Trust - Hernan Diaz

Hey readers!  I read this book during the Christmas holidays as part of our book club topic, which was "Books that won or were nominated to international prizes during the last ten years". I decided to read Trust as it was a Pulitzer prize co-winner in 2023, shared with Damon Copperhead .  I always have a lot of faith in the Pulitzer Prize, because I always find that the writing of the winners actually is  really good - and yes, I am a huge Donna Tartt fan and can't forget her  Goldfinch . I only heard good things about this one, therefore I decided to give it a chance.  As you'll see, I loved this book very much. It's one of the best I've read in 2024 and a perfect way to end the year.  In the following stream of words, I'll try to explain what the book gave me, since it's stuck in my memory and heart. I'll do my best to avoid spoilers - some are inevitable though, but I'll try to be on my best behaviour. Keep in mind this is a book to read no...
