A reread of a classic by one of my favourite authors. Our book club at work is reading the Deptford trilogy together over the year.

I had the great fortune to attend one of Robertson Davies's readings many years ago, before he passed away.

For the last several years, I‘ve started the new year with this book. It is such a celebration of friendship, filled with humor and just a bit of real life situations (rationing, for example). And, inevitably, I‘m always crying by the end. A wonderful book that shows books can connect people, even across oceans. So much like Litsy!! #192025 #1970

Late November, several of the moomin family‘s friends, Snirfkin, the Hemulen and Fillyfjonk, decide to visit them. Only finding the moomin family not at home, but their friends decide to stay.

This is an old library copy with the old library card for borrowing in the back. It was first borrowed in 1972.

2nd book for #WinterReadaton and #Adventathon

A weekend in the lives of Otto Bentwood, a successful lawyer and his sophisticated wife Sophie. They own both a brownstone in Brooklyn and a small country home on Long Island. They are struggling with direction in their lives. Although it was written in #1970, it feels very current. The writing is exquisite. At times,I wanted to jot down certain sentences whose beauty left me in awe. A slim book. Tense. Serious. Atmospheric. #192025

I‘ve heard so many good things about this book. I‘m reading it now as part of a shared read on the #TIOLI challenges for #LibraryThing.

Friday night reading with my companions cat nephew Dac, and dog niece Shandy as we remember the life of #ToniMorrison.

This is a sweet, sad, romantic story. Not a lot to it, but well written with charming characters and the author does a great job with the narration. I was shocked to discover we used the same Whitman poem in our wedding vows without ever having read/seen it. #audiobook #BirthdayChallenge #1970

Next up on #audiobook in my #BirthdayChallenge: #1970. I don‘t agree with the famous quote pictured here, but it is one of those incredibly famous books I‘ve always meant to get to.
