Thank you for sharing your reading list! Especially mentioning The Seven Moons of Maali Almeida. I've don't know anything about the Sri Lankan conflict even though my heritage is Indian; this has been a bucket list item for me. If you do find the original in English do let us know. I'm not a fan of stories where I can poke holes.
Some of my favorite adult reads (audiobooks) of the past year:
The 1619 Project by Nikole Hannah-Jones (which mind you I only started a few days ago, but had listened to the mini-podcast back in 2020)
Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner
This Is Ear Hustle: Unflinching Stories of Everyday Prison Life by Nigel Poor and Earlonne Woods
I have a lot more but they are Young Adult or younger. :-)
Happy New Year!
I would love to hear sometime about how you came to live in Nepal and the work you do there. If you feel like talking about it.
Thanks for sharing your list! I've heard good things about Crying in H Mart, so there's another reason to keep my eyes open for it. And just to clarify, I absolutely think Seven Moons is worth reading despite anything. It touches you, which I think is what is most important in the end.
