Almost forgot, last book of 2020 - The Stationary Shop which was a delight even if it made me cry. First book finished in 2021 - Out Stealing Horses delightful if also poignant. @BookNAround #lastfirst

Crazeedi The stationary shop was really good 3y
Cuilin @Crazeedi so good, I read it in two days. My husband is reading it now. He likes it so far. 3y
Graywacke I loved Out Stealing Horses 3y

Alan Jacobs is a brilliant thinker and his nee book about Christian humanism in the shadow of WWII looks fascinating.

{#fiercelyfemalereads 🖤🌻}

Over halfway through Weil‘s The Iliad, or a Poem Of Force and ... wow! What an essay. It‘s interesting and profound and I have almost barrelled through in a single sitting. Has anyone else read this? I need to hear what you think.

In other news, myself, @ani_elizaveta and @wanderlustforwords will be reading The Second Sex for our first official pick. #simoneweil #booklover #bookaddict #bookblog #bookworm #bookish
