This collection of short stories is fantastic - the kind of stories that make me want to write short stories. 😁 I‘m now off to read everything else Nors has written. Thank you @merelybookish for this wonderful gift! ❤️

While others wild swam, I took comfort in my stack of books. I only read from two, but I brought 5 because I didn‘t know what mood I would be in.

kspenmoll Love this rock pool- 9mo
Cuilin @Aims42 I knew Litsy would be my safe space for a confession. Lol 😆 9mo
rubyslippersreads Much better to have too many books than—horrors!—not enough. 🙀 9mo
Suet624 But of course! 9mo
Bookwormjillk What a spot! 9mo
Cupcake12 Great reading spot x 9mo
AllDebooks Beautiful spot. Also, there is no such thing as too many books. It's a common misconception spread by the anti-bookers and you stood up to them. I admire your contingency planning. #BooksRLife 9mo
Graywacke @AllDebooks anti-bookers 🙂 9mo
Graywacke Looks like a gorgeous reading spot. I‘m listening to my first Edna O‘Brien book (The Little Red Chairs) 9mo
Cuilin @rubyslippersreads @Suet624 @AllDebooks @Graywacke I knew I would be in good company here on Litsy. 📚🫶 9mo
Cuilin @Graywacke Are you liking it? I‘m enjoying 9mo
Cuilin @BookmarkTavern @Daisey @dabbe @kspenmoll @Bookwormjillk @Cupcake12 It‘s lovely and cool there on a hot day and there was only a short sweet little hike to get to it!!! 9mo
Graywacke @Cuilin I‘m intrigued. Nothing like i expected. Although the language is quite lovely. And Juliet Stevenson is the worlds best audiobook reader 9mo
Graywacke @Cuilin that sounds negative. Not what i meant. i am liking it a lot. I‘m really happy to be listening to it. It‘s quite curious and interesting. 9mo
Cuilin @Graywacke I‘m finding her style “intriguing” too. I thought I had read Country Girls by her but now I‘m not so sure I don‘t think teenage me would have enjoyed it. 9mo

New job is kicking my butt (in a good way) so this collection of short, taut stories is perfect. Danish but definitely not hygge.

Dorthe Nors can WRITE. All these stories were particularly short, but contained so much.
