2023 has been a fabulous book year so far! Below are my ABSOLUTE favorites for the year so far. So varied and diverse just like my music taste. Read, read, read!! If you don't like these, it doesn't matter. Just get out there and READ!!
I read this as an audiobook and it was so, so powerful. I somehow missed this incredible book as it was a bestseller and normally I don't like them!! Weird, I know!
What is there NOT to like about an Isabel Allende book? And her feminist journey. Unfortunately, this book came out right before COVID hit! So good!
This was a twisty and fun book - the premise is wild and there is a BIG payoff! Set in Australia and is so fun!!
One of my favorite authors, Amulya Malladi, is now writing MYSTERIES!! The storyline, location (mainly Copenhagen), and main character are AMAZING!!
I promised myself no more WWII books, but this just sounded so good! It was SO well-written with amazing characters, stories, and historical information. Yes, PLEASE!!
I have read all of his books and love his writing. This was one of those books that keep you thinking LONG after reading. Dystopian!!
My first book of the year and the one to beat!! Bono narrates this one, sings, and tells deeply personal stories. U2 must listen/read!
Another audiobook that was fabulous. I don't knit, but it was a great metaphor for so much. I have read most of Peggy Orenstein's books - AMAZING!! This was another stellar book!!
Happy reading,
Dorotheaπ
