Sometimes I think ...I love No Fond Return of Love! Sometimes I think it's my favorite Pym novel, but then I change my mind for one of her others.

Lost Wake. <br /><br />Fiction, too many choices. Beatlebone by Kevin Barry stands out recently ...also A Manual for Cleaning Women, by Lucia Berlin, I am partway through. Short stories, vivid and real.<br /><br />I have a huge stack of unread gems. <br /><br />Cookbooks: The Food Lab,The Scandi Kitchen, Zahav. <br /><br />It's exquisite torture to work in a book store. So many books, so little time is the truth. smalltownmehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10857871195417461235noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1805554874942481868.post-45987027687130500732015-12-31T17:12:37.558-05:002015-12-31T17:12:37.558-05:00YES to The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry!

I'd add a few others as well: <br />All the Light We Cannot See<br />The Ship of Brides, by JoJo Moyes<br /><br />...and right now there are more but my brain isn't firing on all cylinders. I haven't even managed to keep my list up on Goodreads, although I've been trying. Off to read your big list, too.
