A quite enjoyable book about characters finding themselves after horrible situations and a search for the lost bookshop. It was a good mix of magical realism with some historical fiction blended in. I do think the characters were a bit surface level and I feel like more could have been done with the magical portion of the plot but it was a good escape from the world at this current time.

I chose these for Jace and I to read together for #foodandlit this month. The alphabet book was cute although kind of grim for a kid‘s book. Let‘s See Ireland was not my cup of tea. Does anyone have any good recs for children‘s books set in Ireland? 🇮🇪

GingerAntics Well, Ireland can be kind of grim. They‘ve been dealing with some stuff for like 900 years, thanks to the bloody English. I have a couple books of Irish fairytales I could recommend, but again they can be slightly darker than we usually think of when we think of fairytales. 2h

I‘m glad #FoodAndLit #Ireland got me to finally read this book that‘s been on my TBR forever. It takes place in Ireland around Christmas time in the 1980‘s. It‘s short, but impactful as the main character wrestles with what his life means and what he owes to others.

Butterfinger I really want to watch the movie. 10h
Bookwormjillk @Butterfinger good to know there's a movie! 9h

I read this for #FoodandLit (Ireland) and loved it. It's about a woman trying to find herself and ends up in Ireland on a whim. Great characters! @Catsandbooks @Texreader One spot for #ISpyBingoFeb @TheAromaofBooks #Read2025 @DieAReader

Ha! Aspiring novelist Dixon doesn‘t have a high regard for Dickens!
