This is the only month of the year that didn‘t feature one of my #Top21in2021 so took a bit more thought!
Its about 2 women, and their lifetime of friendship with all it‘s ups and downs, and the man they both marry (at separate times.)The writing is beautiful, and the characters so nuanced, as their lives ebb and flow. I love a novel that seems simple, just a study of three people as they age, but digs so deep. Emotionally complex and engrossing.

Waiting until the last minute to post just in case I finished a masterpiece today, lol.
My #top21in21 books feel more eclectic than past years - and this is the first time an author has been featured twice in my end of year list.
Becky Chambers wins the year - I read all of her available books and two made my list with 5 stars 🤩
I‘m pleased with the number of nonfiction titles, but am still resolved to read more in the new year!
