"It turned into a blandly sweet smell, like milk, at her navel, melted into spice in the creases of her elbows, then cocoa at her neck."
- White is for Witching, Helen Oyeyemi

Scent is underrepresented in good literature.

@CanICallYouSchmitty I don't read just one book either. Currently, I'm actively reading 6:
#Paradise by #ToniMorrison
#MrFox by #HelenOyeyemi
#TheColorPurple by #AliceWalker
#TheFireKeepersDaughter by #AngelineBoulley
#Uglies by #ScottWesterfeld

#bookstodon seven authors:

#jamesjoyce
#jorgeluisborges
#carmenmariamachado
#ItaloCalvino
#fyodordostoevsky
#helenoyeyemi
#alainrobbegrillet

Could add at least seven more easily (eg #NadiaBulkin), but let’s start with that.

Love the idea @EJBrand! Who are 5-7 of your favorite authors? Add them as hashtags so we can find each other, boost this, share your own, etc.

Some of mine are:
#AngelaCarter (always)
#MichèleRoberts
#SarahWaters
#HelenOyeyemi
#BernardineEvaristo

And when I look at #EarlyModernTheatre, the list would include:
#ChristopherMarlowe
#ThomasMiddleton
#JohnFletcher
#JohnMarston
#PhilipMassinger
