What are you reading?

I'm now reading the latest Lee Child Jack Reacher story, Midnight Line(?) As a palette cleanser between proper books.

Sci fi space opera, Mission of Honor, David Weber.

Pulitzer-Price Winner 2015 All the Light You Cannot See by Anthony Doerr - in Swedish Ljuset vi inte ser - really is a great novel, "Stunningly beautiful" (The New York Times), "A masterpiece" (Library Journal).

I'm half-way through the story and I love every sentence.

It's heartbreaking and beautiful.

The Lonely City: Adventures in the Art of Being Alone, by Olivia Laing

"... Humane, provocative and deeply moving, The Lonely City is about the spaces between people and the things that draw them together, about sexuality, mortality and the magical possibilities of art..."

Is Frederick Forsyth a favourite of yours? If so, I think you will enjoy 'Avenger' (2004). I have read it three times at least and I never get tired of it - I think it's because I love heroes.

I have not, but will certainly look into it. Thanks.

I'm glad if you do - it's really entertaining and you learn things too. 🙂

I'm putting this book aside for a while to read Dennis Lehane's latest book 'Since We Fell' (2017) - irresistable.

I’m reviewing The Playmaker by Thomas Keneally. I read it many years ago and this revisit is enjoyable.

Manfredi: Dionysos Tyrann von Syrakus

orig Italian: Il Tiranno

A quite good historic novel on the famous ruler.

Sara Omar: Dødevaskeren
and
Kirsten Thorup: Erindring om kærligheden.

'An Exclusive Love' by Johanna Adorján

Just picked up Avenger by Frederick Forsyth, from my local library.
