A profusion of love! Sigh #prideandprejudice #seasonsreadings2016 #bestblurb
Well, after an admittedly cursory purusal of my physical books, I decided that the Washington Post wins #bestblurb #bestblurbs for their blurb on the back of Good Omens here. #seasonsreadings2016 #day6 @RealLifeReading
Woohoo, Books of 2016 review!
"In the Darkroom" is new to me and looks complicated and fascinating: "Faludi attempted to untangle the gordian knot of her father‘s identity, not just as a trans woman, but as a fashion photographer and retoucher, an abusive husband, a Hungarian, and a Jew who returned to the homeland where she had once lived as a hunted minority under the Nazi regime." What a description!

So this was surprisingly difficult to settle on but I went with funny. I read this while pregnant with my son and I feel like it helped prepare me better for the gory details that other books sugar coated. lts my #bestblurb for today's #seasonsreadings.

#bestblurb I probably won't read this despite the compelling endorsement from Gary Shteyngart. #seasonsreadings2016
I couldn't find a #bestblurb so here is my favourite note in a secondhand book. "Bria! This is a really funny book, you should read it. German humour, anti-religious, with depth, strong feministic ties and lots of pseudoerotic stories about nuns. Thought of you when I read it. Happy birthday, 30 is a good age, love Jan." I feel like I could be friends with Bria and Jan. #SeasonsReadings2016
#seasonsreadings2016 #bestblurb I loved this book and I love Lena Dunham (recently started listening to her podcast too--it's pretty good!)
"If Larry McMurtry had written Wind in the Willows, he might have come up with something almost as wonderful and moving as Howard Anderson's Albert of Adelaide. This is a novel that defies analysis and summaries. Trust me. Just read it."― Mary Doria Russell, New York Times bestselling author of The Sparrow and Doc #bestblurb #highlyrecommended

This was a hard one, but I ultimately went with one of French's novels. They're suspenseful, mysterious, and intriguing, all the while giving you only a hint of what is to come.
