Book 1/100
📚📚📚📚📚 I understand why this split the #pulitzerprize for 2023. It is an unconventional story structure focusing on a Wall Street tycoon in the year leading up to the 1929 crash and shortly after. Written in 4 parts with 4 different POV‘s sharing the story of this person. The first part did get slow about 1/2 through but the rest goes quickly and creates an entire picture of the character.

Megabooks This was great and totally unique! Love your review! 3mo
lynneamch Seeing it on Pres Obama's list makes it a must-read for me. Appreciate your endorsement. 3mo

The Night Watchman | Louise Erdrich

Amazing! I‘ve read a lot of Erdrich; this may be my favorite. The stories that she weaves together, the depth of her characters, and the love and care she takes with every word and sentence makes her one of her generation‘s best. While not everyone loves her narrative style, I felt it was effective for this #audiobook. I understand why this is a #PulitzerPrize winning novel. #BookspinBingo #Pantone2023 @TheAromaofBooks #AAM @Soubhiville @Clwojick

Trying to get a jump start on my 2023 reading goals now that I‘ll be stuck at home on COVID quarantine again to start this year. 🤒 Third times a charm.

Less: A Novel | Andrew Sean Greer

I met one more #JubilantJuly goal today by reading this book.
I loved this adventurous story of Arthur Less, a gay middle-aged man who goes on a trip around the world to have an excuse to miss his ex‘s wedding.
The shifting pov and time frames were a challenge for me, but I still enjoyed riding along on Less‘s journey. It also won a #PulitzerPrize. Bonus points for #OwnVoices . Read if you like love stories.

FINALLY finished this one after reading it for 3.5 months. It was so good and well researched, just heavy and emotionally difficult to read in some places. It is well worth any reader's time.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I was honored to be able to read this. Hamby gives such value and justice to these devastating accounts of hard working miners who were affected by Black Lung Disease.

Oh my heavens! What a read. This will be my #1 Christmas gift to friends and family. The Lorax message all grown up. Nine characters all converge on the same wavelength: trees matter and we as humans are really in their space. #global #chestnuts #pulitzerprize #understory

lynneamch Well said. Totally agree! 3y
Leftcoastzen I thought it was amazing! 3y
SamAnne One of the best books I've read in 10 years and one I will reread. 3y
Peaceful_Reader @SamAnne : I found a used copy to keep after I returned my library copy. 3y

His Family | Ernest Poole

First ever #PulitzerPrize for the Novel winner back in 1918. It‘s a rather touching family drama about a widower and his three adult daughters. One is dedicated to domestic life and motherhood, one is a teacher and social reformer, and one is a socialite who just wants to enjoy life. Through these three women‘s lives Poole explores what it meant to be a woman in turn of the century New York. An enjoyable read overall. #litsyclassics
