I am so happy to have stumbled upon The Book Chat at Sweet Green Tangerine. It should be obvious that I love books, and talking about them, so this is the perfect weekly link-up for me!
This week's question is quite simple:
Right now, I am reading THE SENSE OF AN ENDING BY JULIAN BARNES. It's one of those books that I've been eyeing at the bookstore for what feels like forever. I had always heard that it was good, but didn't actually know what the story was about. On a whim, I decided to finally try it and I'm really enjoying it (and should be finished it by the end of the day).

It's a short book, a reflective piece on one man's life and how certain decisions and incidents from your past come back to create consequences in the future. I love the philosophical ponderings about our understanding of time. The book forces you to ask questions about the "proper" way to spend time, how to ensure we have a fulfilling life before time catches up to us.
I've been thinking a lot about time, about life, and success, so it seems appropriate that I'm reading this book now. I love when a book appears at exactly the right moment.
