rockpools ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ I‘m stunned that Tender is your favourite though. Maybe I should follow @Cathythoughts lead & try a sample 🤔 3y
Cinfhen It‘s ROUGH @Cathythoughts 😬it involves some very disturbing ideas 3y
Cinfhen See my above comment @rockpools 👆🏽 3y
rockpools @Cinfhen Hmmmm. 3y
Cinfhen By the way @rockpools Piranesi is a VERY #GoogleyBook 3y
Cathythoughts Did you do audio Cindy for Tender ? I wonder what‘s best .. 🤔 3y
rockpools @Cinfhen Interesting! I didn‘t read it like that, but seeing other people‘s reviews, I see your point. I guess that gives me the perfect excuse to read it again. 3y
BarbaraBB You read this one fast! It‘s one of those books that DO stick with you I think. I just startedShuggie Bain 3y
Shuggie BainCinfhen I did do the audio for Tender @Cathythoughts and it was enthralling 🎧 3y
Lizpixie Right?? It‘s definitely a brain twisting novel🙌 3y
Cinfhen The audio for Piranesi was only 6 hours @BarbaraBB so it took 2 sittings! 3y
Cinfhen I think you‘re gonna like Shuggie @BarbaraBB give it some time💕 3y

TheAromaofBooks So did you read Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell? I've seen so many good reviews for this book, but I'm scared to pick up another Clarke book because I was in the minority over Strange & Norrell - I hated it & found the writing pompous & prosy - but I also don't like giving up on an author because of one book. I'm trying to figure out if Piranesi is similar in style or not. 3y
Cinfhen I haven‘t read Jonathan Strange @TheAromaofBooks BUT this book does feel “pompous & prosy” and more than half the time I felt like a moron because I had NO CLUE what I was reading 😬 3y
TheAromaofBooks hahaha well that's good to know! It was mostly weird because S&N sounded like it should totally be my jam. In general, I love books with complicated world-building & actually enjoy getting info-dumped. I also have a fondness for footnotes & parentheses, but for some reason Clarke's zillion footnotes in S&N made me want to throw her brick of a book at her head 😂 Maybe I'll check Piranesi out of the library & see how I feel about the first chapter 3y
Cinfhen Hahaha!! you might be pleased ( or not) to hear there are footnotes in this book too @TheAromaofBooks 😉 definitely try it, though!! It‘s a lovely, strange story 3y
Palimpsest 👏 👏 👏 😊 (edited) 3y
TrishB @TheAromaofBooks I hated S&N but loved this one 👍🏻 3y
Kalalalatja I really hope my library hold for this comes in soon! 3y
Kalalalatja And I seriously don‘t get how Tender can be your fave 😂😂😂 3y
TheAromaofBooks @TrishB - That's good to know!!! 3y
Cinfhen I know @Kalalalatja BUT it‘s the book that TOTALLY sucked me in and STAYED with me. I read it back in December and I‘m still thinking about it!!!! 3y
Kalalalatja And that is the sign of a great book 🙌 I‘m glad it worked so well for you, and your enthusiasm keeps me wondering what I missed 🤔 3y
