pickA beautiful novel in verse that explores themes of identity, self, loss of self, and family. #poetrymatters #novelinverse #nationalpoetrymonth
pick⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Written in prose, home is not a country is a poignant & moving book about finding yourself & loving yourself. It's about making your life, despite the imperfections, 100% your own. And therein living it without dismay over what could have been & instead simply being proud of who you are & grateful for what is.
Can NOT recommend this book highly enough! (Even the acknowledgement section at the end made me cry. This book was just THAT good.)
pickI had bought this book used over ten years ago. I loved the way it was written. It is an Arthurian tale mainly told through the eyes of Elaine. I enjoyed reading this book. I rated this book a 4 out of 5 stars.
This got me in the feels because my name is not Aisha and it doesn't mean "she who lives", but the rest sums me up to a tee since I lost my Jon 18 months and 2 weeks ago. ???
My June pick for #12booksof2024 with @Andrew65 I actually listened to the audiobook with a friend. Her class was reading it and she wanted to read it ahead of time. Long car ride from Florida to SC meant we listened to most of it, and I finished it at home. So so good!
