Book Notes

Reading Amock

I love this one :spin:

[lazzbo]

I have no good suggestions.

Finished Disobedience by Naomi Alderman which I really enjoyed. Orthodox Judaism still fascinates me.

Now for Richard Osman. :spin:

[Pippedydeadeye]

Disobedience is a brilliant book, I loved it.

I do think mock book club works as the book club is the thing, but I also don’t actually care enough to argue for it as a title. I was trying to help avoid “Beab’s Book Burblings 2023: A Thread”. ;)

I see that Rachel Weisz bought the rights to it, I'd love to see it on screen. Which reminds me that I want to read Life After Life so I can watch it on iPlayer.

Mock Book-Club?

I have read my 100 now. I have Osman on order but it won't come until March. I'm uninspired by my other library reads so I might push the boat out and buy something.

[Ismee]

I've managed 39 books this year, my target was 30.

I'm quite pleased with that. I am about a quarter of the way through The Twyford Code but don't think I'll manage to finish it in time to make it 40 books.

[Pippedydeadeye]

There’s no way I’ll finish my current book by Saturday to hit 63. I opened it & groaned at the tight, tiny font. It’s a biography of DH Lawrence, Burning Man.

[Disco]

An ex colleague was adamant her grandfather had been romatically involved with DH Lawrence. Love letters were found when her grandfather died.

[Pippedydeadeye]

It’s entirely possible!

[Annabella]

I read The Golden Couple which was an average thriller. Now reading Tarnished by Julia Crouch about a girl brought up by her grandmother as her mum died and dad's whereabouts unknown. Staring to look like dad involved with some dodgy business.

[Estrella]

I read Carrie Soto yesterday. It wasn’t her best. I’m now reading the newest Rachel one by Marian Keyes which is good.

[lazzbo]

Finished The Bullet That Missed. Easy reading at its finest, that.

Now for Life After Life.

[Smunder Woman]

I read The School for Good Mothers yesterday. It was very good, but also enraged me a lot.

[Epponnee Rae]

I am trying to finish my last book of the year (an NK Jemisin) but it’s surprisingly long and I’m only 40% through it!

[Ismee]

My 40th book (The Twyford code) is annoying me a bit but I am over 60% through it so I think I might finish it before the end of the year.

[Chicky]

I finally finished the new Strike book which has taken me forever. I’m now on 98 for the year, I’m about 60% through my current kindle book so I’m going to have to knock off an Agatha Christie tomorrow after my sister goes.

[Kenickie]

I read The School for Good Mothers yesterday. It was very good, but also enraged me a lot.

I've just started this.

[lazzbo]

I think it's my book of the year.
