This one is not my favorite of “Tookies short perfect novels” that I have read so far, but I do see why it‘s on the list. The end did quite literally take my breath away.

This book is a low pick for me. It's a somewhat random collection of thoughts on silence, some insightful and others that were less interesting. Either way, it has definitely made me appreciate silence more.
This might be a stretch, but I'm using this book for prompt 30, “Meowth: Treasure“ for #gottacatchemall, since the theme of the book is that silence is to be treasured, and we all know that “Silence is golden“! @PuddleJumper
Weekend reading is to make progress on working my way through the character Tookie‘s “short perfect novels” list in Erdrich‘s The Sentence. This will be #8 of 12.
Found this back in November (HomeGoods find), and saved to read on Christmas Eve.
Too sweet. Like a picture-book for grown-ups.
A solo travel book and a discussion of the benefits of alone time.
“It was good to see you,” he says. - This line, although it doesn‘t seem too emotional when you read it alone, brought tears to my eyes. By the time you get to this quote near the end of the book you‘ll understand why I teared up. It was an emotional, thought provoking journey from start to finish. Interesting read on a type of person you‘ll likely never meet in your lifetime; a real Hermit.
