Pickpick

Giving this a pick because it's poetry and I appreciate the effort. But this didn't exactly speak to me.

vlwelser @Riveted_Reader_Melissa this author wrote an essay in Part 4 of that book I was supposed to read for #SheSaid but never actually read. 1y

Guess where I've been today 😀

Three books I had never before heard of and another Maggie Nelson poetry book 💕

May also have picked up a few bits and bobs from Monsoon. (Got to look all floaty and summery while reading my new books in the sunshine, right?)

TrishB Look great 👍🏻 2y
batsy I loved the tagged book. Devastating but good. 2y
RaeLovesToRead @TrishB I'm very pleased with my haul! 😁 2y
RaeLovesToRead @batsy The cover drew me in and then when I read the blurb I knew I wanted to read it. I'm doing #readaroundtheworld (over the next decade or so!) and I don't know much about Sri Lanka so I'm hoping I will learn something too 💙 2y

As an Xmas-aholic, Dec was busy. But the crazy hours meant I could savour this☝🏽book. Muller‘s part 2 in his #Burgher #trilogy is hilarious! The stories from his community are warm, incredible, some uncomfortable, but mostly they make you chortle. So I was glad to eke out the merriment all the way to my new year‘s trip on a farm where I startled kids, adults and curious Turkeys by guffawing uncontrollably many a time. #SriLankan #RailwayMen #LOL
