Quick. Careless. Hastily created. An afterthought. Perhaps the lips were crooked or formed an unusually small mouth? Here Hannah clearly describes a dominant nose . . . and then leaves the thin lips up to the reader.
It’s early in the year, but I think The Nightingale will be one of my favorite 2024 reads. Kristin Hannah places some beautiful and descriptive lines within a poignant plot fleshed out with engaging characters. If you’ve not read any Hannah, I’d recommend her work (especially The Nightingale)! Check her out in GoodReads!
