JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 06/10/2025This one was too real. Hard to believe it was written in 1922. #booksky @ndbooks.bsky.social 030
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 29/09/2025I’ve got my October reading stacked up. Lots from the National Book Awards. Looking forward to the @goldsmithsprize.bsky.social shortlist. #booksky @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social @ndbooks.bsky.social @citylightsbooks.bsky.social #proustsky @graywolfpress.bsky.social 060
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 27/09/2025Horrifying, with a tiny glimmer of hope at the end. @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social @arielsaramandi.bsky.social #booksky 041
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 27/09/2025Puzzling. Keep ‘em coming, @andotherstories.bsky.social #booksky 041
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 24/09/2025I liked the inventive structure of Makenna Goodman’s new book throughout, but I was really won over by the final pages. @coffeehousepress.bsky.social #booksky 010
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 23/09/2025Thanks for this moving book, @grady-chambers.bsky.social , and thanks for the ARC, @tinhouse.bsky.social #booksky 010
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 23/09/2025I just finished Audition yesterday. So happy it made the Booker shortlist! @katiekitamura.bsky.social @thebookerprizes.com #booksky 210
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 17/09/2025With this one, I’ve finished (and loved) the 100 volumes of the Collectors’ Wodehouse. #booksky @everymanslibrary.bsky.social @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social 1224
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 09/09/2025Why did I wait so long to read this? So good. I can’t for the next book from @waidner.bsky.social : As If. Preordered. #booksky 151
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 14/08/2025Just finished these two today. Very different. Both formidably written (and translated). #booksky #WITMonth @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social 0123
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 13/08/2025My favorite way to experience a city? Running through its empty streets hours before dawn, catching breaths of chilled air blowing under the glass doors of the office buildings, knowing that before long, the streets and sidewalks will be packed. #booksky @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social 093
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 12/08/2025Look at this! Going to the top of my TBR list for an upcoming road trip. Thanks, @tinhouse.bsky.social #booksky 041
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 11/08/2025What a fun book! Every time I recognized one of the sources, I got a little jolt of joy. #booksky @tomcomitta.bsky.social @coffeehousepress.bsky.social 021
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 09/08/2025Just finished my second book by Ben Myers. “The Gallows Pole” was terrific, as was “Cuddy.” Which of his books should I read next? #booksky 010
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 09/08/2025Looking for a good read for Women in Translation Month? Try Gabriela Cabezón Cámara’s “We Are Green and Trembling,” translated by Robin Myers. It’s a winner. #booksky @ndbooks.bsky.social 0135
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 31/07/2025I’ve got some great reading lined up (well, stacked up) for August! @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social @ndbooks.bsky.social #booksky 160
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 22/07/2025Look what just showed up on the doorstep! ❤️📚 @dseuss.bsky.social @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social #booksky 010
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 21/07/2025I’ve got some promising books lined up for the week. @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social @penguinclassicsusa.bsky.social @fantagraphics.bsky.social 010
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 20/07/2025Finished this week: Ian Penman’s “Erik Satie Three Piece Suite,” SJ Kim’s “This Part is Silent,” and Georgi Gospodinov’s “The Phyics of Sorrow.” @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social @andotherstories.bsky.social @liveright.bsky.social #booksky 260
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 14/07/2025What a strange and wonderful book. @pipadam.bsky.social @coffeehousepress.bsky.social #booksky 291
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 14/07/2025I’ll be starting these beauties this week. @andotherstories.bsky.social @jeffvandermeer.bsky.social 000
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 13/07/2025Finished this week…and some great books on tap for next week. Loving rainy days. ❤️📚 000
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 13/07/2025Best reread of the year! …and I’ve got Diamond Stuff on order. Life is good. @graywolfpress.bsky.social @waidner.bsky.social 142
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 11/07/2025I just finished this terrific collection. These stories take me back to the many places I’ve lived all over the South. I loved spending time with these characters. Fave story: “The Happy Land.” Thanks for the ARC, @tinhouse.bsky.social ❤️❤️ 021
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 10/07/2025My first book by Matthias Énard. I loved how the two stories paced around one another without engaging patly. I’ve already got Zone on order. @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social 142
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 07/07/2025Oh, excited to start this one, too! @coffeehousepress.bsky.social 000
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 07/07/2025Books I’ll start this week. @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social @liveright.bsky.social 1101
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 06/07/2025Finished this week. Thoroughly enjoyed both, especially the twisty Natalja’s Stories - the latest in my New Directions subscription. @ndbooks.bsky.social 000
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 30/06/2025Books I’m starting this week. ❤️ @tinhouse.bsky.social @ndbooks.bsky.social @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social @dseuss.bsky.social @waidner.bsky.social @coffeehousepress.bsky.social @graywolfpress.bsky.social 072
JP @jpa6.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Finished this week. Flower and Barley Patch were good, but resisted my affection. Companion Piece, like all of Ali Smith's books, was easy to love. McNally's plays managed to get me as fired up as they did back in the 1990s. @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social @andotherstories.bsky.social 000
