Washington Square, New York City, Gelatin silver print (c. 1960) by Dave Heath

Dave Heath’s expressive and emotionally charged photographs capture intimate moments of beauty and loss, love and alienation, with lone figures gazing into the distance, urban scenes of heightened sensation and faces frozen in time.

Top 5 books read this year, please?

The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion Vol. 1-7 by Beth Brower: These books are just so much fun. They sit perfectly in my sweet spot of historical light fiction, and there's so much humor and heart and so many good characters. Maybe they're not the best books I've read this year, but they may be the only ones tempting me to buy copies for my shelf.

Washington Square and Daisy Miller by Henry James: Two short, sad, delicately-drawn novellas that may have added another author to my list of favorite classic writers.

Team of Rivals by Doris Kearns Goodwin: This book started my obsession with Lincoln's Cabinet. I can't in good conscience put it lower (despite a minor qualm that prevents me from seeking out the full version). I'm also going to cheat and include Destiny of the Republic by Candace Millard, which provided me my other history niche of this year about President Garfield and his assassination. And My Dear President for all the fascinating letters offering new insight into the lives of American presidents and their wives.

The Heir of Redclyffe by Charlotte Yonge: Despite some serious issues with the story, this one had some of my favorite characters of the year, and they're going to stick with me for a long time.

Desire and The Good Comrade by Una Lucy Silsberrad: Maybe objectively not the best or even my favorites--I have problems with the plot of both--but I love how she writes Edwardian women trying to make their way in the world and their relationships with men who make them rethink the way they approach the world, and she's another entry on the list of favorite authors discovered this year.

#answered asks #books #valiantarcher #note the clever way in which i included fifteen books on my top five list #i am very sneaky and also bad at making decisions #if i have to pick one from each entry it's #volume 4 #team of rivals #washington square #the heir of redclyffe #and desire #but the other ones round out what i like about each author or category that elevates it on the favorites list #beyond what each book could achieve alone #because there are lots of books that could go on the list #so i prioritized ones that fit into a wider trend #edit: oh actually i was wrong i did buy copies of the james novellas for my shelf #though that's mostly because i first found both of them in the library used book shop #decided to rent instead of buy #and then decided i liked them enough to buy the volume #so they beat out emma m lion on the 'on my shelf' category but not quite in the 'i need them on my shelf' category
