pickThe writing was snappy, witty and sharp, very Normal People vibes! I loved how the all the characters were a little flawed but so lovable!

Amazingly enough, my IRL bookclub has picked a Persephone book for our current read (after 27 years together). And no, it WASN‘T my pick. 😆
I was going to ask you, @Centique , if you‘d read this classic New Zealand coming-of-age novel but I see you are the only other person to post about it on here! I‘m really enjoying it.
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 (4.25/5)
💛 Hauntingly beautiful, poetic writing
💛 Intriguing studies of isolation, identity, and alienation
💛 Some of the stories had a dystopian, “Twilight Zone“ kind of vibe that I dug
💛 Definitely one to come back to - additional readings will enhance the experience

pickFinally finished this book and loved it BUT the first half took me weeks to read because nothing really happened and I wasn‘t invested in the characters. The second half I gobbled up in a couple days. Basically, it‘s the story of gay siblings living together and their day to day life. They have a large, complicated yet lovable family and though far from perfect, they have each other‘s back through rain or shine with ALL the love.
pickThis book was very chaotic, (in a good way!), and had one of the most beautiful endings I‘ve read this year ❤️
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Library holds coming in and I have been looking forward to this one. It already feels like a hot mess and I‘m here for it! 😅
pickWhat just happened?!
I don't usually read feel-good books because they tend to make me feel like 💩. Funny books rarely vibe with my sense of humour. Loud, chaotic situations (and especially families!) make me want to hide under my desk. And don't get me started on weddings!
I only picked this up because of Litsy.
I loved Greta and Valdin, the characters and the book, both.
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Funny and feel-good, but in a chaotic real life kind of way. I usually stay away from books described as funny because they‘re cringeworthy, but this isn‘t like that at all.
Definitely literary, more about the characters and their development than the plot. It‘s about a brother and sister who live together in New Zealand. Their lives, their loves, and their family.
