#CharacterCharm Day 13: #TimeSpaceTraveler - i think being stuck in just one particular day in time qualifies. Still don‘t know how i feel about this little book. Qualifies too for #ReadTheWorld2025 - Denmark - translated from Danish.
pickBrilliant. Engaging and thoughtful.
Hard to think of anything to add to the outpouring of Litsy love for this one!

#FinallyReading 🎉
I've been on the hold list since the International Booker Longlist was announced, and it's finally my turn, just in time for Women in Translation Month! So excited to dive in.

pick🙇🏾♀️🙇🏾♀️ Now I have to wait until November (18th???) for volumes 3 & 4! Poop.
Cliff hanger.
Ummmmm maybe I‘m over protective or American culture is different, but I would not let my 5-6 year old son go with a woman I just met that day to a toy shop while I worked on a laptop in a cafe. 😐
On the other hand, my husband let some Ethiopian women unknown to him take our 3 month old baby into a bathroom in the Addis Ababa airport to change his diaper. First time dad - overwhelmed. 🤭
pickTara is stuck some weird time glitch and is blindly trying to find a way out!
I ordered Volume II halfway thru! I‘m going to be frustrated when I have to wait for III & IV to be released in November. I‘m sure I‘ll preorder.
pickAfter reading Vol I, I immediately got ahold of Vol II. I couldn‘t put these down and can‘t wait to read the next one. I‘m mesmerized by the way the books use the premise of being stuck in time to examine the things that matter to us, our relationships to other people, places, and points in time. At the same time they are heartbreaking and have a sense of adventure.
