This week's reading. The Change was amazing! Absolutely loved it. If We Were Villains - well-written, the characters, particularly in the first half, were pretentious little snots. It was almost a DNF for me, but I'm glad I stuck with it. The second half improved, until the ending #booksky

This week's reading (still reading Everything Was Beautiful and Nothing Hurt - and engrossed in it). I thoroughly enjoyed The Language of Liars - I wasn't sure what to expect with that book. #booksky

I bought this book when I was in Scotland. My great-grandparents, with my grandmother and her siblings, lived in Kilmarnock before coming to the US. They left about 5 years before the timeline in this book, and I'm loving this glimpse into the author's family life ❤️ 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 #booksky

It actually doesn't take much to be considered a difficult woman. That's why there are so many of us.

We owe our existence to

And the fact it rains

The war will end. The leaders will shake hands. The old woman will keep waiting for her martyred son. That girl will wait for her beloved husband. And those children will wait for their heroic father. I don't know who sold out homeland. But I saw who paid the price.
