A gem of a book. 💎 Spare and lyrical at the same time. Humanity and wilderness sculpted into just 146 pages. Love an author with the skill and self-control to give the reader only what is essential. Ivar is tremendous. 💛 Sublime.

Very good. Here's another one that also invites reflection (literally).

Excellent. A former palliative care consultant on living, dying and the immeasurable importance of talking openly about death and dying and treating every patient/person with respect and care. @drkathrynmannix.bsky.social *****

Lovely bumble, buzzing away happily, visiting every flower. This is our wild (neglected) patch beside our house. So cheering to just sit there and watch #bees, bumblebees, butterflies and a dragonfly dawdling about, paying a visit. Sustenance for them and sustenance for me! 🌼🐝😊 #nature

I love an author who has the courage to tackle complex issues and the skill to pull it off with sensitivity and insight, while maintaining pace and tension. A masterclass in characterisation. Absolutely brilliant ***** @elenikwriter.bsky.social 🙌🏼

Disturbing and brilliant #YA verse novel about county lines, drug trafficking, friendship, family, grief and redemption from @tiafisher.bsky.social @hotkeybooks.bsky.social. A brutal gut-punch underlaid with tenderness and love.

Drive home over the hill after swimming. Ahhh. Phone camera can't do justice to the warm peachy glow 😌🍑

Food for the soul 😌

Really strong non-fic. Hugely interesting and informative, but also philosophical, poignant, poetic. So many very human stories, of integrity, generosity and grace. One of those books that reminds you how incredible humans can be. @peteralanross.bsky.social
