#FridayReads @JuliaLizElliott HELLIONS @Tin_House Stories best read in a well-lit room. Nothing is as it seems.
This past year has been one of sorrow for me. These writers and books helped me with grieving: @JoyceCarolOates A WIDOW'S STORY, Joan Didion A YEAR OF MAGICAL THINKING, @GeraldineBrooks MEMORIAL DAYS.
#FridayReads @SignePike THE SHADOWED LAND @AtriaBooks The 6th century epic continues with a new perspective on Arthur and a brief appearance by the Loch Ness monster. Vivid characters, enjoyable narrative.
#FridayReads @GeraldineBrooks MEMORIAL DAYS @VikingBooks For any one who grieves for a lost loved one. Reading this brought me comfort.
#Friday Reads @Hanifkureishi SHATTERED @eccobooks A fall, at home. A testimony to the resilience of spirit, a tribute to a mind unconquered by adversity.

#FridayReads Tonight will be bad, and tomorrow will be beyond imagining. THE DARK IS RISING @TDiRReadathon
The real Europe is not a posh café ... #FridayReads Rachel Kushner CREATION LAKE. It becomes a territory of eco-terroism, with Neanderthal-haunted caves and a woman with an assumed name engaged in espionage. #BookerPrizeShortlist title.
#NotreDameReopening All these lovely moments. Dignified person of the Macrons, First Lady Jill Biden, Prince William. This is why I stay with Twitter.
A word Americans should know now more than ever: Kakistocracy- a government run by the worst, least qualified, or most unscrupulous citizens. Yes, there’s a word for it.
