Top row: books that I've had on hold FOREVER.
Bottom row: this week's assigned reading for my Materials for Youth class. 🤓
I read a few books, Two #1001Books. Fresh Dirt from the Grave was mostly set in #Bolivia for #FoodandLit. It and Voyager are #WomeninTranslation. Patsy worked for #LGBTQIA2025 bingo and Three books were for #192025. Martyr! was just because I had been recommend it so many times.
pickThis was such a unique and quirky read, both funny and philosophical. What is required for your life to be considered meaningful, valuable, worth living? What might we be missing that is right in front of us? This was a fun read am grateful to the author for the vulnerability he took in writing Cyrus‘s character. This was a fun and enjoyable read. I would highly recommend for readers who enjoy character-based literary fiction.
I bought this book solely on the fact that the cover was absolutely gorgeous!! Bonus… it was also a beautiful novel!

Now, I can imagine your surprised expressions: wait, Iranians watched Columbo? Just think about it: from the moment the United States rests one authoritative hand on a country's politics, with the other hand it loads the people with all sorts of military, industrial, cultural, and food products. Imperialism is no joke! Not only did Iranians watch Columbo, they also watched Bewitched, Little House on the Prairie, Peyton Place...
You've probably noticed that since mobile phones became ubiquitous, there's an imaginary line separating people of childbearing age. On one side are the people who have pictures of their kids set as their backgrounds, and are always waiting for the first possible opportunity to turn their phones so you can see them.....
[Bit of a jump from discussion of the Iranian revolution...]
so-soI am still wondering how I feel about this book . I did like the relationships between the characters but I would have liked to see more political drama and hardship in reference to the characters.
