#BookCoverChallenge
Day 50.
Here I will note 365 books (or as many as I will have before I get tired) that have shaped my taste in literature. No explanations, no reviews. Just the cover of the book.
I do not challenge anyone. You are all welcome to take part.

#backpackEurope @JenP @BookwormM @Pippitypip @Kristelh Looking out from Yad Vashem, Israel's official memorial to the victims of the Holocaust. No pictures were allowed inside. Life changing tour from the granddaughter of a survivor. The Kindly Ones, I am on track with my reading. I liked the first 100 pages but have lost interest in the book. I hope it gets better for me. #1001books #reading1001

I have only just started to read this book but it is just so appropriate after visiting Dresden yesterday. Many of the magnificent buildings were left blackened by the firestorm in 1945. I had also noticed the discreet brass plaques amongst the cobblestones of Salzburg commemorating Jewish people who had once lived there. #backpackEurope @JenP @BookwormM

Finally - it took a while to finish this one. With such a heavy subject matter, I'm sure I'll still be thinking about it in the days to come.

CAGirlReading I still think about this one, I think this had to be one of the most disturbing books I have ever read. However, it was beautifully written in its own way... 8y
Tanner @CAGirlReading - I agree, I certainly couldn't call it an enjoyable read. And the beautiful prose in some sections made it all the more disturbing. 8y
