And here is the 1929 Club! I’m excited that the club is starting again, and in my beloved 1920s. Pop your links to your 1929 book reviews in the comments here, and I’ll put together a list during the week.
For those new – anything published in 1929 qualifies, whether it’s fiction or non-fiction, whatever language it was published it etc. And your reviews can be on blogs, GoodReads, Instagram, wherever. If you don’t have anywhere to post a review, then feel free to put it in the comments.
Let’s see where the week takes us!
