I’m sending out this round-up of my March reading before we get to May (barely) — I’ll take that as a win. Here are the books I read last month: Maud Martha by Gwendolyn Brooks (1953; Faber, 2022): This was the March pick for One Bright Book — you can listen to our conversation here
Thanks for saving me from getting a few I was contemplating, although adding a few I was not! I also much preferred Is Mother Dead and was disappointed it didn’t make the shortlist.
You’re so right about In a Lonely Place. A great and chilling book. Have you watched the movie with Bogart? Verrrrrry different.
I want to read so many of these. Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I'm looking forward to this month's write up.
