I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

I opened June #bookspin and found a surprise I left to myself! Favorite author from a favorite bookstore I visited with favorite person @mrp27 on vacation a few years ago❣️

This was just a so-so read for me. It moved slowly and I was not really invested in the characters. I have the 'sequel' too and will probably pass on that one. I've read other Ivan Doig's books (The Bartender's Tale, Last Bus to Wisdom) and really enjoyed them so I don't feel too bad that this one was a disappointment.
That's Nellie that I so rudely cropped in my haste to get all my 2017 reads posted. I'll make it up to her. #catsoflitsy
#favoriteauthors, in no particular order. Top to bottom, left to right: Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Margaret Atwood, Ivan Doug, Jane Smiley, Ann Patchett, Thomas Hardy (looking a bit like Poirot), Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Wilfred Owen, Emily Dickinson, William Shakespeare, John Donne, Maya Angelou, Anthony Trollope, Elizabeth Gaskell, and Billy Collins. #awesomeautumnbooks @Jess7
@ValerieAndBooks I have had a similar experience! Anyone else catch cover twinsies? #recycledcovers
This was pressed on me by a friend a few years ago. I read the back cover blurb and knew I'd hate it. She kept asking, I kept dodging until I gave in. Turns out that it's a magnificent sleeper, a gentle thing that is also somehow strong enough to break your heart and leave you gasping. Trust me.
