This month's country for our #ReadingTheWorld book group is India and I've gone very off piste with my choice - Paper Moon by Rehana Munir - if I can squeeze in something more traditional or translated I will but I needed a lighthearted book right now!
Plus there's a cat on the cover!

Middlemarch by George Eliot

One of the most overrated books I have read.

My #ReadingTheWorld project is introducing me to some incredible books but so often it is the heavier/serious books that I’m finding. Can people point me in the direction of the equivalent of our pop culture in translation?

Glad I have a cat for cuddles as I read about the Khmer Rouge!

Saturday Night & Sunday Morning by Alan Sillitoe

A good book, with a truly unlikeable protagonist

The Loney by Andrew Michael Hurley

An excellently crafted gothic horror (which tinges of folk horror)

Morning Womble!

Today’s reads are Lifeboat at the End of the World by Dominic Gregory, which I think will complement my recent read of Horatio Clare’s We Came By Sea

And in fiction the short stories Manchester Happened by Jennifer Nansubuga Makumbi as part of my #ReadingTheWorld project

So relieved that people came to my new book group today & that they liked the idea & concept.

Our next meeting will be 12.45 on 10th Feb at the Millennium Library in Norwich and our focus will be Nordic books but up my relief this has widened out from just Noir!
