Gustav Is Missing!: A Tale of Friendship and Bravery is not necessarily the best book I have read, or the funniest, or even the most unique of messages; but it is all those things and more.

Normal People by Sally Rooney

by Leave a Comment

Like many, I bought into what Sally Rooney was selling here hook, line, and sinker. It's not just because she tells quite a story in a beautiful way. It's because, like few writers I've read, she engages in the subtleties and nuances of human emotion. It's hard writing any book but without … [Read more]
