Notes on Literature
So, I've been trying to engage more closely with what I read, and the easiest way I've found is to write a review every so often, and an arbitrary constraint I adhere to when writing these reviews is to make it a point to refer to the historical or political circumstances under which the book was written and published, or to another text that resonates with it. This method often takes me down rabbit holes I wasn't quite anticipating and well, I'm dragging you down with me.
Key:
- 📕 indicates a work of non-fiction
- 📘 indicates a work of fiction
- 📗 indicates general thoughts on an author or genre
- 🐛 indicates that the book was read as part of bookbug
