Thank you @dabbe for the #TLT tag! 🤗

Hard to narrow it to three, but…

1️⃣ The tagged book-love & grief in the life of a teenage girl in 1987. If you haven‘t read it, you must. 💙

2️⃣ Little Women -it‘s a classic & my first bildungsroman love. 💚

3️⃣ Never Let Me Go-I find people either love or really dislike this one, but it‘s love for me. Bleak, dystopian coming of age.🩶

Who else wants to share their three? Consider yourself tagged! 🤗

dabbe I'm making a list, and checking it twice; gonna share with everyone whether they're naughty or nice! Thanks for sharing. 💚💙💚 1mo

#BookMail is the best mail! Lydia Davis decided that her new collection of short stories would not be available on the A word. a bookshop.org published title, their proceeds share with an independent bookstore you have selected, or indies in general. Bought Trust too. On & off about it ,finally decided yes ! Add it to #TBRMountain

Pickpick

Oh my God, I finished a book! One of the downsides of writing is never having time to read anything but your own stupid manuscript, and one of the great joys of finishing a first draft is setting it aside and focusing on someone else's words for a change. Published (and set) during the middle of Russia's shadow war in eastern Ukraine, the story follows a beekeeper and resident of Donbas turned nomad as he searches for peace and tranquility.

The_Penniless_Author This reminded me of The Seventh Seal in a way, the MC managing to eke out small moments of happiness in the solitude of the countryside before war and misery manage to find him again. Very much a slow-burn, world-building kind of novel that paints a very effective picture of what war means to people's day-to-day lives. Also, weirdly prescient dream sequence the MC and friend are celebrating the end of "the Future War" 1y
Leftcoastzen Nice review! It‘s on my #TBRMountain 1y
