Auto-fiction in the au courant/Rachel Cusk bent about a female writer in her 50s. Beautifully written and just brimming with wit. I don’t have her gifts so I can’t begin to do it justice, but just read it. Didn’t actually realize this was the third in a trilogy (a repeat mistake for this guy). Felt even more atmospheric not having the context of the first two.

fun sweet emotional poetry book about an angel who comes down to earth and has a relationship with a man from the suburbs. the whole book is basically back and forth conversation, it's a super quick read, and it's so so good
