      I totally don’t understand the attraction to Foster (and I know there is a large following!) It seems to start in the middle of a story, and just ends a short time later. No beginning and no (satisfying) ending. I can appreciate the writing and I like the characters, but there is only a piece of a story!

      I actually watched the movie adaptation first, The Quiet Girl! I think it helped me interpret the book better after 🙂

    Thanks for the lovely recs.. am definitely adding all of these to my list. I just finished reading this phenomenal collection of fairy tales entitled 'Sillies, Fancies and Trifles' - highly recommend, it's perfect for the season. Keep up the beautiful vids!

    Loved your list, have read all of them except for Almond. Oh! I think Foster actually counts as historical lot fic too, it’s set in the early 80s. 😊

      Wow we have similar reading lists lol, hope you have the chance to check out Almond! Also totally didn't realize Foster took place in the 80s, but thinking back to it, that makes a lot of sense... 😅

    I started with a Murakami book, and I love it.

      Ok I'm impressed! I read Kafka on the Shore a few years ago and it was sooo hard for me 😭

    Great recommendations.
    I just finished Sweet Bean Paste by Durian Sukegawa, and it was very good.

    Hey, I know you enjoy literary fiction, and I think you’d really connect with The Echoes Within by Alex Hartwell. It's a story that explores memory, identity, and the essence of who we are, all wrapped in a thought-provoking narrative. The book is available for free on Barnes & Noble, Fabble, Kobo, and will soon be on all major book platforms. I’d love for you to read it and share your thoughts!

    Alchemist was an amazing book, and I’m below average reader, I would say. Maybe because I’m a spiritual person I found it so exciting and easy to read.
