  • Charlotte Mcconaghy

    My latest discovery, from this year are definitely books of Charlotte Mcconaghy. I feel like the way she is interlacing nature with human tragedies is something incredible that I did not found in the way she did it yet. I read "Migrations", "Wild Dark Shore" and "Once There Were Wolves" as they are the only three books we have in my country and I fall in all of them just this year. My favourite one is after a lot of thoughts - the first one I read, which is "Wild Dark Shore". The plot and nature spoke to me the most, I even cried at the end although they are all beautifully written with such a sensitivity and a true look on our (future) world. I was wondering -if you read something from this author- what do you think about her work? Is it something you lacked before in reading or is it something absolutely not for you. I'm truly curious what you all think about it!

  • Nostalgia: What do you miss about reading when you were a kid?

    So I was literally just thinking about how different my reading is from when I was younger to now and I was thinking about all the things that I kind of missed so I'm just curious about how everyone else feels

    Like is there a difference for you between like when you read as a kid or not?

    Personally, I miss how easily I picked my next reads. Like I did not face the indecision that I do know and I really miss the like lack of decision issues. However I also really makes this one very specific thing, possibly maybe to just England although I don't know, but I really miss library buses because that's what introduced me to reading as a kid, and it would just be so nostalgic just to even see one again. It is literally just as its name suggests, a little mini library on wheels and it was so amazing when it would like come onto the street and you would like walk past the lamp post and see when it would next show up on the street and get so excited over it like I want that excitement again I miss it.

    So, ramble over, is there a reading thing specifically as a kid that's like pure nostalgia. Or just anything that gives you like nostalgia, I'm really curious and nosy.
