Violet strained, searching for the sensation through the suffocating blackness. It wasn‘t the kind of thing she could see or hear, making it all the more difficult to pinpoint.

Giving this a go for my first 2026 read

Confederacy of Dunces | John Kennedy Toole

My first DNF for 2026. Satire just isn't my thing and I don't think it was going to seem any more amusing to me the further I read, so I abandoned @ 75 pgs

The stories in this book were fantastic (not to compare but this book satisfies what I was hoping to read in Bliss Montage). I picked this book up on a whim at Rose City Reads - a used bookstore in NE Portland - and I‘m so grateful that I gave it a chance. I already have the author‘s other books on hold at the library. Well written and thought-invoking stories - the whole lot.

#12daysof2025 Day 11: yes I only read it because of the new adaptation on Netflix. I am planning to reread next fall since I mostly listened through audiobook

TheEllieMo An absolute classic now

Our Evenings: A Novel | Alan Hollinghurst

Pickpick

The author tells the story of actor Dave Winn from difficult scholarship years in a 1960s English private school until the early 2020s. Half Burmese + Gay the story reflects on class, racial prejudice, + homophobia as well as ,through the character of nemesis Giles ( son of Daves sponsor for the scholarship, school bully + latterly obnoxious brexit promoting mp). I was thoroughly absorbed in this book despite its length + pace but the ending ⬇️

andrew61 The ending left me reeling. I also loved the relationship between Dave and his mum Avril. I could have read a book about her avril herself and her lesbian relationship with Esme. Overall a very enjoyable 1st read for 2026. 1h
