I do know. I do know what it means to want. To-to only want-…
Hendrik looked startled, and she wanted to tell him-wanted to be done with it, make it someone else’s burden. No one knew of her heart and no one knew of her grief and it was torture.’

Paperback book titled “The Safekeep” by Yael van der Wouden. It has a sticker indicating it was shortlisted for the Women’s Prize for Fiction 2025. There’s also a mention that it was Booker Prize 2024 shortlisted. The cover includes a quote from Maggie O’Farrell, praising the book, and another endorsement from Sunday Times. The Penguin Books logo is visible at the bottom. The book cover image shows a dimly lit hallway inside a house. The hallway has wooden floors, several open doors along the corridor, and light coming from an unseen source, casting shadows. At the far end of the hallway, there appears to be a white object or shape on the floor—it could be something like a pillow or fabric, adding a sense of mystery to the scene.

Eva's laughter went quiet. She let herself be held a moment. She stroked Isabel's arms. She said, quiet, "Who are you?" She said, "Have you always been like this? Have you just been waiting to happen?" Chapter 10 #TheSafekeep

Yael van der Wouden – The Safekeep (2024). Debut novel set in the Netherlands in 1961. Isabel lives reclusively, observing rigid routines in her family home. Then her brother’s girlfriend Eva comes to stay and changes everything. Brilliant character portrait in mesmerising prose. #YaelVanDerWouden

The final part of the novel is more than a shift in perspectives. It’s a whole new world opening up, offering rationale to what the reader before only thought was the reality of the narrative. #TheSafeKeep #YaelVanDerWouden #BookChat #booksky

„In ihrem Haus“ von #yaelvanderwouden (übersetzt v. Stefanie Ochel) - ist #theperfectread!
Atmosphärisch, soghaft und überraschend. Perfekt komponiert, und mit hinreißenden Liebesszenen, obwohl es soviel mehr als eine Liebesgeschichte ist - große Empfehlung! #booksky #gutkindverlag

Being a mood reader led to ignoring my #tbr and starting this book instead:
The Safekeep by Yael Van der Wouden. 25% in and cannot put it down. Already started this some months ago as an audio, which didn't work for me. Glad I gave it another try!

My halfway through book review: I am loving The Safekeep by Yael van der Wouden so much. So very much. So much so that I might stay up way too late to finish reading.
