⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
so-soThis started out so well but I lost interest halfway and found myself switching off. Possibly better to read in print. I think I would have preferred it if there weren‘t as many character points of view, too. I was left with similar feelings as when I listened to I Want To Go Home But I‘m Already There…just couldn‘t connect to the characters and not very memorable. #10beforetheend
pickGood Material, by Dolly Alderton (2023) [RE-READ]
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Premise: A thirty-something failing comedian spirals in the aftermath of a break-up he didn‘t see coming.
Review: I loved this as much on seven read as first. The main male character is a bit of a man-child, but the book never suggests anything else. And, it‘s refreshing to see the flip side of the ‘cast off the unsatisfying relationship to live the life you‘re meant to live!‘ motif.⬇️
Thank you @alexus_sb for the lovely #jolabokaflod package! This book has been a long-timer on my tbr, so I'm excited to dive in! Thank you @MaleficentBookDragon for another year of this Christmas Eve tradition 🎄
Just started The 5 Love Languages—curious to see what my love language really is! Anyone else read this?
pickOk, so halfway through, I thought this was going to be a ‘meh‘ book, and that maybe Lily King‘s a little overrated (this is my first time reading her). But then, I‘m reading the ending, and I‘m blown away by it. I get all the hype now.
pickA book about love, friendship, and the relationships that mark us for life. King writes so evocatively about the intoxication of first love and how huge and impossible life choices loom when one is young. And then how the consequences of those choices follow you into adulthood. An exquisite novel.
pickThis feels like a hard book to describe but it was very much my kind of read, as I knew it would be - one of my favourites of the year. #10beforetheend
pick“Justine reminded me what we risk every time we choose to love someone, not just that they may outlive us, or we them, but that they might break the heart we place in their hands. It‘s remarkable I think that many of us are willing to take that risk again and again.”
pickI snatched this from the library after reading all of the praise from other Littens. And well, I loved it. I wished for more. Makes me regret giving my copy of W&L away (wasn‘t in the right headspace for it at the time, might have to revisit). I got Tomorrow x3 vibes a little - except swap video games for books 😂
