View all videosNow, it was Nicole from not noteworthy fiction that put me on to this one and I'm so glad that she did and absolutely loved it.
And he put this one out in 2025, and it is excellent.
It's fantastic. You know if you don't know that much about the life of a ballerina this is a good book to read. You can learn a lot about it.
The book is written so well. the time jumping back and forth. It's done very smoothly and you read it quickly because you just want to know what's going to happen next.
This book is so good. It has suspense. it has like a character development that is off the chain and yeah you I mean if you read it with someone, you're going to just you're going to, you know, want to talk about it all the time.
And the thing that is so good about this book is that it is written with a lot of sincerity, a lot of emotion, and it's very poignant and it he really does go into a lot of different avenues that are quite unexpected. It's really, really good. I highly recommend it.
So, the first book that I gave a five star to last year was this one right here, 54 Miles.
So, this one I read this one with my Normandy book club and I absolutely loved everything about this book.
It is brilliant. I mean, brilliant. Octavia Butler had her pul finger on the pulse of what we were to be in the future.
This one I also read with my Normandy book club and it was surprisingly good.
So, as you know, this is a retelling of Huckleberry Finn, and it focuses on James, which is the gym character back in the Huckleberry Finn novel.
Just get the book, people, and read it. It's excellent. It's excellent.
cutting for stone was excellent as well told about another part of the world I think it was in it's in Ethiopia that it set he's just a great writer just read the book read the book
lonard pittz Jr he breaks it down in this one now I can't talk enough about this book because I love it so much
baldwi killed it in this one I mean if you have not read baldwi this would not be a bad place to start the dialogue is fantastic there's so much going on in the book
so yeah it's almost 1,400 and something pages to read it's well worthwhile
this one is on my list because it was a book that stunned me but not only that it I learned some things that I didn't know
forget about my darkest prayer and just not worth it forget about it
second place would be black top Wasteland
this is a really good book okay her way of developing her characters is very ingenious it just seems like it flows off the page with no effort
it's easy to get swept up into this novel and caring about these characters these are full on Full Life filled up characters they're just Unforgettable
the writing is on point very easy to read it flows brilliantly it's not at all hard to sit down and read 100 Pages just that good
in this book she explores her five generations of family through cooking and memory and that's why this book is I would say it's more like a memoir that has recipes included within the story
