pickAww! My husband and I really enjoyed this book! We listened to the audiobook and enjoyed all the things that reminded of us. We love to travel and hike. Our favorite places were mentioned and we enjoyed the chemistry between the main characters. It was also emotional with Carla's dad as he went through dementia. It broke our heart. 4.5 ⭐️

A must read, Amor Towles‘ voice is always a joy for me. Set in 1950s with main characters from small town Nebraska (which as a girl from small town Nebraska I appreciate the way he accurately was able to capture this), this layered story looks at right and wrong, the meaning of legacy, and friendship in ways not always expected. Unreliable narrations with multiple POV with distinct voices, definite rec for anyone who enjoys lit fic.
pickI‘ve always thought giraffes were pretty amazing creatures, but I never fully appreciated their magnificence until I got to meet two of them up close.
This is a captivating tale that beautifully illustrates the extraordinary influence and transformative power of animals on our lives. Every aspect of this book enchanted me.

I really don‘t need to add more books to my already crazy TBR but I saw this in the #LFL and couldn‘t resist Rainbow Rowell. I haven‘t read the first book this is sequel to though, so that‘ll have to come first.🫣 I loved Fangirl so much and these fanfic characters were in the background, correct?

The town of Gros Ventre was so far from anywhere that you had to take a bus to catch the bus. #firstlinefridays
Listening to this as an audiobook! About 1/3 through and I really enjoy the voice actors. Towles writing style is always a pleasure and I‘m very interested to see how this goes. I have the next 2 days off and lots of chores to do so I‘m hoping to finish it by tomorrow night! Ambitious but hopeful 😊
so-so
