Akin | Emma Donoghue

Still in Nice!
#whereareyouMonday
@Cupcake12
Reading Akin has brought back memories of our stay in Nice last year. We visited many of the places mentioned. And I just realised we were staying only a few minutes from the Hotel Excelsior!
This photo was taken on the roof of the MAMAC, in the reflection you can see the hill MC Noah climbed to visit his grandparents' grave.

Ruthiella I love it when I can read about places I‘ve been to and can recognize in the text. 😃 5h

Jeg Things I have read in books have taken me to many places not only in my head but in real life. Eg, Burial Rites took me to Iceland. Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil to Savannah. Love your pic. 35m

This last week of 2024 I‘m bouncing between late 1920s London and a village in Sussex reading Margery Sharp‘s debut novel.

Ruthiella @LeahBergen So far, it‘s a cute romance with very faint echoes of

Persuasion

bookandbedandtea Oooh this is on my list. Your mention of (faint) Persuasion influence has me looking forward to it! 4h

Ruthiella @bookandbedandtea When you read it, let me know if you agree! 3h

A Sight for Sore Eyes | Ruth Rendell

#whereareyoumonday

There are three storylines and at about a quarter of the way in, they haven‘t yet converged. However, much of the story so far takes place in Camden Town, a borough of London. 🇬🇧

We‘ve got a sheltered girl whose mother was murdered, a possibly sociopathic boy who loves beautiful things, and the ex-girlfriend of a rock star looking for a new boyfriend to support her….no clue what happens next!

White Elephant | Trish Harnetiaux

#WhereAreYouMonday
I'm excited to read this Christmas thriller because it sounds good but also because it's set in Colorado! Aspen, to be precise. I started it last night but fell asleep on approximately the 2nd page. I love the holiday season but end of year at work is exhausting. 😟
@Cupcake12

Ruthiella It is fun to read books set someplace one is familiar with! 😃 1w

bookandbedandtea @Ruthiella Absolutely! Plus, I feel like I went most of my life without ever reading a book set in Colorado so every time I come across one it gives me a little thrill. 🤪 7d

Death in Blue Folders | Margaret Maron

#whereareyouMonday

This Monday I‘m in 1980s New York City with Lieutenant Sigrid Harald of the NYPD. I‘ve only been to NYC once in the late ‘90s, but I know from books and other media that it was a little different then from now…grittier for sure. The reader gets a glimpse of this in this mystery series, but just a glimpse.

Had to use a different tagged title since “The Right Jack” isn‘t in the database.

BarbaraBB I‘m with you in NYC, unfortunately a few years later so we won‘t be able to meet up 😀 2w

CHRISTMAS AT CEDARWOOD LODGE: Celebrations & Confetti at Cedarwood Lodge | REBECCA. RAISIN

#WhereAreYouMonday
I'm in Evergreen, New Hampshire (I admit when I saw on the blurb this was set in "Evergreen" I was hoping it was the one in Colorado. Oh well, I rarely read a book set in New Hampshire so that could be a nice change.)

I'm also finishing up The Christmas Book Hunt, which has taken me from London to Hay-on-Wye (bucket list!!) to Alnir to Edinburgh.
