Last year between Christmas and New Years my younger sister, Donna in the right, my Mom and I (on the left) went to New York; we stopped in at the New York Public Library!!! 📚

This is certainly a #fairytaleofnewyork. At least at first. Ok, maybe there‘s some fraud involved. But John Gluck still had a hand in making Christmas more merry for the needy children of NYC.

TrishB Good one 👍🏻 haven‘t heard of this one! 6y
Cinfhen Cute photo!! 6y
emilyhaldi I only read the first (and charitable!) first half 😆 too bad it turned into a scam ... 6y

This felt a bit like a #fairytaleofNewYork - Oscar‘s quest to find out the secret behind his father‘s key had all the fairy tale elements, and with a sweet character like Oscar, I couldn‘t help but love this book ❤️

TrishB I loved this too 💕 6y
KarenUK Me too! 💕this one... 6y
Cinfhen Well played!! Love your photo 6y

Forever: A Novel | Pete Hamill

Whether you call it magical realism or historical fiction, Forever is an engaging #fairytaleofnewyork whose protagonist lives forever, as long as he doesn‘t leave Manhattan. #winterwonderland @TrishB @Cinfhen

Lcsmcat @Cinfhen @TrishB @erzascarletbookgasm You should read it! Hamill is a New York historian who obviously loves his city. So he gets the history right. And the exploration of the blessing / curse of living forever is well done. How do you get close to someone when you know that they will die before you, that they will age and you won‘t, when there is literally no one who can share your memories? How do you process the changes from 1790 to 2001? ❤️it! 6y
Cinfhen Sounds like a good bookclub choice!!! I read this last year but hated it 6y

CarolynM OMG!! We used to watch this show every week. It was kind of hypnotic - all those long pauses in the dialogue while Vincent and Catherine gazed at one another. I haven't thought about it in years. Thanks for the memories😀. @batsy 6y

Cinfhen I feel like i watched this... but I don‘t remember actually watching it 6y
