What You Are Looking For Is In the Library - so, so good! It was a little hard to get into, switching characters like it does, but definitely worth it when everything comes together.

I read The Two Lives of Lydia Bird! Highly recommend for romance fans! Love stories, challenges of losing a loved ones, and adventure of finding yourself!

I read Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami. The book is named after the title of a Beatles song. It is written by a Japanese author in Japanese and has been translated. Good read.

Currently reading “The Summer Book” by Tove Jannsen. It is a book of existence and discovery of life by two women at either end of their lives - a six year old and her grandmother. So far (1/3 way through) the father and a deceased mother are shadows in the background on the family’s semi-solitary island life.
