“The Hospital at the End of the World”, by Justin C. Key.

Go to the library to pick up my reservation, the latest Ken Follett, and pretty much inevitably come home with a couple more books. Despite The Line of Beauty being "A classic of our time", I've never heard of it, so that will be a gap in my reading knowledge filled. #books #bookstodon

"The Renowned and Truthful Chronicle of All the World's Events is one of the various rags published each day in Turai."

In Agent Running in the Field, Le Carré gave himself a variety of characters through which he could vent his anger at Brexit, Trump, oligarchs, the state of the world & its intelligence services: Ed, Florence, Prue.
The main character, as ever, remains more circumspect but has clear sympathy for the other characters' views #Bookstodon #LeCarré #AmReading

Enjoying the framing of Le Carré's Agent Running in the Field, where it's clear from the beginning that the main character has already confessed his sins to 'the Office'.
I did pause reading once I saw how it might all end in calamity, but I'm glad I picked it back up #Bookstodon #LeCarré #AmReading

An exploration of the curren…

Zumindest ist der Protagonist gerade so alt wie ich geworden, auch wenn ich dazu zweimal nachdenken musst. Der Plot klingt interessant. #büchernase #lesen #bookstodon

This is a book recommendation for a good book. I think more people should read it. #bookstodon

Jeg er næsten færdig med en kort historie om Italien og det giver stort indtryk om lige præcis hvor imponerende EU er efter tusinde år af mere eller mindre konstant krig i Europa.
Jeg får også lyst til at starte en ny europæisk bogklub til at lære om vores fælles europæisk naboer samt læse nogle gode bŸger jeg ellers ville aldrig har kommer til. Nogen der har lyst til at komme og læse med i hovedstaden?
Eng:
I’ve almost finished a short history of Italy, and it really brings home just how impressive the EU is after a thousand years of more or less constant war in Europe.
I’m now also keen to join/start a European book club to learn about our fellow European neighbours and read some good books I’d otherwise never get round to. Anyone fancy joining me in or around Copenhagen?

If you are a logophile or perhaps a lexophile, or if you watch British TV, you know the name, Susie Dent. She’s got a new book, a mystery, called Guilty by Definition. TBH I’m not a fan of mysteries, but I am a fan of her, so I picked this up when I saw it. 1 chapter in and I’m hooked. Editors at an Oxford dictionary get a letter that references the year the senior editor’s sister disappeared. #bookstodon

Recientemente en epublibre han publicado la saga de Stephen King "La torre oscura" en un solo volumen, con ilustraciones y todo.
Si desaparezco un tiempo por aquí, ya sabéis una de las posibles causas. #mastolibros #mastobooks

Just started reading “Killing the Dead — Vampire Epidemics from Mesopotamia to The New World”, by John Blair. Looks fascinating. 300 pages so it’ll take a while. The idea of the undead has been around for probably as long as we’ve had any awareness of our mortality. Mythologies, oral and written, are chock full of the undead. I’ll try to post snippets of this story as I go along. #bookstodon

Just finished reading the latest #SlowHorses novel, Clown Town. Man o man this is a nasty one. Lamb is pissed that his joes keep getting killed, and that Taverner is more or less responsible. Dunno if this one will ever be televised. #recommended

Ausgelesen, das Ende fand ich etwas holprig … #büchernase #lesen #bookstodon #büchergildegutenberg
