Here are a few thoughts on Happy All the Time by Laurie Colwin, 1978. This was the perfect change of pace for me after a dark read, with touching scenes, sharp observations, and plenty of witty dialogue #BookReview #audiobooks #Storygraph #reading #books

I’ve written a few thoughts on The Flight of the Maidens by Jane Gardam, 2000, an excellent coming of age story about three girls growing up in post war Yorkshire. When Jane Gardam died earlier this year I thought I really need to read her and this was the only book by her available in hardcopy Braille in the RNIB Library… #bookstodon #BookReview #Braille #reading #Storygraph

I'm 38% through my #Storygraph book goal (78) for the year & 51% through my pages goal (20K) but STILL haven't got into my growing PTW of #kDrama #cDrama and #jDrama because I'm finding stuff like this just FAR too riveting to put down. #Reading #bookstodon #linguistics
