I am reading Read-to Know! I needed to get in on the Liz Moore dish. Speaking of dishes, I love a watermelon salad with the addition of arugula. I'd maybe throw some pomegranate seeds on top for the crunch and make that perfection! Also, when lost in the woods (or really for a variety of reasons in the woods), I cry. Which demographic does that fit?? I read God of the Woods in less than a day, despite the fact that I can't think of anything I'd rather do less than camp.

Proud of you for reading this today, thank you for your service. I too would cry and also accept my imminent death.

In reading The God of the Woods now and I would definitely describe it as immersive and atmospheric

Yes! We love when an author knows their own book. Because lets be honest, sometimes they have no clue.

I really want to re-read The Remains of the Day but it’s one of those that I loved so much, what if I don’t like it that much now? But Liz Moore makes me think I should do it. Also yes re inhaling that book in a day despite no desire to be anywhere near its setting.

I still need to read TROTD I loved NEVER LET ME GO but I haven't read any of his other stuff. I think it will hold up for you though, it is rare to love a book a lot and then reread it and not still love it (at least it is rare for me).

NLMG is on my list for the Stacks Mega Challenge - I am excited to finally get round to it! I read TROTD as a teenager - I think reading it as a middle aged person is going to be fascinating. (Also, I wonder if re-reading a beloved teenaged read would be a fun category for future challenges?)
