Welcome to the Book Nook! This is the weekly thread for Avocados to discuss books we’re currently reading, recommendations, genre, and serious literary criticism.
This week’s recommended discussion: In honor of Valentine’s Day, what are some of your favorite books about love or heartache? Which books get it right, and which absolutely do not?
One caveat: because we’re here to use our words, this is a NO GIF/YouTube/social media embed zone (the OTs are full of clutter, and I want to keep that out of this thread).
upcoming topics:
2/20: books that turned you on to a subject or genre (h/t upvote moneydog)
2/27: books that hurt (h/t Thomas the Fifth)
3/6: books as clues or touchstones in TV or movies
3/13: scamming authors and epic little liars (h/t a quiet storm)
