Flashlight Worthy

@flwbooks

Recommending books so good, they'll keep you up past your bedtime. ;-)

So sad the website is down. Anyone out there still care about Flashlight Worthy Book Recommendations?


(5/5) That's all, folks. Remember, I tweet out book recommendations. Books so good, they'll keep you past your bedtime. Hence my name -- Flashlight Worthy Books. :-) flashlightworthybooks.com Take a look!


(4/5) Finally, I recently described this book as "a big hot mess of a novel". It's the story of a wildly popular young new author. Sort of a Hemingway meets... Wouk? Regardless of plot, it's a page-turner that will keep you up until the wee hours. amazon.com/dp/0316955175?…


(3/5) This book tells the story of a very, very bright boy growing up on a family farm in rural Georgia during the Great Depression. As an added bonus, it's not only one of my favorite books of all time, it's also one of the funniest books I've ever read. amazon.com/dp/0140072748?…


(2/5) First, Wallace Stegner's Crossing to Safety. I read this book in the Summer of '90. I think I went back and re-read one more time but ever since, I've been afraid to re-read it. What happens if it doesn't live up to my memories how beautiful it was? amazon.com/dp/037575931X?…


(1/5) And... I'm back! Can you believe it's been 9 years since I last substantively tweeted? I've decided to celebrate my triumphant return with a few of MY personal, favorite books... 🧵


Who would have thought that the account of becoming a beloved fictional Twitter wit could move me to tears? Becoming Duchess Goldblatt, by @duchessgoldblat (of course), is that good. Highly recommended.


New books list are coming next week but until then, my most recent: Books for Adventerous Kids -> bit.ly/V22P3c Enjoy!


How about you? Any favorite Danziger novels from your youth?


...But I prefer her "Can You Sue Your Parents for Malpractice?"


It’s National Pistachio Day. Which makes me think of Paula Danziger's The Pistachio Prescription...


Today's new book list is for adventerous kids or grown-ups with an adventersome heart -> bit.ly/V22P3c Take a look.


Stop everything! Hold the presses! I have a new Book List! Books for an Adventurous Childhood -> bit.ly/V22P3c Enjoy!

Just heard that Chernow's Hamilton bio is being turned into a Hip-Hop opera. Best you read it now. ;-) bit.ly/XGEoqA


Thanks to @TripFiction for that list of books about Venice. Love books? You can write a list too. [email protected] for details.


Ever want to visit Venice? Get in the mood with this new list of recommended books about Venice -> bit.ly/YJs5b2


I get a tiny commission on what you buy & can afford to bring you new book rec's all year long. Details here: bit.ly/GPsv5 Thanks!


If you like them, all I ask is that if you're shopping @ Amazon (for absolutely anything - not just books) you go thru my website. That way…
