A crazy, kind of weird book based on the real-life story of a serial killer who kills men using food. Warning: contains mouth-watering descriptions of delicious meals!

Want to learn about propaganda - the stuff used back in the day and the way it's been improved today? Then this is the book for you. It's scary, thought-provoking and very, very excellent. You won't be able to put it down!

Book one of 2025, and we start the year off very sad with this historical fiction novel from last year's Book Prize winner, Jenny Erpenbeck.

Book number 4 is the 2017 @prixgoncourt winner. It’s a dark, sometimes funny, historical fiction book that is very short and very good! · · · · #booklover #bookish #bookaddict #books #bookphotography #igreads #bookaholic #bookishfeatures #booklove #instabooks #read #bookstagramer #bookfeaturepage #booknerdigans #bookstagramcommunity #readersofinstagram (at Berlin, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpA5fLdINor/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
