    You’re the first person who has actually made me want to read Crossroads, I’ve always been a bit unsure of Franzen and if I’d like him. I think you’ve sold me on him.

    I definitely feel you on wanting to slow down and really sit with the characters in a book.
    Also I love the way you speak. You have a great vocabulary 👑🫶🏾

    Ooh, I read and loved the Shipping News about 10 years ago when i was doing a journalism qualification. I loved it but I barely remember anything about it.
    I am loving this video and update on ny lunch break! Im pregnant and can only seem to do audiobooks at the moment... Trying Soldier Sailor at the moment but its a bit close to home with the difficulties of motherhood !

      Hey, I'm so glad that you're here. Also, congratulations on the your bundle of joy. I've actually gravitated towards a few audiobooks recently due to my new job and that are great so far.

      My daughter did too. For me, I was 13 which threw me off about my daughter. When I heard this essay, I listen to it twice. Also, Samantha is black I forgot to mention, which made me all the more intrigued. If you should try it out do let me know how it resonated with you.

    I am intrigued!!!! I added these books to my Amazon cart.
    I am currently reading Nightcrawling By Leila Mottley.

      Oh I heard Nightcrawling was amazing. I think it was nominated for the women’s prize last year, either that or the Man Booker. Either way, I heard the author is a young powerhouse. I hope it’s good.

      Hey girly. I’m absolutely fine. I’ve actually started a new job and it’s extremely demanding on my body and I’m just adjusting. I have a reading vlog I need to edit and I’ve also still be reading quite a lot. When I came muster up the energy, I will film a wrap up as I have so much to discuss. Thank you for your concern, it means a lot to me!
