Normal People by Sally Rooney- Okay, so I didn’t technically read this while on holiday, I read it on the 4th of July, but I’m including it in my favorite summer reads.Also heard a wonderful interview with the author on The High Low podcast which is worth checking out. Queenie by Candice Carty-Williams- It has been described as a black British modern Bridget Jones, which is a bit apt but with perhaps more substance.Spinning Silver and Uprooted both by Naomi Novik- What deliciously written books with thoughtful symbolism for those interested in reading into the stories more. Figured it might be fun to make a small list of my favorite books I read while away and a few favorite memories/food eaten. I spent a lot of time reading (I devoured 8 books while I was away!), checking out these cities, walking on average 10 miles a day, and eating copious amounts of yummy food. It was a real privilege to travel and spend that time the way I wanted too, not being beholden to anyone else. After adventures in Israel, Denmark, and Sweden I’m back home for a little while… this trip was so insightful, and I feel so lucky that I got to spend all that time with myself. After over a month away, I’m back and ready to scroll through tumblr again (I guess I just can’t quite you).
