7/2/2023 0 Comments Ghost wall novel![]() ![]() ![]() Beginning my Sarah Moss discovery, which I’ve been longing to embark upon on reading Rohan Maitzen’s reviews of her other books, which sound as intriguing as they are wide-ranging. The book was Sarah Moss’s new novel, Ghost Wall, which only just came out (super exciting-I tend to be either six months or decades behind on all the newest things) and I’d read the review in the Toronto Star that morning. ![]() Something more uplifting than Did You Ever Have a Family, was my premise, though I wasn’t exactly successful on that front, but then a book need not be uplifting when it is brilliant, original and completely affecting. And when I finished reading Did You Ever Have a Family, by Bill Clegg, on Saturday morning (acquired from a Little Free Library has been sitting on my shelf for months is so incredible but also very sad) and we had no further plans for the day, I decided that what I really, really needed was a bookshop venture, and my family was kind enough to accompany me, obviously with the promise of snacks.Īnd what a wonderful thing, for me at least, although probably not my family, to arrive at the bookshop without an idea of what I was looking for. Which I’ve been pretty successful at with a huge tower of reading completed over the holidays, and also a clear-out of more than a few books that I decided to finally accept that I would never read. I’ve been avoiding bookshops lately ( except for a trip to Type Books’ new location in The Junction in December!) with a focus on reducing the overwhelming number of books on my to-be-read shelf. ![]()
