Bridget, I don’t even know where to begin except as a fellow bibliophile and voracious reader since age 4, I resonated with every word. Nothing excites me more than connecting with another reader’s reader. I, too, care nothing for beach reads or the book du jour touted by whomever. I’ll be the judge, thank you very much - and this is why life-changing books and authors find me with astonishing frequency. I had the honor of interviewing Rene Denfeld and can even call her a friend - we’re kindred souls - and I instantly recognized you as one of a kind and a compadre. There’s nothing I love more than sharing a good book - in this case, Pulitzer worthy. Thank you for the shout out.
This is the best part of Substack. Meeting you has been a highlight and inspiration and I'm so thankful. So much love and respect to you. Thank you for being one of the real ones. 🖤

That was beautifully written and a compelling case to go buy the book.
I have a friend who went out and bought it on this recommendation— and finished it in 2 days.
I'm feeling quite privileged and not so secretly feeling a part of your kindred spirits❣️"Write on" AND Thank you for your blunt honesty... Aunt Deb
