muggle not Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 I just downloaded from the library "Table for Two" by Amor Towles (of A gentleman in Moscow fame). I have only read 10 pages and already know that I am going to love this book. 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PYX Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 'The Power of Habit' by Charles Duhigg. I also have 'Love of Life' by Jack London on my desk. I felt like going back to the classics - there's just something timeless about them that really resonates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willoyd Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 (edited) Just finished Andrew Miller's Oxygen. Beautifully written, and as thoughtful as previous reads of his (Pure, Now We Shall Be Entirely Free) , but not as engaging, rather lacking in drive and focus. 3/6 stars. Moving on to Cheerful Weather for the Wedding by Julia Strachey, out of the Persephone Press stable. Edited August 25 by willoyd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

layla999 Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 "She and Her Cat" by Makoto Shinkai and Naruki Nagakawa is a comfort book, because of the cats and all of the different POVs inside one story and book Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lunababymoonchild Posted August 30 Author Share Posted August 30 Currently reading The Passage by Justin Cronin. It's over 900 pages long and is about vampires (apparently). Only up to chapter 4 and no sign of vampires just yet. It's the first part of a trilogy and I got it for 99p on Kindle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PYX Posted September 7 Share Posted September 7 I'm currently reading 'Ham on Rye'. It's a difficult read, but captivating because you see the protagonist developing, learning how to survive and not break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lunababymoonchild Posted Thursday at 06:17 PM Author Share Posted Thursday at 06:17 PM Out today I just had to start reading Herscht 00769 by László Krasznahorkai, one of my favourite authors. And when I read that the whole book is one long sentence I found myself just buying it. On page 5 and it’s amazing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppy Posted Saturday at 08:14 AM Share Posted Saturday at 08:14 AM Been listening to the audiobook of The Diary of a Nobody by George and Weedon Grossmith. Narrated by Frederick Davidson who did it brilliantly. His voice reminds me of Victor Meldrew from One Foot In the Grave 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
