The Loft | Marlen Haushofer
post image
Pickpick

An Austrian housewife, estranged from her husband and kids, keeps herself busy by tidying the house. One day, she receives her own diary entries from 20 years earlier, sent anonymously by mail.
These entries transport her back to a time away from her family, and the reader gradually learns more about why. But this is Marlen Haushofer, the author of the enigmatic The Wall—and this book is just as mysterious. Perhaps even more so.

This one was a little... fluffy. Maybe unnecessary, but there are definitely kernels of details that might be important later. #29-2025

This was a small read with 114pgs, but because I was sick it took me a bit to read. About a husband and dad that killed his wife and three kids in Australia in the 70's and how it was an almost perfect murder.

Tuesdays with Morrie | Mitch Albom
post image
Pickpick

A memoir rather than a traditional biography, but nonetheless a great story about an amazing man. I read this when I was in college over 20 years ago and felt compelled to revisit Morrie. Mitch Albom is a great story teller and the way he captures Morrie‘s warmth and wisdom makes it feel like you‘re sitting in the room with them. Book #29 in 2025

Her Naughty Holiday | Tiffany Reisz

A fun, funny read, though my main critique was that it read less like a book than a “Gilmore Girls“ screenplay. Probably a plus for some readers!

My August #Roll100 picks

#28 Hello Stranger (ebook)
#29 Black Sheep (Aardvark)
#14 Any BOTM (I‘m choosing Bear as it‘s our #CampList24 pick for the second half of August so I‘ll get it read!)

Although I‘ve only managed to read 2 books from my rolls the last few months, #Roll100 helps me finish some of my books #FromTBRList 📚💛📚

CatLass007 I‘m not a huge fan of romantic comedy, but I loved Hello, Stranger. Not your typical rom-com. 1y
Eggs I LOVED Hello Stranger 💗💗 1y
