An astonishing book that had me in its spell. It's rare to go wrong with a Catherine Ryan Hyde book and this doesn't disappoint. I love stories that place friendship on a pedestal, and I don't mean that in a bad way. You don't get bored. In fact, you ...more |

Sigh, Gone: A Misfit's Memoir of Great Books, Punk Rock, and the Fight to Fit In
by Phuc Tran (Goodreads Author) |
|
| Writing a memoir isn't easy. Not that I have tried writing one, but you know how it is. Phuc Tran has done something rare here. Written a memoir that is also a page-turner. You can't help but feel for him - the memoir stops at his entry to college, a ...more | |

Such a sweet, sweet book. Hard to dislike anything here. I only wish I had a paperback instead of finding this on Kindle Unlimited! A keeper! |

Such a weird book. I don't know why I kept reading but it got even more bizarre and I felt I had to reward myself for reading bizarre. I understand the pathos of a mother losing a child. But...the grief was more incendiary than the actual bomb and the ...more |

I confess I didn't understand large parts of this book. Having lived in China, I made the assumption of thinking that Mainland referred to China and got off to a bad start with that ignorance. Although the food descriptions were fantastic, I was at a ...more |

This is not a "magnificent sequel" to Wild Swans. It's tepid and more like a Tame Duck. (Sorry ducks!) Instead of a memoir, the book veers into "this is how I wrote my next book!" Very little is revealed as a memoir that hasn't already been told in Wi ...more |

| It would be hard to dislike this gentle book. A meditation on death. On friendship and forgiveness. I cried a bit toward the end because I couldn't imagine anyone taking away my Khushi Bun from me and also for that great unknown we all fantasize abou ...more | |

All This Light: Poems | Poetry for Heartbreak, Healing and Self-Love
by Ashish Bagrecha (Goodreads Author) |
|
|
Would it be fair to call this poet the male Nikita Gill? Because the style of writing reminded of the popular Insta variety of poems. These are easy to read. And they make poetry accessible. |

| A sweet novel that still packs these old-world values of compassion and kindness. Some of the pop culture references went over my head but I didn't care. Friendship and books.I can't go wrong with those. ...more | |

“It has long been known to me that certain objects want you as much as you want them. These are the ones that become important, the objects that you hold dear. The others fade from your life entirely. You wanted them, but they did not want you in return.”
