#DynamicDs

Picking this one for #Dad not just because of the title but because it was a favorite of my Dad‘s (& mine!) & he played the lead in community theater. Also, as you can see from his script in the middle of the pile (excuse the recycled photo), his name was Don, so another “Dynamic D” for this month‘s theme. 2026 will make 30 years since he passed away & I still miss him every day.💙

A captivating anthology that brings together an extraordinary collection of correspondence from across history, culture, and human experience. Originally stemming from the popular website of the same name, this book compiles letters that are poignant, humorous, enlightening, and sometimes heartbreaking—each offering a unique glimpse into the minds of their writers.

BooksandCoffee4Me Have you read The Only Thing That Counts, the letters between Hemingway and his editor, Maxwell Perkins? These letters share insights into Hemingway -- the real, unheroic, determined, obstinate, fiery, pensive, colliegial Hemingway; of course, the wisdom, almost father-like attention, and expertise of Perkins and discussions regarding F Scott Fitzgerald add to the depth and enjoyment of reading this book. 1mo

#CoverStories Day 26: Love shared through #Letters is finely wrought in this strange series that is a work of art with the correspondence in handwritten missives found in each page. My review here: https://wp.me/pDlzr-coy

What a clever little mixed media mystery. I was really hoping I‘d like this and thankfully I did! The large cast of characters took some time to remember, but after I got everyone down I couldn‘t stop reading. I went into this knowing very little beside the format and I think that‘s the best way to go in. Recommend if you‘re looking for a mystery that‘s a little different.

I listened to this charming epistolary novel on audio, and it was the perfect medium for it. This short, heartfelt story unfolds through letters exchanged between two women in the 1960s—a young, adventurous Californian and a seasoned writer in the Pacific Northwest. The story is filled with warmth, endearing characters, and plenty of delicious food references (and even a recipe or two!). A comforting palate cleanser. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 ❤️📚

😭😭😭My husband & I were recently displaced from our home by a fire. No one was hurt & our things were fine, we did have to look for a new home. He knew how difficult an experience this has been, including having to seriously downsize my library. As a housewarming gift, he found something I I have been searching for- an Italian translation of my favorite book! Next Jan 1st, when I do my annual read it will be in Italian! 😭😭😭

Jas16 I am so sorry to hear about your home. 2mo
HardcoverHearts @Jas16 Thank you so much. We are very fortunate to have been able to land on our feet. We will be fine and I‘m just so happy to be done with purging and packing. Now it‘s just unboxing and purging. 😅 2mo

HardcoverHearts @Ruthiella not a problem at all, but I wanted to make sure credit was given where it was due! 😊 Especially since @Leoslittlebooklife had to get it from Rome and then send it to me. 2mo
