Oh my god. It’s heartbreaking. You can read We begin at the end, his previous book… You will love it.
I’ve given my other half the book (All the Colours) to read now and I’m catching her sobbing on and off

It was a good one. Can’t wait to see what they do with the film adaptation. Duchess

In the process of reading The Women by Kristin Hannah. Very emotional book. I can’t count the number of times I’ve cried.

Reading this right now for the second time around. I gotta say that it has just about the best ending I have ever read!
I would recommend to fantasy fans and Robert Jordan fans in particular

I’m now reading Widows by Pascal Engman (ISIS and terrorist activity based), the follow up to Femicide. Solid and new Scandinavian crime series, quite fresh in that it’s media weighted along with police procedural.

My 70th read of 2024 is currently….The Fellowship of Puzzlemakers - Samuel Barr
Then I’m going to read The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune. Need some lightness for a while.

Halfway through reading, for the third time, Neil Gaiman’s Anansi Boys. It is a fantastic book. Very fabulously written. And then yesterday, I find out that Neil Gaiman has been accused of SA by quite a number of people and it really saddens me. I have seen this kind of thing happen before where the question is can one separate the art from the artist? Does finding these absolutely horrendous facts stop me from liking the art? The Sandman comics were instrumental in shaping how I express myself today. Should I now simply make it such that I didn’t like them at all? How does one deal with this?
So yeah. I’m still listening to Anansi Boys.
And I have just started Delia Owens’ Where the Crawdads Sing (Brilliant)
And…the Obscure Sorrows on my gratitudes are from The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows.

I had much the same feeling about Eric Clapton and his music after hearing that he physically abused women. What does one do with such knowledge? I am not sure.
On a totally different note…I am just finishing up (making it last as long as possible) The Wedding People, 100% not what I expected and beautifully written…I absolutely love it.
I also just finished The Cliffs, which took a bit to get into, but turned into an expansive read about so many things.

very apt for the way I’m feeling this week ……
This isn’t alcohol specific but it is a great book for overall mindset change. This particular excerpt stood out to me because I’ve been having to change who I’m around and what events I attend. I’m feeling really great sober and am consuming all the good info I can!
