Great summation--as always. At some point I will read Malibu Rising because hey, it's Malibu and my era. Those pop ups on the beach? So, so clever. The beach is where you take a book NO MATTER WHAT! I read To Kill a Mockingbird at Torrance Beach summer before starting 8th grade. Game changing. Continue the year fruitfully Shayne! xo Les
That is true - many people don't think of a type of book for the beach - just any book. You have such a great memory for things. Personally, I have a hard time reading in the sunlight - it hurts my eyes, so while I dream of reading at the beach, I am usually just staring at the water.
Your newsletter came just in time as I was looking for a new book! Read Between two kingdoms based on your earlier recommendation and really enjoyed it! Mysteries aren't my thing but I've read many of your other recommendations ... and look forward to your newsletter! This is the first year I've listen more than I've read!!
Love hearing your thoughts. I think listening to books becomes adictive....in a good way. If you liked Two Kingdoms, I think you will like Crying in H-Mart for sure!
Meant to add we really enjoyed, The hate U give; read it aloud with my youngest who is entering 8th and saw the movie afterwards. Wonder is my favorite YA novel, read first with G when he was still an MP3er and my kids had read the whole series.
Already started Longbourn (historical fiction is a fav genre) and ordered Crying H Mart! Thank you!!
