The Love Songs of W.E.B. Du Bois | Honor�e Fanonne Jeffers

Ploughing my way through a pile of work (that I am grateful to have - let‘s be clear!) so I can get started reading this one without feeling distracted by the voice that says “ You know you have a deadline to meet, right?” #guiltfreereading #chunkers #bigfatbooks #honoréefanonnejeffers

SamAnne I‘m looking forward to this one. 3y

EvieBee I didn‘t realize what a chunky book this was! How many pages? 3y

Thanks for the tag @Eggs !

1. I‘m killing my goal, I‘m at 135 books read of 150. So, 90%. I‘ve done a lot of self care by reading this year!
2. I‘m going to read some of the #Chunkers on my shelf and up my goal to 200.

Poems 1962-2012 | Louise Gluck

I reserved this copy from the library not realizing it was going to be a chunker, and that other people like me were wanting to better acquaint themselves with this awardee of the Nobel Prize in Literature 2020. Nevertheless, before returning this to the library today, I copied out six poems that I would enjoy re-reading, anytime. #LouiseGlück #chunkster #bigfatbooks #nobelprizeinliterature #poetry #chunkers #ilovelibraries #LouiseGluck

A People's History of the World: From the Stone Age to the New Millennium | Chris Harman

I know I'm not supposed to be thinking about buying more books - I've been hauling all year - but this looks like one I'm going to have to get at some point....#chunkers #history #peopleshistory #bigfatbooks

batsy That looks pretty great! 7y

Lesliereads @batsy indeed it does! I'd never seen it before and this one is the 2017 edition but apparently it was first published in 2008? 7y

Dance with Dragons: A Song of Ice and Fire: Book Five | George R R Martin

#JuneTunz #day15 #RuleTheWorld Every House in this series wants to Rule The World! The Lannisters want to buy it, the Baratheons want to convert it, the Targaryens want to burn it all down & the Martells just want revenge. And they all want to rule. Except the Starks. They just want Winterfell & to be left alone.

Cinfhen Excellent choice as always 🙌🏻and they are #chunkers 7y

Kalalalatja @Marla does the audio narrator have an accent 😳 7y

The Poetry of Derek Walcott 1948-2013 | Derek Walcott

606 pages of Derek Walcott's (1930 - 2017) poetry to absorb, drink in, savor, appreciate. #poetryeveryday #derekwalcott #poetry #Litsypoetry365 #booksandwine #chunkers #bigfatbooks #stlucianpoetandplaywright

batsy Amazing. It'll be wonderful to have a copy of that. A lifetime's work ❤️ 7y

Lesliereads @batsy Yes, so much of his life's work represented in this volume with the exception of Omeros. 7y

BellaBookNook I just discovered him after he passed and am eager to get my hands on one of his collections. 7y

Lesliereads @BellaBookNook Oh! I think you can start anywhere with Walcott's work. This collection was just sitting at Powell's bookstore waiting for me and a ten dollar bill😊. 7y
