Hope everyone is having a relaxing Sunday evening. I‘m just reading and listening to some lofi 📖🎶
I have a lot of love for the McNally Editions series of overlooked books. This is a coming-of-age story of a young girl - Irene - growing up in a still-segregated town in 1950s Kansas. It is told in a series of chapters from various characters point of view, which gives depth to the story (and is one of my favourite narrative devices). Neither cloying nor strident, this book struck the perfect balance. Excellent.
Short stories are usually not my thing. But this was pretty good!

1. 50 + I read at bedtime so it depends how engaging the book is and how awake I am. I listen to audio books for hours when I am walking, driving or working around the house.
2. All Fours
3. East of Eden is a favorite
