BAW - week 11

[Robin]

Sorry I missed week 10 somehow. Armchair traveling through South America and highlighting books from that continent. For this week picked three books about venezuela and hugo chavez. Also doing a readalong of Hopscotch by Julio Cortazar.

I finished Tana French's The Likeness. So good!

I'm reading The Master and Margarita by Mikhail Bulgakov. So far it is quite quirky and I'm having to think hard to follow it (not a bad thing) but it certainly has promise and many excellent reviews!

Finished Pride and Prejudice (for the umpteenth time) and now onto Oliver Twist. I have been reading an abridged version to the boys, so I had a preview and am familiar with the story from movies.

Also still slogging through the Iliad. I am going to make this a priority and try and get through a chapter a day.

For my Newbery books, I finished Number the Stars and am now listening to Surviving the Applewhites on audio.
