devour the Emma series. 😊

Still catching up on reviews!
Plenty of Hawkes in Vol. 6, which makes it one of my favorites. In this installment, Emma is reading Whitman. Aflame, after finishing “Song of Myself,” Emma asks Pierce “what to do with such language?” He advises, “Take what you will as a talisman…carry it in the pocket of your soul.”
I‘m not a natural re-reader but these may stand a chance! Though not always happy, it feels a comfort to have them “in my pocket.”
“Oh, how words love Hawkes. They wrap around the unexpected inflections of his voice, eager, offering their best cadence and lilt and soul. They know him well, and he them. Almost as if words are the one thing in his life he has never had to push away. He speaks words the way they pound in my chest. And it feels like a miracle, finding such a dear part of oneself walking around in someone else‘s body.”
My brain is toast from the holiday so I picked up volume 6 in this delightful series, knowing I‘ll enjoy it thoroughly. I definitely need fiction rather than non-fiction right now. #seriesloves2023 @TheSpineView @Andrew65
I cannot remember who on Litsy recommend this to me, but thank you. It was delightful. I heard Millie Bobby Brown in my head as the narrator probably because it evokes the spirit and tone of Enola Holmes. This clever novella manages to be both exciting yet light. I will definitely read more volumes. #moodreading Edit: @Jess_Read_This perhaps?
