My Favourite Books of 2020

this is excellent my audio and i definitely want to get this in a physical copy so i can read it and tab because there's so much brilliant information

i thought this was beautiful the exploration of the relationship between these women you know her daughter the mother and a grandmother is wonderful and i loved it

it's beautifully written just as a historical fiction book in and of itself it's wonderful and but i just also love the commentary this has on women and marriage and families and grief

i love this and i feel like i can safely say i've never read another book like it i can't compare her voice to anyone else's because it feels entirely her own

i read this towards the end of the year and i absolutely loved it i got so much joy out of it

this is beautiful this is such a powerful and wonderful collection

i don't know how anybody could read this book and not put it in their top books of the year it is just a masterclass in writing it's absolutely phenomenal

i love this book like every single character even like a tiny side character was brilliantly described and there's moments of such grief and tenderness and also moments of such happiness so i adored this and i'd highly recommend it

this is phenomenal this does something i adore in non-fiction and that is when a writer has elements of memoirs they take you through their life but they use the structure of their life to explore a subject

this is absolutely beautiful i highly recommend on audio

it's phenomenal none of her other books have been published in the uk but i'm gonna just have to get hold of them from the us because i think she's one of my favorite authors

this is one of those books i look at and think this is the perfect example of a novel and what it can achieve and it's one of those books that sort of makes lots of other novels pale in comparison

this is beautiful the writing style is really crisp every word feels perfectly placed and yeah i'd highly recommend this

this is a beautiful book and i think the only reason i'm not putting this higher on the list is just because i think with some distance the ending isn't particularly strong

i loved this essay collection i gave it four stars because ultimately 15 different writers you know you're not going to love all the writing styles

i don't think it's her best novel in fact i think both her other novels are better than this but i still really enjoyed it
