Icebreaker | Hannah Grace
post image

Reading these books at the same time is starting to confuse me.

Going to focus on Icebreaker since it's due back in less than a week.

I enjoyed this one so much, partly because my time in Berkeley overlapped a little with the characters; they‘re a few years younger than I am.
There‘s a Spotify playlist of the songs featured in the book and that‘s always fun.

What have you read/watched this December? Are you done for the year? Or planning a few more?

Such a busy time of year, I wanted to go ahead and post Persuasion 'Now' discussion. Join in whenever you can.

I've got one more watch party scheduled for Becoming Jane. Saved it for December because it's set around holidays.

Crinoline_Laphroaig I would love to get to Persuasion 2007 & 1995 and the new documentary Jane Austen Rise of a Genius over Twixmas.

AnneCecilie Nothing so far, but would love to see Netflix‘s Persuasion, there‘s so many opinions about it 4d
BookishMarginalia Rewatched my fave P&P adaptation, the Colin Firth version 💜 4d
AnishaInkspill I watched the BBC drama of Pride and Prejudice, before reading the novel of which I am almost 2/3 through. It‘s Jane Austen, not sure if it‘s ever possible to finish with Jane Austen. And I‘ll look out for your Persuasion discussion. I'm not sure if you've come across this, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvkqlWCgcck , Modern Persuasion, an updated take retold as a romcom. 3d
julieclair @AnishaInkspill I‘m hoping to read that this month! (Or next…. Or at some point in my life… 😂) 3d
peanutnine I'm planning on watching the Netflix adaptation of Persuasion and I have a book retelling on hold. It will probably wait until the new year, I'm deep in holiday reads lol 3d
AnishaInkspill @julieclair 😂 I've been here many times 😂 2d

Heart the Lover | Lily King

Ok, so halfway through, I thought this was going to be a ‘meh‘ book, and that maybe Lily King‘s a little overrated (this is my first time reading her). But then, I‘m reading the ending, and I‘m blown away by it. I get all the hype now.

A book about love, friendship, and the relationships that mark us for life. King writes so evocatively about the intoxication of first love and how huge and impossible life choices loom when one is young. And then how the consequences of those choices follow you into adulthood. An exquisite novel.

mcctrish I love Lily King so much!!! I hope I get this for Christmas 4d
