This #Chunkster has taken me a while, but I really enjoyed it!
A historical novel mixed with some folklore, based on the ill fated Franklin expedition to find the north west passage.
I watched the tv show a while ago which was amazing, so I am glad I have finally managed to read it :)

I have a feeling that I‘ll do better in March, but February wasn‘t too bad of a reading month. My biggest success was finishing Anna Karenina for the #KareninaWinter buddy read. Better late than never! #chunkster 😅
(March 2, 2025)

I was planning on doing a combined book report/weekly forecast post, but there are too many books for a single coherent photo!

So this week‘s #BookReport: finished 4 books started earlier this month:
Sea of Tranquility 8/10
Book Lovers 7/10
Cley 6/10
Small World 7.5/10

And read a further 73 pages of the #Chunkster The Bonfire of the Vanities

"... it's all very well planning what you will do in six months, what you will do in a year, but it's no good at all if you don't have a plan for tomorrow."
I thought this was fine. I waited too long to read it and it has won so many awards, it could never live up to the hype.
Overall I love how readable it was, and even with 739 Thomas's it was easy to keep track of who was who, credit to Mandel that is no easy feat.
Do I think Cromwell needed?

ChaoticMissAdventures 3 books of this length? Not really. While this book was interesting and readable I feel finished and probably will not read the others. It is hard with historical fiction. The reader feels a bit like a psychic knowing what is to come, wanting to warn the characters. This was a good pick for a @thearomaofbooks #bookspin #chunkster and #bookedintime @Cuilin 2mo
Cuilin I agree with the psychic vibes and wanting to influence the path characters are on, especially book 3 in this series. 2mo
ChaoticMissAdventures @Cuilin I can imagine!! The nooooo not her thoughts and watching him stumble to his doom! 2mo
Cuilin @ChaoticMissAdventures maybe the genre we should be reading is the speculative fiction “alternate history“ 😆 2mo
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 2mo

I‘ll be living with Olga for awhile. (10 weeks as a read along) Slow going because I have to make a note or look up a word every other minute.

What a ride! Halfway thru Book 2 and I‘m a bit nonplussed by the mysticism of Kabbalists. “The air is full of eyes…” 👀👀👀👀

Leftcoastzen Truly a #Chunkster ! Have it , haven‘t read 2mo
Tamra @Leftcoastzen definitely! I think it does help to be reading with others on a schedule. 2mo
