@Mitch thank you for a wonderful birthday surprise ❤️ I‘m verklempt 🥰❤️ (in my Grandmothers Yiddish voice) .
The book title is what drew me to Jonathan Franzen‘s new collection of essays. I didn‘t know anything about the author or the contents, but the title assured me that I would like this book. And I did! Many of the essays feature the author wrangling with climate change and his hobby as a birdwatcher. There‘s travel, memory, and family, too. This book gave me a greater appreciation for birds and the writer. 🦅
Here‘s the beautiful book itself! 🤩 I cannot wait to read this lovely one! Thank you @Booksnchill #jolabokaflodswap
Oh @Booksnchill T H A N K Y O U ! ! The #jolabokaflodswap box you sent was such a delight to open. The book was so beautifully wrapped that I took this picture with the wrapping on! I‘ve put the ornament on my tree, and I‘m burning the sweet little candle! Thank you the multiple chocolate confections!! This was absolutely the best box of goodies to open on Christmas Eve! Thank you! @MaleficentBookDragon
