pickThis book follows Iskat from her early days as a Jedi Padawan to her conversion to Inquisitor under the Empire. It's good, but as usual, Dawson likes her sad endings 🖤

I do enjoy an Olivia Dade romance! And this one's got a #Voyage thrown in.

It was not the amount you gave that counted, but simply the gesture of giving.
"I wanted to settle an old debt with time. I had discovered that walking provided a way to slow it down. The alchemy of travel thickens seconds: those spent on the road passed less quickly than others." #memoir #translatednonfiction
"It's incredible how much mankind hogs its own attention. The presence of others makes the world fade out. Solitude is this reconquest of the enjoyment of things." #memoir #translatednonfiction
pickI don't think I'll ever again encounter so many poetic ways to refer to a frozen lake.
Love that the focus was at least 50% on the nature around the cabin, and 20% on the books being read during the six month stay.
The memoir is primarily a meditation on the uses and detractions of a hermitage, whether it's a necessary reprieve, a revolutionary act or just an escape from the world. Gets a bit weird about women and politics, though. FYI. #memoir
I know that this book is a easy read for me and I could spend my time on a more challenging book. This is a amazing read it has a true story and to be honest I‘m not a nonfiction type of person I like fiction books but this book has my full attention

In less than 200 pages, Sylvain Tesson really offers a feel of the horrors, hunger, and sufferings experienced by the soldiers of the Grande Armée. (See comments to read more)
