I just ordered it from my library. I liked REMAINS OF THE DAY. And THE BURIED GIANT sounds good, too. There's something to be said for a quiet book. Loved your description with "muted." And guess what? I may be reviewing a YA fantasy (don't fall off you chair, Ellen!) in November: THE LIE TREE by Frances Hardinge. I have the British version. Fantasy! This is how you've influenced me, Ellen!Barriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04678698296265168217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3276247486259230392.post-62826995991199967212016-09-09T10:39:05.441-04:002016-09-09T10:39:05.441-04:00I've had personal experience with Alzheimers. ...I've had personal experience with Alzheimers.
