Brooklyn, by Colm Toibin. I have 20 pages left and I'm putting it off b/c I don't want it to end. This book lifted my spirits so. All Fours is waiting for me at the library. :)

If you love intelligent travel writing, try Lost Pianos of Siberia by Sophy Roberts. She’s a real deal traveller who loves to tell the stories of those she meets along the way and weaves political history in.
