I‘m not okay. This one is in the running for my best book of the year. The premise is really messed up, but the love and grief, it‘s all so beautiful. I couldn‘t understand how it could possibly work. But it‘s such a good story. Such a human story. “Lewis tattooed her with beautiful poetry in a place she would never see but somehow read every second.” #AuldLangSpine @DebinHawaii I never would have picked this up otherwise. @monalyisha

monalyisha Agree wholeheartedly! 1w
AmyG I would tell people about this book and it sounded a bit nuts. But it worked-totally. Such a beautiful story. 1w
DebinHawaii I‘m so glad you enjoyed it! It does feel a little odd when you are recommending it as @AmyG mentioned, but it‘s such a strange & beautiful story. 1w

“As Lewis held Wren's hands, he thought of her kindness, her intelligence, her inner beauty. Yet, just as he married these known qualities, he also married her vast unknowns. And she, his.”

A fantasy of love, transformation, loss, and eternity.

The premise is wild—a man turning into a shark—but this story is tender, emotional, and beautifully written. The dialogues between Wren and Lewis really stayed with me: funny, raw, and full of love. Emily Habeck blends the surreal with the human in a way that broke my heart and healed it, all at once!

Thank you so much for sending me this wonderful book @Yuki_Onna 💝

Jas16 Great review. I loved this book so much 2mo
AmyG I, too, loved this book. The author took a ridiculous idea and wrote it so that it became real in my mind, totally believable. (edited) 2mo

BarbaraBB @AmyG Exactly that! 2mo
sarahbarnes Yes! I went into this one so skeptical and I loved it too! 2mo
Lesliereadsalot So good right? So imaginative. I totally bought into the story. 2mo
BarbaraBB @Jas16 @sarahbarnes @Lesliereadsalot I loved how they both dealt with what was happening to Lewis. 2mo

My yard has turned into an absolute JUNGLE this summer. I've never seen the ivy come up onto the porch before...oops. 😅 I'll deal with it this weekend, but it's also kind of a vibe?

I started this book this morning and it's super weird. A man starts morphing into a shark within the first few pages. I'm intrigued enough to keep going, but definitely unlike anything I've read before.

Soubhiville I loved that book! And I like your porch, feels very private and shaded. 2mo
HeatherBookNerd Great book. So unique. 2mo

JamieArc I liked it a lot too. There came a point where I just forgot how weird of a story it was and just went with it. 2mo
kspenmoll Mine too. I have an invasive vine traveling up to 2nd floor windows- 2mo
BarbaraBB I am reading it right now too and loving it so far 2mo
LittlebearReads I read this when it was brand new, and still think about it now—it‘s SO weird, but also extraordinarily beautiful (what it says about resiliency through change, especially). 2mo

#WeeklyForecast 28/25

I am back home and have lots of work ahead of me so I have to temper my reading mojo! I am about to start the third book in the On the Calculation of Volume series, which has fortunately been translated in Dutch.
I also hope to read Shark Heart. Coco & Frankenstein I will combine audio and print. Audio was free and I‘ll probably spend some time driving this week.

AmyG Shark Heart was lovely. 2mo
RobES I loved Cleopatra & Frankenstein - enjoy 💕 2mo
CBee @AmyG @BarbaraBB I loved Shark Heart 💚 2mo

Tamra Lucky you! I think the 3rd & 4th in the Volume series won‘t be released in English until November. 😬 2mo
squirrelbrain Have a good (if rather busy!) week! 2mo
Suet624 Sorry to hear your vacation has come to an end but glad you have some good reading to look forward to. 2mo
Lesliereadsalot Work already! ☹️ Really liked Shark Heart. So jealous you have that third volume. Hope you had the best time on vacation. Tanned and relaxed is the way to go! 2mo
BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain @Suet624 @Lesliereadsalot it‘s back to work and books but that‘s okay for now! I am totally chill after three weeks of wind and sun and waves 🩵 2mo
