Soups and puddings illicit often thoughts of comfort foods. The addition of “soft foods” takes this in an entirely new direction. Suddenly we’re thinking those that can’t chew. Again, Hannah teases us with a feeling we know and enjoy . . . and then she spins it, so we have lost something.
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!
I regularly share well-written lines and passages from the books I’m reading. If you’d like to receive them regularly, just enter your email below, and click subscribe!
