I look forward to reviews of some of the books you’ve mentioned. Happy reading & a lovely week to you.

Backman knows how to use words to the best effect. He’s going to be in Seattle later this month- are you going to see him?

Your slump is contagious. I’m on my 3rd book, having set aside two, not because they were awful, but because they just weren’t holding my interest. I need Tin Man level prose right now!

Isn’t it frustrating when the library takes days to get a new book on the shelves? I’ll look forward to hearing how you like both The Great Believers and Us Against You.

He truly is a gifted writer.

I’ll have to check out The Book Borrower. The Great Believers was my first Makkai book.

Strictly speaking you don’t have to read Beartown before Us Against You, but I still would. Have a great week, Kathryn.

I’m at 70% and still love it.

Since Dreams of Falling didn’t work for me, I’ll be interested to hear your thoughts on it.

Thanks, Kathy. You have a great week, too.
