[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just started The Poisonwood Bible for book club…just a few pages in and loving the writing! I’m also listening to A Breath of Snow and Ashes as my audiobook; will likely be doing so for awhile in parallel with a physical and/or ebook.[/quote] Sharing more per later post… Poisonwood Bible is an earlier Barbara Kingsolver (1998) about southern Baptist missionaries in the Congo in 1959, told from the POV of the mother and four daughters. Gorgeous writing, especially one of the daughters who plays with language in a Nabokovian manner (which I love!). Breath of Snow is book 6 in the Outlander series…the narrator (especially reading Claire’s perspective) is almost comforting to me at this point; a lot of descriptions of cozy domestic scenes, with some action. Definitely a slow burn; still not a Roger fan.[/quote]
