#WhereAreYouMonday

I have way too many books on the go, so am literally literarily all over the place! 😂 But the one I‘m reading the fastest is the tagged book, set in a rest home outside of a Norfolk village in second half of the 20th century. A carer at the home befriends one of the patients and it turns out that both of them have secrets they are hiding.

This book is also one of my #10BeforetheEnd picks.

With Empress Sisi of Austria-Hungary at the restful Gödöllő Palace, enjoying time away from the restrictions of the Imperial court in Vienna (and being fussed over by dashing romantic rivals).

I am in Greece with Elsa, a famous pianist, who is here now but who is about to start drifting around Europe, in the wake of a catastrophic performance. I‘ll gladly accompany her!

#WhereAreYouMonday I fell behind in the chapter a day pace with the rest of the #RandomClassic BR so I‘m still trudging in the snow on the way to Cutter Gap, Tennessee. I‘ll catch up soon. I‘m enjoying my first read of Christy.

#WhereAreYouMonday

Today I am in Micronesia. In Yanagihara‘s book it‘s the 1950s and a young doctor signs on with an anthropologist for an expedition to the remote Micronesian island in search of a rumored lost tribe. I joined them 😉

Cupcake12 This sounds interesting x 1w
Ruthiella I thought this was pretty good but difficult at times due to the subject matter. I‘ve not read A Little Life. I never will. 1w
BarbaraBB @Ruthiella There is no need. So many books 🩷 1w
Megabooks I don't think I could stomach this one, but I've though about a To Paradise reread this winter given what's going on in the world. 1w
BarbaraBB @Megabooks I know nothing about the one I am reading and where it‘s leading towards, but I‘ll be prepared. And I can see a reread of In Paradise as just the right time for it. 1w

#WhereAreYouMonday

This Monday I‘m in Northern Germany, outside of Hamburg with a newly separated mother of a toddler and her eccentric Aunt Vera, who came to the village as an ethnic German refugee from what is now Poland after WWII. A bit romantic comedy, a bit family history, a bit satire on society, especially city life vs rural.

bookandbedandtea That sounds good! 1w
Ruthiella @bookandbedandtea So far, so good! 👍 1w
