Congrats!!!
Oh I adored Address Unknown. I read it for university and it was quite spectacular.
Short, but such a huge impact. I’ve got several massive books on my tbr list, so I’m interspersing it with some really short books picked fairly at random. This is definitely one I’m glad I chose.
I keep noticing a lack of love for We Have Always Lived in the Castle among redditors in this challenge. lol.
I read I because I saw so many redditors recommending it, but it was not for me.
I can definitely see it not being for everyone. Good on you for giving it a read though!
