French Braid | Anne Tyler

pick

First book by #AnneTyler. #FrenchBraid is a very well-crafted and quiet book about a family, with a focus on the matriarch. There were a lot of characters & names in this, but it didn‘t feel stressful.

Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️,75/5

Ladder of Years | Anne Tyler

pick

#LadderofYears #AnneTyler #BookSpinBingo

Delia Grinstead, 40-year-old mother of three almost-grown children, on a sudden impulse, walks away from her marriage, hitches a ride into the unknown, and settles in a strange new town. But soon after she begins her impersonal, unencumbered new life, fresh responsibilities inevitably accumulate.

TheAromaofBooks

EadieB This is a story about the 90's but feels more like the 50's. It has themes of abandonment, identity and a second chance for love. Has bits of humor but depressing in parts. Tyler's books are enjoyable. I think I will read Dinner At The Homesick Restaurant next. Read this and find out how Delia seems to have found a new and exciting life. 3y

TheAromaofBooks Great progress!!! 3y

Clock Dance | Anne Tyler

so-so

This was a very different kind of read for me. Anne Tyler is a prolific writer. If not for her writing I would've finished the book. Despite the slow-paced plot I enjoyed reading and getting to know the characters. I might check out her future book(s) if it comes highly recommended. Full review: https://hookedonbookzblog.wordpress.com/2018/09/28/jees-review-of-clockdance-by-... #ClockDance #annetyler

cassareada This was the first book I read by her and I was definitely not a fan of it. I was told not to give up on Anne Tyler and that "The Accidental Tourist" is one of her better books. So I'll eventually read that to give her a second chance. 6y

Jee_HookedOnBookz @cassiopia thanks for the recommendation! I'm going to give that a try :) I liked her writing style. I just felt the premise and plot a little too quiet for my liking... Good thing I enjoyed the characters :) 6y

cassareada @Jee_HookedOnBookz you're welcome! For me, I don't know if it was her style of writing, the pace, or the lack of action that turned me off. In her defense I did just finished Dark Places, so going from a suspense book to a lazy Sunday reading may have had some influence. But I did enjoy a few of the characters like Cheryl and Sir Joe, oh and Airplane. 6y

Jee_HookedOnBookz They're my fav too :) it's hard not to love Airplane 😊 do you have a blog? Would love to follow you! :) 6y

Vinegar Girl | Anne Tyler

#VinegarGirl by #AnneTyler is a modern-retelling of Shakespeare‘s #TheTamingofTheShrew. Kate feels stuck, running house for her eccentric scientist father and uppity, pretty younger sister. Kate‘s father is on the verge of a breakthrough in his research that will help millions, but all will be lost if his lab assistant, Pyotr, is deported. Kate must decide whether her father‘s plan to save Pyotr is asking too much. #SpookyOctober #Retelling #TBR
