Here are 18 for my #19of2019. I didn't have room for Heather Havrilesky's What If This Were Enough.
I like this list. I like that it represents my various reading moods: children's lit, contemporary fiction,.classics, essays, memoir,.and other nonfiction. Thanks for asking @BarbaraBB and @Centique Always fun to make a list! 😁
Centique Oh I‘m so excited to see The Once and Future King there because I have that coming up in a couple of weeks 😍 I‘m so glad to see Nevermoor too. I‘ve really loved reading that to my son - I think I might try listening to it on audio this year. 4y
merelybookish @Centique Once and Future King is an experience. Some parts are weak but others soar. Im so glad I read it and I look forward to hearing what you think! And I love the Nevermoor series! I think Book 3 comes out soon! 4y
Cinfhen Love seeing your list 😍 4y

Cathythoughts I‘m taking a screenshot! I meant to include Cassandra in mine too but I couldn‘t get the graphics together. Great picks you have chosen ❤️👍🏻 4y
LeahBergen Cassandra at the Wedding and Shirley made my list, too. 👍🏻 4y
BarbaraBB Margot thank you so much for the card and bookmark, that arrived today! I hope you had a wonderful time in Canada and I know what you mean with my eldest 18 years old as well... things will be changing! Also, I feel the same about our #nyrbbookclub ❤️😘 (edited) 4y
merelybookish @BarbaraBB I'm glad it arrived Barbara! And yes, weird to have an "adult" child although 18 doesn't seem very old. ? 4y
BarbaraBB It‘s so young for being an adult but so old being my baby 😀. Happily he‘s still living at home (he‘s at uni in Amsterdam and student housing is scarce and expensive)! 4y
Suet624 Loved seeing your favorites. 4y
merelybookish @BarbaraBB I'm discouraging my son from University right now. He is not ready. But he might live with us forever. 4y
merelybookish @Suet624 Thanks Sue! 4y
BarbaraBB @merelybookish what will he be doing this year? Mine took a gap-year after high school last year and travelled through Colombia for six months. He came back an adult, learned so much. I am happy he is home and still living with us. 4y
merelybookish @BarbaraBB I'm not sure what he will do. I'd like him to get a job, get his driver's license, that sort of thing. He's a pretty young 18. I'd love if he wanted to travel but that doesn't seem like his thing. He likes to act so I've also suggested he get involved with a local theatre or take an improv class. We'll see. I have faith he'll figure it out, but also figure it will take him a while. 4y
BarbaraBB Of course he will. They are still so young. I didn‘t know what to do with my life until after university 😂 4y
