How to Build a Boat | Elaine Feeney
post image
Pickpick

This was a very tender story of family and community that didn‘t veer too far into the overly mawkish and sentimental as I feared it would. Feeney‘s background as a poet is very apparent in certain bits as some of the language was really breathtaking. Funnily enough, my least favorite bits were the ones in which they actually built the boat. 😂

TrishB I‘m not overly keen on boats in books! 13mo
squirrelbrain I agree - I found the boat bits a little boring, but otherwise really liked it. 13mo
MicheleinPhilly @TrishB Other than the boat bits, I did like it a lot. 13mo
TrishB @MicheleinPhilly @squirrelbrain I just went to look on kindle to see how much it is…..yes, I brought it on 24 August. Well then. 13mo
MicheleinPhilly @TrishB 🤣🤣🤣 That‘s probably when I bought it. #99pQueens 👑 13mo
