pickI wanted to read this because of all that was said about it in Mary Rubio's bio of LM Montgomery. The critics in the late 1920s said Jalna was an example of the way forward for Canadian literature, with Montgomery's books being relegated to children's books exclusively. I started this with a feeling of loyalty towards LMM and wanted to hate it, but I didn't. It had some moments/lines that didn't age well, but that's true for most books from 1927.
pickI love this author so much. Her books are sweet and fun and just a touch steamy. The atmosphere is always so perfect for a summer read. I really enjoy the characters and the overall ambiance of her writing. This book was just a lot of fun. I loved the main characters and their story and really genuinely wanted more by the end. Loved this one!
My first Margaret Atwood book 📖
pickI enjoyed this curiosity, found it wonderfully done, found the writing, which focuses so much on the sound, always interesting and terrific, with its own rhythm and life. And I say this even I didn't really get it. (I missed a lot, as I discovered afterwards reading online reviews) This maybe should have won the Booker (and I loved the winner, Prophet Song)
pickAn enjoyable mystery with likable cast of characters, especially our favorite homicide detective CHIEF Inspector Gamache. However, I went too long between this and the prior book. I don‘t recall enough of what happened. Not quite a standalone book. But… PIE! Great scene with lemon meringue pie 😋
