Christie Tate Book Recommendations & Book Mentions

Christie Tate

Sentence by sentence, the language shimmers on the page. It’s the story of a young woman who’s moved home and now shares a bedroom with her prickly 73-year-old grandmother, Mineko... it’s about how stories are passed down and come alive, how they transform and heal us.

There is no summer read like this one: a group of wealthy Manhattan couples go away for the weekend to an astrology retreat. (An astrology retreat!!! ⭐️☀️🌔🌙)...if you’re taking a flight, sitting by a lake, or commuting to work in the 100-degree heat, let this book be your companion.

You will not see the color yellow or the city of Houston the same way after you read this book. Nobody braids better than Lidia. And nobody writes with as much heart and voice but with zero pretension as she does.

This incredible book!!! Unforgettable story telling. A perfect example of how fiction creates empathy...Those of you sitting on the fence because of an allergy to popular books…. I see you. This one is the real deal.

When I love a book I have no shame...I had no idea how much spouses gave up on the day-to-day level for the military. I didn’t know how complicated the hierarchy was even in social settings. This is a story I didn’t know. And it’s a page turner.

If you’re missing @caitlinclark22 and @staley05 and jonesing for a beautiful book about #basketball, sure, but also hometowns, devotions, baldness, grief, love, enemies, homecomings, begging, and hope— this book is a winner.

Today is #worldmentalhealthday @worldmentalhealthday. Maybe you’re not ready to pick up the phone, call a therapist, fill out a form, join a group. You could start with a book. It counts. They’ve saved many a life. 📘📙📘📙 Friendly reminder: addiction is a mental health issue.

Martyr! is a beautiful read for those of us who care about recovery, language, “home,” what it means to be good, to matter, to join, to mourn, to seek, to question, to feel, to dream and to tell stories and make art. How he did all that in 331 pages is proof he’s a poet.

If you like a true story of how someone turned her life around— veering off the tippy top of the corporate ladder to return to her family farm to help her mother pass and figure out what the F is next….Help yourself to the wise, warm, witty memoir, The Order of Things, by @scgormley. It will delight and inspire you!

I tore through Age of Vice last week... author @deeptikp swept me into this epic tale about an Indian crime dynasty, and I couldn’t put it down... If you love fast-paced stories with characters making hard choices in tough situations, pick this one up.
