Mini haul from the Brooklyn Book Festival. It was a miserable rainy day and many vendors couldn't display their books. I was better this year about checking to see what was available at the library and mostly only buying harder to find books (or the ones with good deals). I always buy from Gaudy Boy, a very small press that publishes SE Asia authors and other harder to find areas. Tagged book is an anthology of Burmese writers.

sarahbarnes Looks like a fantastic stack! 📚 6mo
BarbaraBB Wow. I don‘t know any of these! 6mo
Liz_M @BarbaraBB That was the point! 😁 The top one was longlisted for the National Book Award for Translated Literature and has gotten good reviews on LT.

@sarahbarnes Thanks! I might even read some of these one day.... 6mo
sarahbarnes Ha! I get it! 😂 @BarbaraBB - I Who Have Never Known Men is on my TBR since seeing a great review of it from @batsy. ♥️ 6mo
