When your last doordash delivery lands you right next to the Friends of the Library bookstore it's definitely fate. Especially if two fellow #littens have you on the verge of reading something you decided not to, ehhmm @TorieStorieS and @cassareada 😂 Unfortunately no Fredrik Backman to be found, but these beauties were just begging for a home 😁

I do kind of hate the cover after reading the book (as one of the protagonists is gender nonconforming and would only dress like the cover image as a disguise not as herself), but this book was super cute and fun and I really enjoyed it. The protagonists are relatable and funny, the adventure was interesting and exciting, and I enjoy the side characters a lot too. Looking forward to continuing the series. Definitely recommended!
This book joins in my personal battle of the favorites. A deeply emotive story of desire at a time and place in a society that refused to recognize its existence. Beautiful, powerful, honest. All the feels. This will haunt me. Full of Dublinese, the language was rich, while challenging for some no doubt but worth the journey. @BarbaraBB I recommend.

“A glass-blower, remember, breathes life into a vessel, giving it shape and form and sometimes beauty; but he can, with that same breath, shatter and destroy it.”
I have finally finished this book!!! I think the only reason it took me so long to read the book is because my grandmother has been in the hospital for almost three weeks recovering from a brain bleed. I love the characters and the story of the book!!!
