Lincoln in the Bardo | George Saunders

Pickpick

Sometimes, after I buy a book that is almost uniformly praised, I start to avoid it. It weighs on me like a dreary obligation. That's how it was for me and Lincoln in the Bardo. I finally tricked myself into reading the first few pages. And then fell in. So different and memorable and haunting. I recommend adding the audiobook to help make sense of the book's structure. Great read!

MicheleinPhilly I know that feeling! I think that is what has prevented me from reading Homegoing despite having bought it in June. 8y
TerryT19 Homegoing and The Underground Railroad are both in my house as well. Hopefully, this will help me pick them up! (edited) 8y
