All Souls | 
November 2 #HumbleHarvest All Souls Day I'm not one to celebrate this. I understand it's a Catholic celebration. To me, I remember the ones I lost with happy memories or something I do or see will remind me of them all year long. @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
so-soThis was... fine. Maybe because I know oxford so well I found the descriptions of life there boring rather than exciting, it felt a bit like reading a prospectus rather than a novel at times which is a type of description I hate - if I‘m reading your novel for prose and characters and plot don‘t summarise the Wikipedia article of a university for 200 pages. Other than that there wasn‘t loads wrong with it just š¤·āāļø
The first package of my #bookhaul arrived today! I‘m struggling a little bit right now so I thought I‘d treat myself š„° just as I was finally making progress on my physical tbr I realised HOW MANY books out there it was absolutely essential I have. If I hadn‘t bought these ones I‘d probably have collapsed. True story. Does this happen to anyone else??
so-soAn unnamed Spanish lecturer at Oxford (who is supposedly not the author) describes scenes and people from his two years there. And spends lots of time speculating about events in other peoples‘ lives. All in long stream-of-consciousness paragraphs. Not my kind of thing. #1001books read 195. #intranslation
Up next from the #1001books list. Since this is just over 200 pages, I hope I can finish this before my February group read holds come in! #intranslation
