COIN LOCKER BABIES!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks so much for taking the time to check out my recommendation! I agree, the plot is a bit sloppy in some places, and it's definitely the type of story you can't read when you're not in the mood, though it sounds like you enjoyed it overall. Srsly thanks again for reading it and posting your review. I'm always excited to hear your thoughts about different books

Ohhh šibenik!! My dad's favourite town, it really is beautiful... I was in Tkon! Mali grad na Pašmanu, really comfy place. Thanks, today I spent most of my day cleaning the flakes from my scalp ;__;

So cool that you've got your own car now!! Do you think you'll still take the trams even when you're able to drive on your own? Also I see you've gotten around to reading the better Murakami 👀 Eyes peeled for that review, I wonder if it's as good as I remember

I'm still a public transport tram fan deep in my heart, and ill probably be too scared to drive a car in the big city for a while... although theyre slowly phasing out my favourite old tram model so ill have less reasons to take them in the future ;_;

I was surprised by it as well honestly, and I have to agree with you on williams writing beautiful but concise prose... I love when writers are able to get to the point quickly without making their prose drab and dry it's really a crazy skill to have lol

I read Stoner many years ago, long before our website, but I remember thinking it was good. I reviewed a very different novel by Williams in 2018 - Augustus - based on Emperor Augustus of the Roman Empire. It is also worth a look. Good review!

so excited for your index of nostalgic sites!!!!
