This is the first that came to mind. I loved the book and movie adaptation.
pickI love a good epistolary novel-an American reader&writer begins a correspondence with a bookshop owner in London in 1948, that continues for 20 years.

The shop at the #Globe was amazing! I got these really cute graphic novels that also include some educational material suitable for kids. Much Ado about Nothing, the sticker, card and blue magnet is a birthday present for a friend. The rest is all for me. I got the dying Ophelia poster from #TateBritain.

“Oh, earth, you're too wonderful for anybody to realize you. Do any human beings ever realize life while they live it -- every, every minute?”
This play is dear to my heart. And timeless. That‘s what makes it a classic for me ❤️😢💔

#BasedOnTrueStory Spent my birthday exploring nearby Dayton Tennessee, site of the famous trial which found John T. Scopes guilty of illegally teaching evolution in 1925. A cautionary tale where too much sounds too familiar today. Drove by the courthouse and found this charming shop (Pizza, Books, & Ice Cream). #Aboutabook @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
pickI had the opportunity to hear Kushner speak a few years ago and it was amazing. I also got a signed copy of his Pulitzer Prize winning play, a work I was familiar with but had never read nor seen on stage. It‘s a powerful story that offers an unflinching look at the AIDS epidemic, the stigma, fear, devastation, & lack of understanding. It also touches on racism, antisemitism, politics & more. An incredible read that gives you a lot to think about.
