On a sunbeam was amazing, I loved it so much. It’s a webcomic originally and the art is just breathtaking beautiful online which unfortunately I think didn’t translate as well in printed form but still beautiful.

Roofstaat is misschien wel een goeie voor Nederlandse geschiedenis! Verder is Anton de Kom fantastisch! En voor fictie: Astrid Roemer is een in haar soort, echt heel bijzonder proza. Ook Dubbelspel van Frank Martinus is erg goed.

I don't think I've ever been so mindblown by a book as I was reading Thunderhead. The series as a whole I feel isn't perfect but what Neil Shusterman did with Thunderhead is honestly so incredible I still can't wrap my head around it.

I'm glad you decided to catch up with what you read *then* with how you look *now* - you're looking gorgeous! 💕 I loved The Water Cure as well and still need to get to her most recent book. And I've been looking for more graphic fiction so On a Sunbeam sounds great. Happy Christmas to you! 🎄

if you do get a dutch equivalent of "Black and British" I'd love to hear it too - I know there is one book out there called "Wit Huiswerk" but from what I've heard it doesn't really cover the more ancient histories (Although I'm not sure since I haven't had a chance to pick it up yet).

Have you read A Song For a New Day by Sarah Pinsker? It's also about a pandemic and the incorporation of the online world in our real lives (which we've seen with Covid).

You're a murderino!?!? Ahh I had no idea! SSDGM! The Five was okay for me.. I feel like I didn't know enough about Jack and the novel focused so much on the women which is great I just wish I'd researched the case more in order to connect with it better if that makes sense?

I read that this year, but it wasn't quite for me! But I think I might just not like graphic memoirs in general. Have you read any of her other graphic novels?
