pickMust-read book, well deserving of the year-end accolades. Matthew Desmond doesn't mince words in the epilogue.

Incredibly powerful book of poetry. Highly, highly recommend.

pickHeartbreaking, necessary book.

More from the book sale. Split a set of 7 Barbara Pym books with my friend - we didn't think they should be separated!

Happy day! 🐈

pickThis is a brutal, brilliant book from last year's Nobel winner.

Really cool, really peculiar book. Beautiful.

What could possibly be better than going to work? 🙄😽 #catsoflitsy

A delight from start to finish. I've become a big fan of Zambra's. Also, good mug choice on the part of the coffeeshop...🌧

 pick
pickBrilliantly ambitious and, for the most part, beautifully written and executed. My only quibble is the structure: chapters alternate regularly between the two branches of the family, each following a new family member. While a few characters reappear or are referenced, the stories feel so separated that some seem underdeveloped, more like short stories in their own right. Maybe, selfishly, I just wanted to know more. A wonderful book. #bestof2016

pickSome of my favorite finds from this year! As beautiful on the inside as out. #vintageclassics #birdsandbees

Quite a mix of books I've picked up this week. 'Mrs. Caliban' is oddly delightful - I've never read anything quite like it. Clever and imaginative, but surprisingly dark and affecting.
