#readaroundtheworld #Peru - 2 (gotta catch up with Greece!)

Grim tale of heartbreak, distrust and oppression. The suspected ending of the unnamed husband, was unraveled too slowly for me.

That said this is the 6th book I finished in this mostly satisfying week of #reading
Yes I need to update my read #books here ;))
#ebook #overdrive

Currey #readaroundtheworld #greece Don‘t you think it is odd that in a place as exquisitely beautiful as Greece all the books are about suffering and misery? Congrats on catching up 7y
rockpools My library reservation for this has just disappeared AGAIN! They obviously don't want me to read it, but no explanation why 🤷🏻‍♀️. I will get to Peru - one day. Glad your week's been successful. And @Currey I'm loving my Greece book - but the suffering/misery quota is astronomical! 7y
BookishMe @Currey Atwood's Penelopiad was entertaining despite the strong feminist retort at misogynistic and classist society. I have 2 more to go besides the tagged book below - hopefully they are not such Greek miseries ;)) this is the first book I started reading for Greece A rather grim set of vignettes

Off I go with the traveling again, cutting into reading time, but 4 days of concerts and eating and visiting in San Francisco ain't bad! ?. I'll be saying with my sis and BiL who is from Lima, Peru where Alarcon is from. This book is set in a "fictional South American country". A great insight into civil war and changing relationships, plus a bit of mystery. #bookssetinsouthamerica. #booktober
