Two books to add to your reading list 💙📖📚
✨Frida Slattery As Herself by Ana Kinsella
When Frida Slattery and John Reddan meet in a Dublin pub in 2006, neither can imagine how they will come to shape and define each other’s lives. Frida is struggling to launch her acting career, while John is already gaining a name for himself as a director. From the first, they see in each other potential and the chance to create work that matters, though the lines between collaboration and exploitation, friendship and desire will prove dangerously slippery. Their story is told through the plays they make together and the time they spend apart.
✨No Such Thing As Monday by Siân Hughes
When Steffie’s violent, bullying father dies suddenly, it sparks a reckoning that cracks open her past. Haunted by what happened to her sister when they were children, large fragments of which she can’t fully remember, Steffie is stuck in a loop of self-destruction, defiance, and shame. What follows is an unexpectedly redemptive journey of a woman trying to piece herself together in a world that failed to make space for her.
Happy reading 💕
