I love books about mediaeval life and nunneries so this was right up my alley. I listened to the audiobook (read by the wonderful Adjoa Andoh) and she does a stellar job. She creates so much atmosphere and brings each nun‘s voice alive. (Bit late for #authoramonth) #nunlit

Cloistered: My Years as a Nun | Catherine Coldstream

For #nunlit readers, I don‘t think the tagged book is one of our reads, but you might enjoy this. If you subscribe to Katherine May‘s (newsletter - that feels like the wrong word…), you can listen to this interview.

JamieArc @monalyisha I believe I saw that you read the tagged, but I‘m guessing you received this in your inbox too… 2w
monalyisha I am! I haven‘t read or listened yet, though. I‘m afraid of spoilers. 😅 I‘m not sure I‘m loving the book, tbh. But there‘s still quite a bit left for me to listen to, so jury is out. 2w
jlhammar Thanks for the interview! This book is on my list to check out. 2w

1839, Messina, Italy. Immersed in this world this morning.#nunlit #porchlife

jlhammar Enjoy! Just finished last night. Need to gather my thoughts for a review. 1mo
slategreyskies I probably shouldn‘t admit this, but at first glance, I thought that jar of shells was a frozen coffee. I was like, “Wow, that‘s a huge drink!” And then my eyes focused… haha 😂 1mo
kspenmoll @slategreyskies Well that is about what I drink in a day- a tanks worth! 😂 1mo

Finished this last night for #NunLit. Look forward to the discussion because I think I missed something big somehow. I really liked the first half or so and then it lagged a bit for me. 4 🌟

jlhammar I‘m only up to page 85. Enjoying Agata‘s love of reading. 1mo

“The tender morning sunshine sifted down through the skylight, filling the room below and highlighting the pink marble of the Baroque staircase.”

I am loving our April #NunLit book so far.

Suet624 I‘ve been trying to get The Nun for ages from Hoopla. I need to wake up at 2 am to grab it before the daily limit of the library is met. 2mo
Librarybelle Looks good! 2mo
kspenmoll @Suet624 Oh no! I finally ordered it from some seller on line- libraries did not have it. 2mo

Come and play everyone!
