Hmmmmm 🧐 I wonder if Belle would have swapped offices with me? This is only 1 room of a three room suite comprising the librarian‘s office at the Morgan library. #Europacollective

Starting early because it‘s a big one. The prelude is devastating. 😔
I appreciate Lapierre is not sugar coating the story or the historically accurate attitudes & language. #Europacollective
The December book is tagged for the #europacollective hosted by @Jlhammar

pickThe sequel to The Road to Dalton, (#EuropaCollective)this one is a continuation of the beloved characters we get to know in the first book. Set in small town Maine, the characters all know one another and often cross paths. Relationships strengthen, or form, after the events in the first book (which should be read before reading this one). I‘m not convinced a follow up was necessary but I‘m not mad I got to spend more time in this quaint village.
Re-reading this profound book for #LitsyBookClub
I listened to it earlier in the year for #EuropaCollective
This is a book that‘s going to stay with me a long time.
Anne Berest and her sister have a new book, Gabriële, about their great grandmother, coming out next year and I‘m going to put a high on my TBR
pickThis was the #EuropaCollective pick for September, which I've finally read. I ended up liking it, but I can understand why not everyone did. Jessica isn't terribly likeable at the beginning and the plot doesn't seem to go anywhere. But, it started working for me around the time of the house party. Jessica changes and matures. This won't be a favorite, but I enjoyed it. (The book for December has been shipped, so maybe I'll read that one on time!)
