Was fortunate to attend the Chicago Public Library Foundation Awards dinner tonight. Honorees included Christina Henríquez, Chance the Rapper and Ann Patchett. Came home with a stack of books to read included a new annotated edition of the tagged book which goes on sale next week. Such a fun evening celebrating libraries, books, authors, and creating.

Fun colorful book. Would save for younger readers 2/3rd down.

I have not read this author‘s first book, but i absolutely fell in love with this one. Magical and historical and so, so interesting to read! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Adding this to my growing list of disappointing travel memoirs. Partially because I read it immediately after How to Live Free in a Dangerous World, one of my favorites reads of the year, it was hard not to compare the two. The author of this book seems like one of those typical Americans who travels to places solely to say he traveled there. He didn't seem to care much about the cultures or the experiences, just checking places off his list 🙄

“Full of big ideas and marvellously peculiar characters.” Oh I did love this. It was quiet, gentle, crazy, peculiar, completely absorbing. I fell hard for all those characters and it broke my heart 🐍
