The Song of Names: A Novel | Norman Lebrecht

so-so

I chose this for the #Booked2021 category “musical instrument on the cover 🎻 .

This‘d been on my TBR a while, so I‘m glad I got to it, though I didn‘t love it. Neither protagonist is pleasant, but really my overall issue was I didn‘t quite believe their motivations. The story of two brothers, one fostered who‘s a musical prodigy who loses his family in the Holocaust...but who mysteriously disappears the night before his debut performance.

Cinfhen Sounds interesting/ sorry it didn‘t work for you. But yay for #AttackTheStack and challenge prompt 4y

Ruthiella @Cinfhen Yup, I‘m glad to get it read and off the shelf. It came highly recommended but wasn‘t my cuppa. ☕️ 4y

The Passport | Herta M�ller

Help lovely littens- what is the passport challenge? Seen lots of mentions but can‘t find the answer. Trying to decide whether to do challenges this year or just try to dig myself out from under my TBR pile! #attackthestack

MinDea I believe @maximoffs created this challenege, but could be wrong. Looks like the sign up link is https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfvA7GhJKyd6rjpuIwddNCOIYimmm697fy9ufKF... 8y

MinDea You pick authors from each assigned country... not sure if you are randomly assigned the countries or if you pick them. 8y

MinDea If you search #PassportLitsy you can find more info! 8y

Magpiegem Thank you @MinDea 😊 8y

Natasha.C.Barnes If you're interested in this sort of thing there is also #readaroundtheworld which is hosted by @JenP and that's 1 country/month that she picks--2018's are already out there! 8y

Bookworm54 The passport Litsy one, you choose how many countries you want to be assigned using the google form, and get sent that number of countries. I went with 5 so I could participate but not over face myself. Some people have chosen a lot more! 8y
