Thank you, my dear friend @HeatherBlue for picking out such different but all intriguing books, as always. I don't know where to begin! I hope you and yours have a lovely Christmas, and hopefully, 2026 slows down for the both of us. 💕

#roll100 #snowedin Meh. This was ok. Some of the descriptions felt a bit gratuitous. Probably need to read something a bit more uplifting now!

⭐️ blech! I hated this book! Not one redeeming character. Maybe Peter, but that‘s it. I‘m not offended at all@by some T matter when handled well. This failed in all levels. Like the protagonist needing to make a voice, the author should have chosen to write crudely or lovely prose but not both, it was jarring to the reader. Why didn‘t she get therapy and learn her feelings were trauma bonding it would have saved us all from@this.

I read this book because Lidija Hilje recommended it and I loved her book Slanting Towards the Sea. The Paper Palace is a love story, just like Slanting, but not as good.
Elle is staying with her husband and kids at Cape Cod. As always Jonas is there too, with his own family. They used to love each other but never really were together. This year everything changes and Elle has a tough choice to make.
An enjoyable read and a light pick.

Bookwormjillk I was just staring at this on my shelf. Thanks for the review. 2mo
squirrelbrain I really liked this when I read it, but it‘s not as good as Slanting. 2mo
TheLudicReader I have just added Slanting Towards the Sea to my tbr list because I loved The Paper Palace (I am currently reading it for the third time as it‘s next month‘s book club pick). If Slanting is better, I need to read it. 2mo

My reading has been slow lately, I‘ve had way too little time! I am reading and enjoying the tagged book though and have just started The Barbizon.
The Beauvoir memoir is one I‘ve been interested in for a long time and I hope to finally read it now!

Aims42 I really enjoyed “The Barbizon”, I found it fascinating that such a place existed 🤩 Happy Reading!! 2mo
LeeRHarry Enjoyed The Paper Palace - hope you continue to do so. 😊 2mo
