“I was hazy with wine, hazy with Nick. I nestled into my seat and marveled at his endlessness, only inches away, his infinite capacity to shelter me.”

One of my favorites! I felt sad, mad, hopeful, scared, heart warmed - all the feels!

Amir and his father fled Afghanistan after the Russian invasion. Behind, they leave a comfortable life...and Hassan, the son of one of their servants. Amir and him were best friends, almost like brothers, despite Amir's frequent jealousy. One day their lives get shattered and both will have to learn how to live with what happened. Years later Amir receives a call and will have to decide if he can go back and find redemption.

nanuska_153 The setting, Afghanistan in 1970, is very interesting and the author's writing is immersive. The story is both heartbreaking and beautiful. I think I cried for about 2/3 of the book. Trigger warnings: sexual violence and child abuse. 1mo

I‘m glad I finally read something by this author. I‘ll definitely read more by her.

It took a bit to settle into, because at first I didn‘t care for the main character. But once it grabbed me the story had me hooked. Very sad, lots of content warnings.

Venkman wishes I hadn‘t woken him for a photo this morning. Or is he winking at you?

Aims42 Me and Venkman are on the same page 😜🥱😴 2mo

Hooked_on_books I‘ve been posting on here but not browsing much because we are finally moving! This last month has been pretty crazy with shipping out the cars and packing the container to ship all our stuff. We move at the beginning of March. I‘ll get you an address as soon as I sign up for a P.O. Box. 1mo
Soubhiville @Hooked_on_books That‘s great news! I can‘t wait to hear how everything has gone with selling the farm and where you are ending up. I hope it all goes smoothly for you. It‘s been quite an adventure but I know you‘ll be glad to get to your new home. 1mo

A beautifully written book about friendship

When a British family wins Q9 million, their lives change forever… proving that the TLC show THE LOTTERY RUINED MY LIFE isn‘t solely an American phenomenon. For 15 years, Lexi & Jake played the same numbers along with their two best couple friends. A fight breaks out between them… one week before Lexi buys the winning ticket. The ugly side of greed is on full display here, though the predictable plot gets bogged down with descriptions of wealth.

⭐️⭐️💫

A harrowing read on an important topic, but it seems to be written for a Western audience and lacked nuance. 🎧 #reesesbookclub

MartinaLove My heart is still broken by that book. 4mo
