Read: Hamnet by Maggie O’Farrell ★★★★★ 📚 I enjoyed everything about this, the detail of life at the time and the natural world and the sadness. The idea of Shakespeare as almost a secondary character is solid.

Olive Again by Elizabeth Strout
Read Olive Again by Elizabeth Strout ★★★★★, maybe not quite as great as Olive Kitteridge but still… got better and better as it went on and the last paragraph… 📚
Olive Kitteridge
Read: Olive Kitteridge by Elizabeth Strout ★★★★★ As good as I expected. I was completely absorbed by stories. Probably the last book I’ll finish this year and possible the best.
Read: The Book of Night Women by Marlon James ★★★★★ this is a hard book to put down but hard to read the iniquity and violence.
Midwinter Break by Bernard MacLaverty, beautiful book. Don’t think there was anything I did not like about this. 📚
