On the Black Hill: A Novel | Bruce Chatwin

so-so

Meh. It started off well, but began to unravel in the middle mainly because it introduced too many characters that weren‘t well developed. I had much higher hopes based on the blurb.

Ruthiella Bummer! 🙁 3w

The Redemption of Galen Pike | Carys Davies

pick

This short story collection was as amazing as “everyone” said it was. Traveling from the jails in the Wild West to a meeting with Queen Victoria, from the isolated farms in Australia to a snowy Siberia.

More importantly is the way she sets up the stories and you think they are going in a certain way, for Davies to take them in a different direction, playing with our prejudices and so they never gets boring

1st finish for #AwesomeApril

On the Black Hill: A Novel | Bruce Chatwin

Good grief…..🤦🏽‍♀️ At least I didn‘t buy a duplicate this time, I borrowed it. I‘m glad I made the discovery because I really dislike due dates.

I also found Someone at a Distance by Whipple on my shelves and that has been in my Abe cart too. 🙄

jlhammar 😆 And your copy is so nice! This one wasn‘t on my radar. Sounds really good. 3w

Cathythoughts What are we like ❤️😂 ! Someone At a Distance was my first Whipple. I loved it. 3w

Tamra @jlhammar I think it‘s a good nighttime read - quiet. 😌 3w

Tamra @Cathythoughts 😜 nutty huh? It‘s so silly because I‘ve really wanted to get to Someone at a Distance & keep eyeballing it in my cart. 3w
