Meet the Austins | Madeleine L'Engle

#BookBinge
Day 25
#SmallTownSetting

I feel like sometimes people forget that L'Engle wrote more than just the Wrinkle in Time books. I loved her Austin family books, too!

@Eggs, @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

Eggs I adore thé Austins ???!! Great choice? 8mo

#BookBinge

Edenton, North Carolina is the #SmallTownSetting of this book that I read for a book tour review party a couple of years ago.

I especially liked learning about the New Deal Post Office Mural Project that featured in the story. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_post_office_murals

This book takes place in a small town In Minnesota. It‘s 1961. Nathan Drum, the father in this book is one of my favorite male characters of all time. #bookcrush #bookbinge #smalltownsetting

The Go-Between | L.P. Hartley

This was my favorite read of 2022. It‘s in my top five best books of all time. The novel has one of the best opening lines,

”The past is a foreign country, they do things differently there.”

Leftcoastzen It is an excellent book! 8mo
dabbe LOVE this book! It reminds me of ATONEMENT, too. 💚🩷💚 8mo
quietlycuriouskate Oh, so *that's* where that quote is from! 8mo

Cuilin @dabbe apparently it was a great influence on him, and Atonement was an homage to The Go Between 8mo
Cuilin @Leftcoastzen yes 🙌 8mo
dabbe @Cuilin I wondered. That makes total sense! And, I read it (& ATONEMENT) in 2022 as well! 🤩 8mo
Cuilin @quietlycuriouskate yes, such a clever opening line, I mean you have to read on. 8mo
Deblovestoread On my shelf….this helps move it closer to the top. 💜 8mo
plemmdog I need to move it up in my TBR pile. 8mo

#BookBinge Day 25: We spent seven days in Bodrum, a small town in Turkey by the Aegean sea, and it‘s giving #SmallTownSetting vibe as can be seen in this photo I took in one of their stores. Dogs everywhere.

Leftcoastzen Love it! 8mo

Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I love learning more about the Amish community. We have many families in our small town. 8mo
fredamans @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks Suzanne Woods Fisher and Tricia Goyer are my favorite Amish fiction writers. I highly suggest both!!! Tricia was raised Amish. So her books are very near and true to the community. 8mo
