Here we are in October and summer suddenly feels like a distant, warm and fuzzy memory, but with one last blast of sunshine due this weekend, I thought I’d tell you about a few of the books I read this summer.
These are incredible recommendations! de Beauvoir, Duras, Ernaux—oh! I look forward to hearing more about Annie Ernaux, as I've started listening to The Years on audible, although I would like also to get a hard copy from you soon. I have also been enjoying Hagitude on audio, as well as reading The Danish Girl by David Ebershoff, which I think is ravishing.

I really enjoyed Yellowface and haven’t been able to find a book to engage me well since then. I read Honeybees and Distant Thunder over the summer which I really enjoyed too https://thiswabisabilife.substack.com/p/honeybees-and-distant-thunder
sounds very intriguing from your review – absolutely love that cover image you've illustrated it with too. Thank you for sharing
