I´m looking forward to reading Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi. I read Transcendent Kingdom last year, and it gave me so much to think about.

I LOVED both of them! Let me know what you think of Homegoing?

Will do! I will start it once I finish Rules for Visiting, which I am dragging out as long as I can, because I don't want it to end.

Reckless Girls and Anatomy: a love story are both books I’m looking forward to as well! And Book Lovers. And probably 15 other titles.

Reckless Girls was my BOTM pick. I can't wait to read it 🙌🏼 I have to disagree about Working. I enjoyed the parts about Robert Moses, as that part of history is fascinating. But as a book for writers, I give it 1 star.
