Finished reading: Thistlefoot by GennaRose Nethercott 📚what a treat! Fun, deep, meaningful, imaginative and yet also a retelling of old tales. Highly recommended.
Finished reading: The Grand Tour by Patricia C. Wrede 📚A very silly book but perfect bedtime reading. No suspense and thus conducive to falling asleep.

Finished reading: The Whalebone Theatre by Joanna Quinn 📚Overall a satisfying novel set in England and France during WWII, though heavy-handed in places.

Quit reading: Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver 📚it’s just too brutal. I know all the abuse and drug addiction is real but I couldn’t keep reading it. So I will simply admire this novel from afar.

Finished reading: Chants Democratic by Sean Wilentz 📚Excellent American labor history 1780-1850 book. But depressing because we’ve been fighting financial inequality with the same language for 200 years.

Finished reading: Lark Ascending by Silas House 📚Similar to Station Eleven but clumsier.
Finished reading: The Last Graduate by Naomi Novik 📚I found parts tedious and way too much plot was recapitulated from book 1 AND I enjoyed it. Looking forward to book 3.
Finished reading: Zorrie by Laird Hunt 📚A sweet midwestern novel.
Finished reading: The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner by James Hogg 📚I think what’s interesting is the perspective on religion in its time.
Finished reading: Ducks by Kate Beaton 📚a wonderful graphic novel. I used to visit Cape Breton and marveled at the stories of people working in Alberta. She tells the truth.
