The challenge would be great if people were encouraged to share why each book stuck with them 🙂

Just updated the feed so hopefully fixed!

I thought your post was saying she had five books, but I only know of three (A Little Life and those two).
Was excited to learn there might be more! 😅

Missed out on being in this pack, but I review books too! 🙋♂️
Admittedly mainly on YouTube. But keen to meet others in this brave new world.

(That said I bet there would be some excellent finds for me in Westbury charity shops.)
