@melissacuisine @hulu What do you think of Sally Rooney? I have Normal People but every time I think about reading it I can never bring myself to do it. I know the characters are going to irritate me from the little parts I have read.

@vicklbennett @TopTweetTuesday @PMOsborneWriter @guentheralex Honestly a part from a few works where I think Wordsworth Is sublime I think he is very boring in comparison to Coleridge. Lyrical Ballads is great though

So Long, See You Tomorrow: National Book Award Winner

William Maxwell
David HayDavid Hay

@gobpilepress Yeah both books are distinct in style but there is a thread linking them, at least in my head. Have you ever read So Long, See you Tomorrow by William Maxwell? It very much has echos of So the Wind to me in tone and theme, though very different styles.
