12 -- Title Starting With The Letter "L"
I am also going to read Little Women, it’s the January pick for my classic book clubActually I am moving this to self insert by author as it roughly based on her life
Instead London (Edward Rutherfurd) will go here
My choices here all crossover with Women in STEM. I'll listen to Lessons in Chemistry.I also have Love Theoretically, Love on the Brain, and The Love Hypothesis to choose from.
I read Last to Leave the Room by Caitlin Starling. A very interesting speculative thriller with queer and disabled main characters. This was the first book of Starling's that I've read, and I'm definitely adding her others to by tbr list.
Book 5/52 is Lincoln In The Bardo by George Saunders. Saunders is an author I’ve been meaning to read for years - and he’s at the peak of his powers here. Inventive, sensitive and meticulously crafted - it takes a minute to get used to the structure but once you’re into it, you’re in for such a treat.
I read Lord of the Flies by William Golding - not for me, I think! This is the first I've completed for my classics group.
I read Let Us Descend
by Jesmyn Ward Jesmyn Ward. A difficult read, but one important to process and understand.
