Oh I just LOVE seeing mentions of Light from Uncommon Stars. That's a book that has stayed with me over the years -- the best of quirky creativity and deep humanity.
What a delight Sara! I loved reading each and every submission and found a couple new to me reading friends to follow:) Now here's what I'm asking myself - how did I not know about that James Baldwin book and do I need a Brick haha....the answer is yes to both:)

These recs include some of my personal favs, James Baldwin, Alice McDermott and Ann Patchett.
Check out my list! I read 46 books, my record. I wrote about the ones I could share story tips about. I'm going to get The Mesmerist.
Love reading this with morning coffee. I had forgotten about The Mesmerist and need to make sure I get around to it next year.
Enjoyed this very much.

I’m off to go find The Mesmerist! Thanks for all the great recs
So many great friends and great books here!
I loved this list, too! MJ is the reason I converted to a BookTok appreciator. His recommendations and reviews are always so warm.
