I love Ireland and everything connected to the Emerald Isle. I love music and movies, but, most of all, books! I usually read 3 or 4 books at the same time! .. sorry for the mistakes you're going to read, but I didn't study English at school.
Hi there! April seems to be a good month for reading Just finished Goethe's The elective affinities and The loser, which is a novel by Thomas Bernhard centered on a fictional relationship between pianist Glenn Gould and two of his fellow students. I didn't enjoy the former so much, but really loved the latter. (And once again, sorry for my poor English)
Hi
I'm reading a wonderful book, but it's rather disturbing sometimes.. Only ever yours by Louise O'Neill. I'm tired of fat shaming and stuff like that, so that was the book I needed
Hi there!
My book club is going to have a special event in a couple of months: we will celebrate the end of our "bookish season" with a dinner based on books we've read so far.
Being italian, we have plenty of italian fiction books with delicious recipies in them.. food becomes a sort of "character".
So, I was wondering.... have you ever read novels where dishes or recipes were described? Is food important in non italian fiction too?
Hello!!! I konow, it's been soooooooo long.. I'm sorry, I'm so busy. I've been reading a lot though, just finished The Sense of an Ending by Julian Barnes (highly recomanded) and Lexapros and Cons by Aaron Karo. I hope to be more active in this wonderful forum from now on
It's defiinitely too hot to read The Count of Montecristo, I need something a little lighter. So I'm reading the Sevenwaters Trilogy by Juliet Marillier. Let's see if it works
Hi there!
I've had such a busy time.. but I never quit reading. I read the complete Outlander series, written by Diana Gabaldon and I re-read Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell. For my book club I have to to start The Count of Montecristo.. but it's too hot for a book like this at the moment!
My reading club meetings are next week, I have to finish both the books: Animal Farm, Orwell, and House of dust and fog, written by Andre Dubus III. I'm not enjoyng the latter.. is it something wrong in me?
