#12Booksof2024 JULY A beautiful rugged book, set on an Island off of Scotland. I loved everything about this book.
My June #12Booksof2024 pick was our first book for #CampLitsy24 & a clear (pun intended) favorite. Very atmospheric & absorbing.
Honorable Mentions include: Run Towards the Danger, Doppelgänger & A Scatter of Light.
My choice for June is Clear. Beautiful writing, in depth characterization, imaginative, at its root a historical fact. 💛#12booksof2024
My favourite read of June. This one is quite an odd book, that appears to be centred around the Highland clearances of the 18th/19th century, but also looks at relationships and loneliness. It packs a lot in to a short novel.

This wasn‘t my favourite at the time, but looking back it was certainly the most memorable. Beautiful writing and so atmospheric!
pickI really appreciate Cary‘s Davies‘ writing. This novel set at the end of the Scottish Clearances on a remote and forbidding island is a marvel of history, language, and love. Full review at http://booknaround.blogspot.com/2024/07/review-clear-by-carys-davies.html
