Wow! Totally worth the hype :) I prefer her more recent works but this was riveting and I really enjoyed the #audiobook . Great palate cleanser from all the holiday stories. #BookspinBingo @TheAromaofBooks

⭐⭐⭐

The premise of this #audiobook caught my attention, bringing it onto my radar. However, the story itself bordered on boring for me. I did enjoy the twist and found myself more engaged in the later portion, but overall this was just a bit meh for me.

This had its funny moments but it was also a bit silly. But it‘s a quick listen on audiobook at 5 hours. I didn‘t realize it‘s part of a series but it doesn‘t detract from the story. 3⭐️ 80 points

“But Hester, I‘m years older than you are. You can‘t really—“
“That is—if you want me,” said Hester with sudden doubt.
“Oh, I want you!” said Arthur Calgary.

In this post-modern classic, nothing is what it seems. The main character, Nicholas Urfe, goes to teach on a Greek island, and is impressed by his erudite and art-loving host. But along the way, Nick becomes entangled in a labyrinth of truths and untruths, of the psychological games of a master trickster, which become increasingly dark and serious.

Ruthiella I found this one rather frustrating… 5d
BarbaraBB @Ruthiella Yes me too. The “twists” kept coming and it was all a bit tiresome but John Fowler writes so well 5d
Ruthiella I read and also admired rather than liked The French Lieutenant‘s Woman from him. My plan is to someday read The Collector and the call it a day with him as an author. 5d

I‘ve been here since the beginning, and I‘ll be here beyond the end, collecting tales from this wonderful and terrible world of water and ships and magic and ghosts.
And if you‘d like to hear another story, I‘ll have so many to tell you . . . one day.

What a delight! A story within a story, a story about stories, featuring Chih, a nonbinary story collecting cleric; weretigers; a mammoth upon which Chih rides up a mountain; sapphic love and poetry. Great #audiobook narration by Cindy Kay!

Listening to some more David Copperfield while making cookies for a cookie exchange tomorrow! Lots of things are happening in the story now and I plan to finish it up this week.

julieclair What a nice variety of subjects and genres! I loved Calm Christmas and plan to read it every year. And I, too, am hoping to catch up with AK. I haven‘t even started yet. 😳 1w
mcctrish Good luck with AK! I needed to be sick in bed to settle in with it ( it was a silver lining to being sick) I read Elegance of Hedgehogs that way too ( I found the beginning a slog and then I loved it ) 1w
Andrew65 Hope you have a good reading week. 1w
