Because I know people are struggling at home right now… I’d like to share a few books I’ve read recently that were just pure joy, no heaviness at all. I’m not including recent reads like White Fragility, no matter how amazing. Nor am I including romances, which would be difficult, because I have so many amazing author pals I’d like to share. Here’s a list of just pure, joyful escapism. (And yes, I’m reading a lot of fantasy lately!)
