PattyMacDotComma | 1260 comments August 25, 1983 is a surreal short story by the Argentinian master, Jorge Luis Borges. A dream within a dream? Read it - it's intriguing!

PattyMacDotComma | 1260 comments Ah, Ireland and a new Tana French mystery! Retired Chicago cop Cal Hooper can't avoid trouble, even in a foreign rural village. The Hunter is a follow-up to The Searcher and equally excellent as a standalone.

Woman Reading  (is away exploring) | 577 comments Big Sister, Little Sister, Red Sister Three Women at the Heart of Twentieth-Century China by Jung Chang
Big Sister, Little Sister, Red Sister: Three Women at the Heart of Twentieth-Century China

An inside look at the personality cults of two major figures in China's history, glamor, glitz, war profiteering, political machinations -- this book was not what I had expected.

Woman Reading  (is away exploring) | 577 comments King of Scars (King of Scars, #1) by Leigh Bardugo King of Scars

Leigh Bardugo returns to the Grishaverse with a duology on the multi-talented, silver-tongued Nikolai Lantsov. I really liked Nikolai who had been introduced in Siege and Storm and provided much needed humor. Because of my curiosity about his future, I skipped past the Six of Crows duology which is set between Alina Starkov's trilogy and Nikolai's novels.

Woman Reading  (is away exploring) | 577 comments Rule of Wolves (King of Scars, #2) by Leigh Bardugo
Rule of Wolves is the "final" book in Nikolai Lantsov's journey as King of Ravka.


Leigh Bardugo had left her ending with enough room to suggest a sequel. Does she have any plans to return to the Grishaverse?
