Salvage The Bones is one of my favorite novels of all time. I found that Esch leans to mother from her older brother, where the only being he 'mothers' is his fighter dog. The contrast between the dog being a fighting dog, and Skeet taking such gentle care of her, is yet another touch to motherhood, proving that even the strongest woman (China) deserves to be taken care of in the most gentle way imaginable and that doing this will never undermine her power.
Absolutely! I think Skeet is probably the most motherly figure of the whole book, interestingly enough. But China is definitely the embodiment of pure motherhood, dangerous and unfiltered, untaught in some ways…
Oh that I could sit on this sunny day and read these one after the other after the other. The overview and food pairing are enough for now. Thank you. Back to writing.

Arg. Now I want to read it again!
I’m dying to re-read as well so I can full on annotate it next time!! Definitely a book I will never forget.
Had my mouth and my mind watering!
Thanks, that makes me very happy 😁
Various books by or about Marcus Aurelius, A Man Called Ove and The Overstory.
I was meant to finish reading the last one a few weeks ago but then I started ‘Knife’ and had to finish that. Amazing book
Thank you for all those recommendations 😍 I’ve been meaning to read The Overstory for a long time now, I’m looking forward to it!
