This is not for me. It‘s a sort of fable or fairytale as a commentary on modern times. It made me think of The Alchemist, so if you enjoyed that book you may like this one more than I did. Read by the author and that‘s a positive in this case since he has a lovely voice. #hoopla

I'm hoping to read, or at least start, these this week.
I am reading the tagged book, an ARC, and I am enjoying this brilliant authors look at how society is slowly losing its ability to be free....powerful and thought provoking.

readordierachel Talents is on my list for this week too, once I wrap up some other books. Great stack! 5y
