Looking for new books to read as I am preparing to head out on a much needed vacation and want to dig into some good reading. Can be fiction or nonfiction, just so long as it hooked you and made you want to keep reading and reading until the end.

    My two favorites so far this year are Babel by RF Kuang and The Women Could Fly by Megan Giddings

      Seconding Babel. Such a powerful read for me as I grew up in a former British colony. Some of the parallels to the real world colonial system and how it affects locals are so relatable, even today!

      Babel has been on my list for a while! Need to give it a bump to the top soon.

      Have you read Yellowface? Or her other series, The Poppy War?
