Rebecca and Tara are winding down their summer reading with historical fiction, poetry, memoir, a graphic novel, short stories, and horror. Rebecca: - The Archive of Alternate Endings by Lindsey…
Well, I haven't quite started it.
I'm only like a couple pages in.
But it's called The Archive of Alternative Endings.
And I decided, not that my TBR isn't like a mile long, but I was thinking one night, I was like, no, I should look at some indie presses in the U.S.
So I found this book.
And it's basically, it says...
Based on confirmed sightings that extend as far back as 240 BCE, this book tracks and imagines sightings that occurred and will unfold during the years 1378 to 2365.
And then on the back, it says...
Perfect for fans of, and then they named some authors and it says the archive is a portrait of sibling love over the course of a millennium.
And they keep repeating like the siblings keep sort of showing up again, apparently.
Okay.
So it's
fiction.
It's not nonfiction.
Oh
yeah.
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
It's fiction.
And anyway, it's just kind of a quirky little story, I think.
And I just thought it's really different, something I normally wouldn't pick up, but it just kind of intrigued me.
Yeah, it
sounds fun.
