pan

Two old teachers spending the year (in the time of Arab Spring) in #Bahrain Their memories on this teaching year are too many times too patronising, and too naive so that I could enjoyed in their anecdotes.

Sense and Sensibility | Joanna Trollope

#bookreport @Cinfhen
Pretty disappointing week of reading....
Finished both, but both were decidedly #Mehnotyeah
- #unpopularopinion time... Although I liked the story itself, I found the writing of Erotic Stories to be pretty poor.
- After loving ‘Eligible‘, I had high hopes of this Austen Project novel...but this one just didn‘t work for me. The premise was not updated enough, so just didn‘t work in its modern day setting. 👎

squirrelbrain I didn‘t love Erotic Stories either; I liked it but that was all...nothing special. 4y

AlaMich I like the first half of Erotic Stories, but then it turned into a sort of mystery, as I recall, and just got weird. 4y

Cinfhen Disappointing about

Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows: A Novel

Cinfhen At least you completed it for bookclub😏what did the bookclub think about it🤔 4y

KarenUK @Cinfhen it‘s on Wednesday.... I‘ll be interested to see... 🤔 4y

Vengeful | V. E. Schwab

bailed

#unpopularopinion #MehNotYeah

About 20% in and I'm not really interested in the story. Shame, I like Schwab's work, but neither "Vicious" nor this book really speak to me.

DGRachel Oh no! I loved Vicious. It's the only one of Schwab's works I've read yet, and I recently started Vengeful. 5y

julesG @DGRachel It's certainly a case of "it's me, not you/the book". I just don't care for Victor et al. 5y

aeeklund I loved these books, but I could very easily see how they wouldn‘t be for everyone! 5y

BooknerdsLife Ah I started this one few months ago & couldn‘t get into it 😫🙈 I love Vicious but that one took me a few try before I could finally get into the story as well. I prefer This Savage Song duology. But Darker Shade Of Magic is still the best! 5y

Underwater Breathing | Cassandra Parkin

#HumpDayPost @MinDea

1) Toothpaste meme
2) the hook I just attached to the ceiling
3) Mystery? (it was quite a #MehNotYeah)
4) Never had Tater Tots, but we have something similar and we'll have it for dinner tomorrow
5) hardly ever do it, but I like it
