How funny if you did, and what a coincidence, especially considering you live in different countries. M

So far this challenge, my favorite books have been:


The Lost Girls by Heather Young is on my TBR so I'm glad to hear you liked it!

I've just finished Killers of the Flower Moon by David Grann which is my favourite so far. Really interesting but heartbreaking true crime story.

I got the feeling that the three different species were meant to represent the three different founders: the seahorse that created thousands of things but preferred the shadows (Ty), the octopus that wanted to touch and know everything but in a kind of innocent way (Bailey), and then the shark that just wanted to devour everything (Stenton).."

This is a really good point. It didn't occur to me while reading it but now that you point it out it sorta makes sense.

I've bought American Gods, which is set in the same world as Anansi Boys. I'm really hoping I don't have similar issues as I hate paying for a book that I can't get through!
