Fun idea, Carol!
Thanks Gina! 🌹
The Book Thief – an all time favourite. I’ve read it three times and loved it each time. I also loved The Clockmaker’s Daughter and Lincoln in the Bardo. I’d love to read Lincoln again.
The Book Thief is memorable….the movie adaptation is good as well.
Hi Carol, what an interesting way to classify books by their narrators! I have read some of these and must admit I haven’t given the narrator much thought until you pointed them out. Thanks for joining us for #WOYBS
Unusual narrators are fun and memorable!
