The Road to Station X

It's a giggle from start to finish. All through it, I kept thinking, 'If only that could be me.'
She is from a privileged background and I'm sure she could have sat out the war somewhere far safer. And privilege does open doors, but the girl, okay with a few friends, gets herself a job in factory. From there it becomes a real adventure and is so full of laughter.
She gets herself a job with the codebreakers at Bletchley Park. Unbeknownst to her, one day her godfather comes to visit. Amazing, don't you think? They wouldn't let any old Tom, Dick or Harry in there would they? Good job her godfather had a few connections: being, Vice Admiral, Lord Louis Mountbatten, Chief of Combined Operations, might have helped.
That made me laugh so much.
I so enjoyed this. I even put it under my pillow before sleep.


♥readingfiend♥ | 20 comments The Lindbergh Nanny - historical fiction about the kidnapping of Charle Lindbergh’s son)

Crush (Book 2 - Crave Series) - YA fantasy series about vampires and the like, very Twilight-esc but there are many differences.

I'm reading "Napoleon: A Life" by Andrew Roberts, it's really great. if you don't know much about him I think it would be a great place to start reading.

Elie Heart | 13 comments I’m reading Blind Man’s Bluff by Sherry Sontag. It is a a very good read if you like submarines or true stories or anything historical. In my personal opinion it is amazingly written. It is a story format of interviews with peoples experiences on submarines that aren’t really known. I am in the middle of it right now, and find it hard to stop reading it.

Sam K (zutara123) | 251 comments i've been reading babel by rf kuang


Justine 🦊🍂 | 15 comments I’m reading three at the moment.

Magpie by Elizabeth Day: This one is a psychological thriller about a seemingly perfect couple and their new roommate who starts to unravel their lives. It’s got some serious Single White Female vibes. So far, it’s super gripping and keeps you on the edge of your seat. Definitely recommend if you’re into suspenseful reads

Broadway Butterfly by Sara DiVello: Set in the 1920s, this true-crime novel dives into the unsolved murder of a flapper named Dot King. It’s packed with historical details, scandal, and a twisty plot that keeps you guessing. Loving the mix of real history and mystery

Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel: Just started this one, and it’s a deep dive into the life of Thomas Cromwell in the court of Henry VIII. The writing is rich and immersive, though it can be a bit dense at times. Excited to see where it goes!

Vashti | 5 comments The Good Killer by Harry Dolan was a great read for me, if you have Audible it’s included in your subscription.

I love Kim Harrison's books and have read most of them. I should check to see if there's any new ones. Enjoy

Hallie | 20 comments Try The Left-Handed Booksellers of London, by Garth Nix, and Illuminae, by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff.


message 20: by Arden (new)

Arden Lynn (Taylor's Version) | 9 comments I'm reading harry potter and the goblet of fire. after I finish reading this series I'm going to read one of my new books that are coming. The spellshop is one of them it's giving the perfect cozy vibes for this time of year, you should check it out


nocas is a fangirl  04 (nocass) "Powerless" took me out of book slum!! I'm onto "The Unhoneymooners"


message 22: by Doris (new)

Doris (dorisb) | 104 comments Alma response to Doris regarding Kim Harrison

I have a love / hate feel for the witchy series of Rachel Morgan, of which Fistful of Charms is one. I'm about 80% percent through it, and it's still worth reading, though the main character is wimpy? impulsive? self destructive? maybe all of the above. But she's also fiercely loyal, smart and talented. The book is from 2006.


message 23: by Doris (new)

Doris (dorisb) | 104 comments Hallie suggested Reading The Left-Handed Booksellers of London and I agree! That was a recent read of mine and is fantastic!

I also recommend any Terry Pratchett book.


message 24: by Escape to Books (new)

Escape to Books (escapetobooks) | 26 comments Ogres by Adrian Tchaikovsky is a short but thought provoking read and it's gotten me out of a slump before.


Closed for self healing  | 47 comments try audiobooks maybe you'll enjoy it .
there is SIMON STANHOPE youtube channel
Bitesized audio classics is an enjoyful experience


message 26: by sarah (new)

sarah | 288 comments Freedom writers. It’s very inspiring and heroic how these kids dared to make a change. How many of us are willing to do something to make a difference against all odds, I’ll tell you not many of us. We look the other way, we don’t go beyond our comfort zone or against popular status quo but these kids did and it’s awesome. Don’t just take my word but read it for yourself if you dare to challenge yourself. Happy reading y’all


message 27: by Adrian (new)

Adrian Trujillo | 5 comments Just finished Shadow and bone book 2. It was a struggle. Took long breaks since I just didn’t enjoy it. Glad I finished. Now I’m on book 3, Ruin and Rising. Crossing my fingers it’s better.


message 28: by Babs (new)

Babs Fernandez | 11 comments I'm physically reading Just For the Summer by Abby Jimenez, I am reading Quicksilver by Keri Lake on my Kindle and I'm listening to Nocticaida on audible.


message 29: by Martin (new)

Martin | 3 comments I go through these regularly. Read three or four in quick succession then nothing for three or four months! A lot to do with work, the weather, outside factors etc but I find that I tend to go back to a favourite author and even re read one I read a long time ago just to trigger an interest. Fatherland by Robert Harris has helped me do this a couple of times. One of my all time favourites. Good luck 👍

message 41: by Rory (new)

Rory | 4 comments The Virgin Suicides


message 42: by Mellisa (new)

Mellisa Tucker | 6 comments The Nightingale- Honor- In the time of our History
Those three are just a few if you want to feel real strong characters and emotion - if you want thriller or edge of your seat : Spy Master - A flicker in the Dark- The last Mrs. Parish-
If you want history but in a interesting good read
Then : All the Light we cannot see - The Women - On a Night of a Thousand Stars - The Lion Women of Tehran- and actually The Nightingale fits this. While they are not based on real actual events there is a lot of historical events in these novels and the stories feel so real . Every one of these books I couldn’t put down easily.


message 43: by Jenny Baker (new)

Jenny Baker (jennyrbaker) I just read The Teacher, Somewhere Beyond the Sea, and Home Front. All were four-star reads.

The Teacher by Freida McFadden Somewhere Beyond the Sea (Cerulean Chronicles, #2) by T.J. Klune Home Front by Kristin Hannah

Linda | 5 comments Shanice wrote: "Give me book suggestions to help me out my slum."

I just finished Ask for Andrea by Noelle W. Ihli. it's a bit of PG 13 spook-fest about a guy who stalks women from a dating app only to meet up with them, drug them, rape them, and kill them. Three of their ghosts stick around to try to stop him.


message 46: by Riya (new)

Riya Patel (riya_0408) | 14 comments I just completed The Striker by Ana Huang (though I won't recommend you to read this while you're in a slump). And currently I've started reading Twisted Heathens by J Rose


message 47: by Andrea (new)
