April‘s #DoubleSpin is clear—and is also my #44 pick for #50x50. For my #BookSpin, I get to pick a book published in the 1950s—70s for #192025. Above are the three I‘m thinking about… any recommendations?

Suet624 Yay for Anam Cara. I‘ve only read A Separate Peace (as a teenager) out of the three and I liked it. (edited) 2d
TheBookHippie I like them all 👀🤫🙃 2d
BarbaraJean @Suet624 I'm really looking forward to Anam Cara. It's been on my list for so long and it's nice to have the “assignment“ to read it! @TheBookHippie Good news is I'll be reading them all at some point before the end of the year!! 2d

TheAromaofBooks Oh Black Sheep is one of my favorite Heyer romances!! 1d
BarbaraJean @TheAromaofBooks Oh, that‘s good to know! I‘ve been leaning toward Black Sheep anyway because I‘m pretty sure that will be a nice escapist read—the other two, not so much 😆 24h

Cashelmara | Susan Howatch

Pickpick

60-year-old Englishman Edward DeSalis marries 18-yo Marguerite, an American girl he meets during a trip to the states just prior to the civil war. He owns several homes but the one she likes the least is Cashelmara, a great estate in Ireland. The story begins with Edward then Marguerite and continues to be told by their descendants and their significant others. This is an epic story (700+ pages) of the DeSalis family that suffers some tragic ⬇️

Texreader acts, including murders of both good and evil characters. At the same time the early English generation treats the Irish in much the way one would expect—as lesser people, mere peasants—although that viewpoint changes significantly over time. There‘s also some Scottish characters and how they are seen by the English and the Irish is very interesting. This is quite the saga. Very long but certainly kept my interest throughout. #foodandlit #Ireland 3d
