On my shelf are:

Hagstone Sinéad Gleeson (loving it!)

Wild Dark Shore Charlotte McConaghy

Orbital Samantha Harvey

The Book of Alchemy by Suleika Jaouad

When will I read all these!?!?!? 🤪

Also excited about my second novel coming out on June 9th, Her Lisbon Colors. I am selling the book and a special edition with art goodies at my bookshop. Hope it's okay to link here.

Oooh Orbital is going to be one of our book picks later this year! Maybe you’ll read it then? ☺️

I am going to check out all the other books you listed. Thank you, Cynthia!

Can’t go wrong with Backman! I’m not so patiently waiting for July for These Summer Storms by Sarah McLean. I love a messy family dynamic.
