panThe pace of this story set in 1880s Burma is languorous. It is understandable without being enjoyable. The characters were flat. Even the eccentric wasn‘t all that interesting. And the ending. After being drug through each tool and technique for tuning pianos, it ended on a completely discordant note.

Not book related at all but so proud of this kid for placing 3rd in Piano during his first ever Music Festival.

Ok now I have six of these figures. Probably enough, right? They should make an Amelie one, the red-head from Run Lola Run, Clementine from Eternal Sunshine of the spotless Mind😉. It‘s a good thing plenty of them just don‘t appeal to meee.

It's been a Simon & Garfunkel kind of day. 🎶#feelingroovy🎶
pickA great companion for a Mediterranean trip. August Blue is alluring, hard to put down and sprinkled with witty humour and biting social commentary. I have a sense that a little too much goes left unsaid to really understand what‘s going on, and I didn‘t get particularly invested in Elsa‘s narrative; we join her following THAT performance when she is trying to redefine and reassess who she is. Ultimately the dreamlike prose pulled me along. 7/10
