Our Evenings: A Novel | Alan Hollinghurst
post image

Was very happy with my scores from the Little Free Library on the way to ballet last night. The 2 kids books are super cute and I didn‘t get to see the tagged author at the Sydney Writer‘s Festival this year so this book was a very pleasant surprise. It was pointe class last night and my big toe nail is dying making everything extra painful however I don‘t look as though I‘m in pain in the video. Ah the ballet illusion! 💛

I love the ancient Greeks and their gods and heroes, so I don‘t know why it took so long for me to pick this up. I struggled for the first few chapters, but I‘m so glad I persevered. I fell into the story utterly and completely and devoured it. The storytelling is nothing short of beautiful ❤️

“Yes, he thought maybe he mattered after all, a lesson in the unexpected. Wasn‘t that the point? Wasn‘t that the great answer to the mystery of life? To make the most of what you have while you have it, the good and the bad, the beautiful and the ugly. In death, Wallace had never felt more alive.”

The old Hollywood backdrop was fun, but the real joy was falling under the spell of the titular star.

Felso I‘ve had this book for ages, just haven‘t got to it yet. I moved it up on the TBR pile. 2d
LadyCait84 @Felso I was in a similar boat and finally got to it because I needed to make space on my bookshelf for newer purchases! Am really glad I picked it up at last. The character of Evelyn isn‘t always (often?) likable, but she‘s always captivating. 2d

#hyggehour has me finishing this graphic novel series alongside Hazel. Apparently there‘s going to be a sixth one! I can‘t wait.

Really glad the #QueerBC turned me onto this series and author. I love it.

Volume 4 of Heartstopper ❤️

Touches on mental health issues and coming out to family as a queer teen. Very heartwarming.

BarbaraBB You‘re on a roll 😀 2d
Kitta @BarbaraBB haha I am! It was so heartwarming. I also started tilt and have been loving that though. Being between jobs has meant for lots of reading time. 😂 2d
BarbaraBB Perfect for the time being! I do have a copy of the first heartstoppers and I wasn‘t drawn to it at all but now I feel I need to pick it up soon! 2d
Kitta @BarbaraBB ooh read it!! And we can discuss lol it‘s a quick read since it‘s a graphic novel. 2d

Will this be the month that I do #roll100 successfully?

Or will this be like every other month where I diligently avoid the list and mood read random stuff instead?

These are all high priority reads so maybe I shall do it 👀

Ruthiella Yes! It will be! 👍 4d
Jari-chan The Night Circus is so beautiful ❤️ 4d
Susanita You can do it! 4d

uncommonlycozies 3 books is so realistic! I‘ll be looking for your thoughts on The Night Circus. I‘ve been debating picking that one up from my library for a while. Enjoy your reads ☺️ 3d

A quick read about very messy people in a very messy situation (largely of their own making).

BkClubCare I loved this one! 2d
