I've added Denison Avenue Denison Avenue by Christina Wong by Christina Wong to my poetry heading. It's not all poetry, but is rather a story. I'd compare it to the work of Elizabeth Acevedo. There is a free flow at times but there are elements of poetry as you go through it. Interesting writing technique. 4.0 stars

Pam (bluegrasspam) | 231 comments I like this idea for a challenge! I might do something like it (maybe books that are not novels) in 2025. I’m curious what plays you might read. That’s a tough one for me. Essays are also.

I don't know if I'll manage any plays this time. I find them difficult at the best of times.
