finished my second book of this month, but also of the last almost 3 years. both are short, just a bit over 100 pages, but books. fully read. by me.
i gave them both a 3,5 rating, i didn't enjoy them as much as i used to enjoy reading before the full scale war. but knowing that i finally read something-classics too!!-made me feel refreshed, and maybe not as dumb as i usually feel.

2023 Reads: Another Brooklyn by Jacqueline Woodson

Finished April 28, 2021. Three stars.
Another Brooklyn by Jacqueline Woodson
You simply cannot go wrong with a Jacqueline Woodson book, you cannot! I read this book in two different sittings, both while in the bath (my new favorite way to read books) and I think it helped with fostering an immersive experience, transporting back to 1970s Bushwick. After reading two books in a row set in California, it was nice to spend some time on the other coast. One of my favorite things (and saddest?) about New York is that it's constantly changing, and you can never go back to the time before. So this is a vignette, of this time and space, told by one woman reflecting on her adolescence and her friend group. As much as I love the vignette form, I did feel like I wanted more from this slim lil book, but at the same time I think it works exactly as it is.

I lifted my head to look up into the changing leaves, thinking about how at some point, we were all headed home. At some point, all of this, everything and everyone, became memory.

Our land moved in grassy waves toward the water. The land ended at the water. Maybe my mother had forgotten this. And kept on walking.
