Hello everyone and happy #stacksaturday to you all, hope you’re having a great weekend. Today I was inspired by the fabulous @julia_flyte who posted a #titlesentencestack The idea is that the title of the book forms a complete sentence. I’m not so sure about a couple of them but I’m going with it 😂 All these books are currently still on my TBR - is anyone surprised?? 🤣 Signs For Lost Children- Sarah Moss My Year Of Rest and Relaxation- Ottessa Moshfegh The Words Of Every Song - Liz Moore The Narrow Road To The Deep North - Richard Flanagan Maybe You Should Talk To Someone - Lori Gottlieb We Are All Completely Beside Ourselves - Karen Joy Fowler How Beautiful We Were - Imbolo Mbue An Ordinary Wonder - Buki Papillon I’d love to know your thoughts on any of these books or authors. Let’s have a chat in the comments! #bookstagram #bookstagramuk #bookstack #booksineedtoread #tbrgettingoutofcontrol #tbrandbeyond #signsforlostchildren #sarahmoss #myyearofrestandrelaxation #ottessamoshfegh #thewordsofeverysong #lizmoore #thenarrowroadtothedeepnorth #richardflanagan #maybeyoushouldtalktosomeone #lorigottlieb #weareallcompletelybesideourselves #karenjoyfowler #howbeautifulwewere #imbolombue #anordinarywonder #bukipapillon https://www.instagram.com/p/CavAf_3Lu8A/?utm_medium=tumblr

She was full of yearning. To leave, to be someone else, somewhere else, to start moving and never stop. And yet the more the innermost part screamed to move, the more she recognized that she was frozen to one place, one life.

Quel livre immense! En le refermant, j’ai eu le même sentiment qu’après à lecture de « Ça” de Stephen King ( qui a adoubé le livre et Garth Risk Hallberg, son auteur 🙏🙏🙏), “American Tabloid” de James Ellroy, “Dalva” de Jim Harrison ou plus récemment « La Route Étroite Vers Le Nord Lointain » de Richard Flanagan et “Un Dernier Verre Au Bar Sans Nom” de Don Carpenter « City On Fire » est un hydre à 10 têtes qu’il faut dompter avec sa foultitude de personnage si divers et attachants, avant de se laisser embarquer dans les 1000 pages de cette histoire incroyable dans le New York de 1977 où punks, grands bourgeois, flic, journaliste, artiste, peintre, galeriste, adolescents, quarantenaires croisent leurs destins dans une ville en décrépitude. La beauté et la diversité de l’écriture de Hallberg, qui passent de la description la plus intimes des sentiments au souffle le plus épique fait tenir cet achalandage improbable de façon magique pour arriver aux chapitres paroxystiques qui se déroulent pendant le black-out de l’été 1977, feuillets qui à eux seuls mettent à l’amende la majorité de la production littéraire. Garth Risk Hallberg est un prodige qui avec ce premier roman à la confluence du roman noir, de la fresque urbaine dickensienne et du roman d’apprentissage s’impose immédiatement parmi les grands écrivains Anglo-saxons. Enjoy! #cityonfire #GarthRiskHallberg #it #ca #stephenking #americantabloid #jamesellroy #dalva #jimharrison #thenarrowroadtothedeepnorth #richardflanagan #fridaysatenricos #doncarpenter (à New York, New York)

Which Person?

Oh Dear! I tried but only got 1 percent through and gave up. I couldn’t follow the story and was not interested enough by the opening to bother to try.

He thought of how the world organises its affairs so that civilisation every day commits crimes for which any individual would be imprisoned for life. And how people accept this either by ignoring it and calling it current affairs or politics or wars, or by making a space that has nothing to do with civilisation and calling that space their private life. And the more in that private life they break with civilisation, the more that private life becomes a secret life, the freer they feel. But it is not so. You are never free of the world; to share life is to share guilt. #RichardFlanagan #TheNarrowRoadtotheDeepNorth

Hello everyone and hope your week is going well. I have not had such a good start and I despair at myself 😂 As you might or might not know, I injured my head, neck and top of back in a fall at the beginning of December. That’s all nicely healed now and daily yoga has really helped. Today I injure my LOWER back. By doing what? Turning around quickly ���� I give up. Let’s cheer myself up with a book haul! 😜 Now I’m still to read Richard Flanagan’s The Narrow Road To The Deep North (but don’t worry @victoria_catherine_shaw it’s getting bumped this year 😆). I couldn’t resist this new paperback though as I’m pretty sure he’s a author I’m going to love. The story follows Anna whose aged mother is dying. Her children refuse to accept it and keep trying to make her stay. Forced to stay alive, she disappears through her hospital window into visions of horror and delight. Anna too feels that pull out of the window as parts of her body start to go missing - first a finger, then a few months later, a knee. One of the reasons I love bookstagram so much is the books it throws up that you weren’t expecting. I was compelled to buy Ru when @tarheelreader was talking to me about the author. In vignettes of exquisite clarity, sharp observation and sly wit we are taken on an unforgettable journey from a palatial residence in Saigon to a crowded and muddy Malaysian refugee camp and onwards to a new life in Quebec all told through the eyes of one girl. Finally, I’ve been eagerly waiting for Mrs Death Misses Death to be released in paperback. Death is a black, working class woman who is fed up of having done her job for an eternity and now she seeks someone to unburden her conscience to. I’d love to know your thoughts on any of these books or authors. Let’s have a chat in the comments and have a great week everyone! 🤗😘 #bookstagram #bookhoarder #bookhaul #prettypaperbacks #toomanybooks #thelivingseaofwakingdreams #richardflanagan #ru #kimthúy #mrsdeathmissesdeath #salenagodden #bookstoread #tbrpiletoohigh #booksimexcitedabout #ohlookanotherbook https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ-BdRurKxE/?utm_medium=tumblr

Two men, six weeks, $ 10 000. That’s the money Kif Kehlmann will get if he makes Australia’s biggest con man Siegfried Heidl talk and writes his autobiography. In serious need of money, Kif accepts not knowing with whom he will have to deal and what Ziggy Heidl is capable of doing. I had high expectations of Richard Flanagan’s latest novel, unfortunately “First Person” could not keep up with them.

Why the First?

I found that I just couldn’t get interested in this book, despite trying a couple of times. Somehow the characterisation didn’t work for me.
