I was flying through The Book Thief and not ready for it to end yet. Started The Saturday Evening Girls Club, about 2 Italian Catholic and 2 Jewish Russian immigrant friends in Boston‘s North End in the early 1900s. Looking forward to the proverbs at the beginning of each chapter.

Not often I read a book with a character I don't like. The father in this book has gotten on my last nerve. #immigrantfiction #nyc
