pickWhat a magnificent book! I liked it better than #Hamnet. The cover is gorgeous, and I really liked our main character. The writing drew me right in, and delighted me until the inevitable ending.

pickOn this glorious Saturday, I grabbed Hamnet and found an isolated bank in a park, far away from the crowds. Hamnet is a great book about Shakespeare‘s family, although his name is never mentioned. It feels sort of appropriate to read this, because of the pandemic in our times. #Hamnet is beautifully written, emotional and the cover is simply stunning.

The shortlist for the #WomensPrize has been announced. What do you think? I have already read A Thousand Ships & Girl, Woman, Other and I will probably start reading Hamnet tomorrow. The other three are on my list!

This book waited for months on my TBR list. The sun finally came back these last days, and I decided it is appropriate to finally read this. Lovely story and well-written, but I feel something special was missing to make this book truly memorable.
I finished it in about 3 hours while sunbathing in jacket, blanket and jeans (it‘s not THAT hot).
