iiiamash01i0 on August 24, 2024 2:17 pm Secondhand Souls, by Christopher Moore. I’ve read pretty much all of his books. I’ve read it once before, and it’s just as good as his other stuff.
Neon_Aurora451 on August 24, 2024 2:26 pm I’m reading (and all are first-times with these authors; so far love the writing styles in each book and am happy with my reading choices): Miss Benson’s Beetle by Rachel Joyce I am curious to see how the story turns out. Grey Bees by Andrey Kurkov Sounds very intriguing; a beekeeper in the midst of the Russian/Ukraine conflict and am interested in seeing where the author takes this. The Shell-Seekers by Rosamunde Pilcher Each book is completely different. I would say the first two are a little unusual. They don’t have typical plots.
AndyCheeks on August 24, 2024 2:27 pm The Dinner by Herman Koch. Never read anything by him before. I just started it the other day, so far so good!
