Lillian Boxfish Takes a Walk by Kathleen Rooney

5.0

I loved taking this New Year’s Eve walk with Lilian Boxfish! I wish I could inhabit her world and immerse myself in the New York of bygone days. This was definitely a more challenging read for me as I had to use my dictionary every few pages, but I loved how it engaged my brain while also capturing the 60 years of trends and fads. This isn’t a plot driven novel with a traditional story arc, but rather a walk down memory lane inspired by the real life advertising trailblazer Margaret Fishback. It’s different but so, so good! What a great final read of the year!
