Been that kind of day. But I started Lila and I absolutely LOVE IT. Want to read it slow because it's so well written and those kind of books are few and far between. Thanks for the tip! And based on Justina's comment I think I'm going to have to find End of the House of Alard as well!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02694238523971341707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3883970092765312318.post-91571366687627256882016-05-22T20:21:40.782-06:002016-05-22T20:21:40.782-06:00I LOVED Notes From A Blue Bike and adore Tsh' ...I LOVED Notes From A Blue Bike and adore Tsh' podcast and blog and instagram. I am excited for her next book to come out about her world-wide trip with her family! Her honest writing is a breath of fresh air.<br /><br />I really like Gilead and have been wanting to read Lila. I want to skip the second book since I am not particularly interested in that one. Will I miss anything big if I skip to Lila or is it a stand alone novel since the plot is focused on her life before meeting the reverend? <br /><br />Found you through Quick Lit linkup.
