Despite its various themes like crime, death, hauntings, child abuse, and COVID, ultimately, this is a fairly cheerful book with a positive outlook. Topics are handled intelligently and deftly, a sign of an author at the top of her craft.

(c) (failed to raise it on appeal when could and should have done, except ineffective counsel)
(d) ..ground…relates solely to the validity of thesentence and not to the validity of the conviction

25/25: #TheSentence

#thesentence audio book -- references as far ranging as Yeats (instead of "separate the dancer from the dance", there's "the reader from the book") and Tuck, Everlasting ("Tookie would always be Tookie, now and forever"). so completely clever and affecting a novel.

Final February Fun of A-Cover-A-Day, books I love. That is all!

Finished book. Nowt to read on bus. I thought it was pretty poor. Reviews say ‘stunning - powerful - funny - heartwarming ‘. I thought it was none of those things. Stitched together and a bit dull. #louiseerdrich #thesentence Pollux bollux tookie wookie

Habe versucht die beiden Bücher #DerBetrunkeneBerg und #TheSentence in einem Absatz zu besprechen und bin bei einem der beiden daran gescheitert. Ihr könnt gern raten welches oder die Absätze hier nachlesen: wp.me/p57InC-dcT In beiden Büchern spielen Buchhandlungen eine Rolle. 📚♥️

Good Lord, why aren't we all talking about #thesentence by Louise Erdrich? It is AMAZING. Laugh out loud funny but also historical, sad, moving, real. As ever, my goddess.

one thing you will learn from the audio book of #thesentence is that Louise Erdrich, goddess, watches #BattlestarGalactica!! for real. whoa.
