I took the #threelistthursday quiz. It‘s all books from PBS‘s Great American Read list but the books are numbered from 100-1. My score is 24 of 100 - 24% but that‘s not right because I‘ve only read 23 books on this list. I don‘t know how I got 24. This is the 23 books I‘ve read from this list and my thoughts about them.
This is heavy reading but it's well-written and timely.
pickIt took me a while to get into this one, and I eventually needed to enlist the aid of the audiobook, which was helpful in getting a sense for the Welsh pronunciations anyway, but in the end, I quite enjoyed this novel. It's definitely dated, written in 1976 with gender roles to match, but the mythology and the emotional truth of the relationships makes up for some of my grouchy feelings about the importance of learning homemaking for a teen girl.
Holidays are here and it's time for a crime spree in St Andrews...
Only 38. I took 18th and 19th century Russian lit in college, so I did have those long ones! I might have read more, but can‘t really remember. 🤔

pickThis was so melodramatic and normally I am here for that but idk. Out of the two POVs I would say Kaede's was more interesting than Takeo's. She goes from having no agency at all to discovering her inner strength.
