I randomly picked this up at my library. So glad I did! I would recommend a collection like this to someone in a reading slump. There are so many different stories. You can read a few, then move on to something else and come back later.

This is the second of this collection that I have read. It was an awesome reading experience like the other one. Quoting Cheryl Strayed, when reading a great essay, “the reader should feel the ground shift” and most of these did not fail. I cannot get enough of reading essays these days. 🌟🌟🌟🌟

I was in the midst of reading an essay that I LOVE, which happens when I find a woman who surprisingly speaks my language. I said to myself, “Who is this? I hope she has written something else. I want to read all she has written.” It is Zadie Smith. Yay! I‘m in love. 😍🤓

scripturient Zadie Smith is awesome! I was lucky enough to meet her twice last year and I was so intimidated. 😂😊 6y

DrSabrinaMoldenReads Yes! @merelybookish Going to the library tomorrow 6y
scripturient @Joyfulmimi If you want to start on her novels, I suggest starting with either White Teeth or On Beauty. The latter is still my favourite. :) 6y
DrSabrinaMoldenReads Thanks! @scripturient @merelybookish Undoubtedly, you two speak my language, too 😘 6y
