Glasgow is pronounced 'Glaz-go'

Love your reading group. I came here looking for analysis about this book because I've been obsessed with it since I finished it, and I wish I had a group like yours to talk about it. Loved hearing your thoughts

SPOILER I think it does not matter whether Kay killed herself or if it was an accident. It was the abusive relationship with her husband that killed her. That relationship eroded her and diminished her character throughout the book so she became a shadow of what she was portrayed at the beginning of the book. Either if she decided to killed herself after that abusive relationship, or if she fell after becoming obsessed with war planes (because she and Harald weaponized the US going to war against each other), it was all Harald's fault in the end. And I feel that Harald's actions at her funeral kind of portray this conclusion in the author's mind.

Yooooo

Can’t wait to read most of these! 📚

Fascinating review, summary & author bio. Read for my book club! 👏🏼👏🏼

One correction: the book by John Knowles is A Separate Peace, not Piece

I've read several of Nora Ephron's books, Heartburn being just one of them. I'll preface this saying; I love Nora Ephron's humor. I love her style of writing because she rights exactly the same way she would have a conversation with her reader. Her belief that "everything is copy" shines through in Heartburn which she says is based on her marriage (and ultimately her divorce) from Washington Post writer Carl Berstein of Watergate fame and his infidelity to her while being pregnant with their second child. It is the perfect example of taking a horrible, painful situation and turning it into a good read with all of the names changed to protect her from lawsuits. Speaking of which, Bernstein had the gall to insist that she make changes to the book and the movie to make him look like less of a schmuck. Sorry Carl, you're a schmuck. Her final documentary film, "Everything is Copy" directed by her son Jason Berstein exposes the truth about his parents less than amicable divorce-much to his father's chagrin. It honestly makes me sad that out of the two of them, Nora is the one who's life was cut short by cancer.

10/10

The Bloomsbury Set were a small group of precious, self-important snobs who wrote about and for a very select privileged group in London. The working classes were looked on with paternalistic contempt - typical middle class liberals that would, unfortunately, come to control the British Labour Party.

You should not judge a book by the movie!❤

Intelligent writing (setting, stories, style -the name of the novel was chosen with a milimétricas precision and intentions-), great pacing… a roller coaster. As a non-American my points of views and highlights differ from most Americans (as far as I can tell by watching several reviews of this book on RUclips). Is interesting to hear others seeking for a clue on issues perhaps I find trivial; and the opposite. Great novel, great characters, great portrait of a troubled (apparently average and normal) family on a given moment of the US history. Great start for a trilogy.

Kay did not kill herself

Thank you, my five would be Brave new world The last castle Mrs Dalloway Mythos Rules for visiting

Thanks for sharing this Stacey, remembering how it was a before the Pandemic wish I had, to be able to have these for homebound as well as other cultural reasons...I do love the Chicago connections in many of these books and artists. Looking forward to our Book groups and enjoying Cindy Edelman's input.

I loved Death of the Heart. So curious to read another by Bowen

I totally understand that addiction since I have it too 😊

I have Always wanted to purchase a little shop and transfered to a book store, this actually my dream and i will work for it hardly but i don't know of this dream will come true some day because we are facing an economic crises and books are so expensive to have even for a reader an author like me. Please we need a lot of videos for the ideas of bookstore, please i am learning from you a lot. Thank you. Hugs from a Lebanese author ❤🇱🇧

I loved The Luminaries!!

I also love Persephone but just a note to say that their bookshop is no longer in London but has moved to Bath.

My daughter and I are contemplating a bookstore right now. Thanks for all the encouragement!

Hi Stacey! We met at Daunt Books in Marylebone. Look forward to watching your videos!

I'm sorry, what rights have been taken away from women.? You must explain that comment.

There is a substantial reading community (Booktube) here on RUclips - and there will be some people who would love to know about your book clubs and what you are doing. The standard "calling card" is to do a Booktube Newbie Tag. If you type that 3 word phrase into RUclips, you will see those introductory videos by other reader/presenters. There are standard questions to answer, to introduce yourself. Do give it a go, I think it will increase your channel's reach.

I love your channel! I just found it today for the 1st time. Thank you

I am crazy about you!

Excellent review of Wind Sand and Stars.

The Group, as well as two other works of McCarthy, can be found on audible, but alas NOT for readers in the US,

Nothing makes me angrier than hearing people call Renia Spiegel, Eva Heyman, Hélène Berr and Rutka Laskier "another Anne Frank"

lol He didn't take a selfie!!

The FIRST "Cheaper By the Dozen" movie - in the 40's with Clifton Webb, Myrna Loy and Jean Crain - was WONDERFUL!! try it!

Very nautical 🧜‍♀️

What a wonderful summary. Thank you for sharing!

I loved this. Thank you

The book is dope

They are amazing! And don't forget to mention that the typeface is always pleasing. I can't get enough. In fact, I came across this because I started another Dorothy Whipple today (They Were Sisters) and wanted to see if anyone had posted videos. Thank you.

You're an example that you can start a small business with a few products. I'm a independant publisher on Amazon and I would like to start a small business selling.my own notebooks. Congratulations for the work you do.

I bought Hotel Du Lac today ans searched book notes on RUclips, I saw your video, so happy~ I really hope you can open your camera and show your elegant face in front of your audiences.

I want to open a book store in Oregon, Washington, and Vermont because those are the most readed states people love to read. Any other States I will not do.

I wake up and to not disturb anyone else, I keep quiet and watch videos or listen to podcasts. Looking forward to reading this new book. How did the valerian root work out?

Persephone Books are so beautiful and really one of a kind. I love them, too, and really wantto go to their shop one day.
