pickWow, that packed a punch! I flew through this beautiful epistolary novel, with tears in my eyes for the last 20 pages. I have a lot to say about the book but I think it would be better for you to go into it without a lot of preconceived notions. It‘s not a long book but it‘s one that will stick with me. 💗💗
Beautiful day for taking Cosmo out for a walk or two while listening to the tagged audiobook (it‘s really well done with multiple narrators)🐶🐾🍁🍂 #BeautyBreak

pickLoved this one. Sybil Von Antwerp communicates through letters: to her family and friends, a troubled young man, a professor, and several authors.
