What I'm Reading

Have you read Melissa Bank? She hasn't written a new book in years which is very sad but the two she has (The Girl's Guide To Hunting And Fishing and this one) remain old favourites that I read over and over again. Unimaginative people might call her chick lit, after all each novel features a young woman looking for love, but they are so much more, especially this one. Young Sophie navigates friendship, her siblings, a job she doesn't really care about (though she wants to) as well as her Jewish identity to find what she's looking for: herself. This is one of the smartest and funniest (in an observational humour way not so much lol) books I've ever read, perhaps that's why I keep going back to Melissa, over and over again. She reminds me of Curtis Sittenfeld (another fav) so that's high enough praise for some of you. Everyone else, get on it! #oldfavourites #mrmbookclub #bookstagram #melissabank #thewonderspot
