Any that you like the look of from the books above? Let me know in the comments below
Have read a few of them.
Loved Sea of Tranquility (fiction!!) although I didn’t think it quite as good as Station Eleven.
That is good to know, would you highly rate the ones you have read? Station Eleven was excellent, and have high hopes for this. I am reading more fiction at the moment as I have lots of it here and can read it really really quickly
Cold Fish Soup and Why Women Grow were both very good.
I liked the sound of the Francis Pryor book but couldn’t get into it at all.
You are lucky to be a fast reader – I’m not!
Why Women Grow was a charity shop find! And you kindly sent me Cold Fish Soup
I’ll be interested to hear what you think of Human Origins: A Short History – I have reviewed it for Shiny but I found it took me quite a long time to get through!
I will let you know in due course!
