Schweblin fan here! I highly recommend the first book of hers I've read, Fever Dream. I still think nearly weekly (previously daily) about the concept of "the rescue distance" from the (short) book. In fact, a couple of years after I read Fever Dream in 2018ish, Valeria Luiselli used the same phrase in Lost Children Archive. I also recently made my husband read Fever Dream and he also loved it. A lot of tension. And I'll be reading Almada's Not a River very soon, looking forward to it after your words on it.
love this recommendation!! fever dream has been on my list for awhile ... the cover always calls me! haven't read lost children archive yet either 😓 thank you!
I really like it! good if you like sweet scents. I haven't tried the dedcool laundry detergent bc I worry it will be irritating lol but I would love my clothes to smell that good
Your happy list made me happy! I'm right-handed but have been a long-time lover of the Sharpie S-Gel pen, and even though they are kind of ugly, I just can't quit how glidey their ink is!

I keep hearing about Mochi Milk! Dedcool also has good laundry detergent scents.

The weight and smell of a book is truly amazing. Also I love Daisy Wild

Definitely recommend Fever Dream by Schweblin.
