I just think it's beautifully written the way he writes about love and life and what it means to be in love what it means to love your family there's something so special about this book
The Over 30 BOOK TAG!
I have chosen a girl from another by Bernardin every so because this is a collection of 12 different voices and many of the women featured in this book are way over 30 and there's lots of middle aged and older women and also lots of women looking back on their youth from a different standpoint which I really appreciate and I really like an older woman's voice in fiction and I mean it's just a fantastic book
girls will be girls is a prime example of a book that I've read recently that I've loved a lot
this collection is fantastic though and it is about that transition from childhood to adulthood
something about the way she writes about teenage golden I just really love a lot of these stories focus on the notion of growing up a lot of them take place in Belfast where Lucy Caldwell is from and she just really captures that kind of nihilism of teenage girls
I really recognize these groups of people and really recognize the way they are communicating and interacting with each other and like the different class systems in university the idea of trying to go to university and reinvent yourself really or even inventing yourself in between like first year and second year or second during third year and I think there's something about being that age that is really captured so well in this book
I loved it is one of those rare collections where I loved every single story in there even though they are so different
the Joy Luck Club and the remains of the day both of which I've read and really enjoyed both of those
