This debut novel by Joelle Taylor is pretty special. The Night Alphabet was published in the UK in February 2024.

I hope you love it as much as I did.

I'm hoping to get to this in June. It sounds brilliant; thanks for sharing.

@scallydandlingaboutthebook2711 4 месяца назад

Definitely worth your time Katja.

This sounds fascinating, Ros. I love novels in linked stories. On the TBR it goes!

@scallydandlingaboutthebook2711 4 месяца назад

I thought it was tremendous.

@readandre-read 4 месяца назад

Yesssss, Ros! Everything about this sounds very cool and up my alley. Thanks for the detailed review!

@scallydandlingaboutthebook2711 4 месяца назад

Your sort of book I think. One of those that won't suit everyone but the right readers will love.

@lindysmagpiereads 4 месяца назад

I feel the same way as Angelia: this sounds right up my alley. I hope it will find a North American publisher.

So pleased to see another glowing review for this one. I have been so excited for this since I heard about the premise, and it didn't disappoint me. I loved it *so* much and definitely a contender for one of my favourite books of the year. Great review (and fair to warn people it might not be for everyone 😅).

@scallydandlingaboutthebook2711 4 месяца назад

Oh I'm thrilled to hear you loved it too. I am not hearing and seeing enough about it. I imagine it may get a look in on The Republic of Consciousness Prize. Have you read any of her poetry? I saw her perform C+nto and Othered Poems last summer and was blown away.

@benreadsgood 4 месяца назад

@@scallydandlingaboutthebook2711 I've not read her poetry, but I'm not a huge reader of poetry (definitely a me-problem!) But maybe I should. I was so convinced this would win the Women's Prize as it's such a startling and original book of stories about women. But alas. Hoping it will pop up on some other prize lists this year though - seems like Goldsmith's catnip to me, and dare I hope for the Booker?! 🤞

@MarilynMayaMendoza 4 месяца назад

Hello Roz, even though I think this is not my kind of book I immensely enjoyed you talking about it. Aloha friend.

@scallydandlingaboutthebook2711 4 месяца назад

That's a kind thing to say.

@Bessie-On-Wheels 4 месяца назад

I am 2 thirds of the way through and loving it so much but had to put it down for a rest as so dark. Never had to put down I am so enjoying before which makes it special in a way. Means the writing is excellent. I want to finish it at some point so I can put it in my top books of year. Gutter Girls is my favourite story so far.

@scallydandlingaboutthebook2711 4 месяца назад

I can imagine needing a break Kate. It is like a very rich meal. Gutter Girls was brilliant. Not sure I could choose a favourite though.
