Another #sentenceoftheday #booksky #RichardRusso #BridgeofSighs I'm really enjoying this novel even tho nothing has happened yet. I'm on p. 81: "What I discovered I liked best about striking out on my bicycle was that the farther I got from home, the more interesting & unusual my thoughts became."

#sentenceoftheday #RichardRusso #booksky #BridgeofSighs "The middle, she said, was the real America, the America that mattered, the America that we were worth fighting wars to defend."

Reading #RichardRusso is making me want to write more. That's really a shock because, well, we have nothing in common 😂 #amreading #booksky #BridgeofSighs

#sentenceoftheday #RichardRusso #booksky "My mother had, more than once in my young life, suggested that she knew me better than I knew myself, so I supposed it was possible." I picked up this book because I thought it was set in Venice but it isn't. It's about WANTING to go to Venice, lol

Settling down for my first Richard Russo novel: Bridge of Sighs. I'm surprised I can relate to any of the characters -- MC is white, male, married but childless, and lives in a small town -- but amazingly I can? #RichardRusso #booksky #amreading #novel

Sunday reading.
