Tamara Agha-Jaffar | 1415 comments Finished Once Upon a River by Diane Setterfield.
She's a gifted writer and it's a wonderful book.
It flooded me with a lot of personal memories of growing up in England with a tributary of the River Thames flowing at the bottom of our garden.

Chrissie I find it difficult to read Little Boy from start to finish. It is a book of poetry, a mix of philosophizing and autobiographical facts.

I have stuck in a short story--The Daughters of the Moon by Italo Calvino, an author I have wanted to test for a very long time.

PattyMacDotComma It's over-the-top adrenaline, action, and high-tech when Gregg Hurwitz brings Orphan X, aka the Nowhere Man, Out of the Dark and pits him against US President Jonathan Bennett.
Out of the Dark (Orphan X, #4) by Gregg Hurwitz 4★ Link to my review (which has no cracks about the current administration, tempting though it was)

PattyMacDotComma I have finally read the very first Disc World book, The Colour of Magic, by the much-loved, late Terry Pratchett, whose phenomenal output earned him a knighthood. What an absolute romp of a book!

PattyMacDotComma Tales From Nature: Bee by Magali Attiogbé is a sweet little picture book for toddlers. Big, simple, cheerful illustrations that show the life-cycle of a bee.

Tamara Agha-Jaffar | 1415 comments Finished Outline by Rachel Cusk.

An unusual novel consisting of a series of conversations which are akin to soliloquies or monologues with virtually no plot. Maybe not for everyone, especially if you like a lot of action in your novels, but I thought it was brilliant.

Chrissie I really enjoyed In Pieces by Sally Field. It is not your typical actress autobiography; it goes into why she is the person she it. She has an unpretentious voice that is a delight to listen to.
