Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead: A Novel | Olga Tokarczuk

pick

In this dark mystery, a remote village at the border between Poland and Czech Republic is the scene for death and secrets. The main character and narrator Janina is one hot mess - she has a penchant for the poet Blake and astrology, and decides that she has to figure out what is happening in her village.

This is definitely not a book for everyone. I liked it. It has some dark humor, and Janina is such an unique character. ⬇️⬇️⬇️

BarbaraBB On my tbr too for #Poland! 5y

Librarybelle @Cinfhen @BarbaraBB I have something else in mind for Poland. I‘m using #ReadingEurope2020 to read nonfiction about the countries. This was a happy coincidence! 5y

Cinfhen Ahhhh, cool idea!!!! 5y

Reviewsbylola This sounds promising. Nothing like super dark noir! 5y

Librarybelle Agreed, @Reviewsbylola ! 5y

The Other End of the Line | Andrea Camilleri

Need something lighter after a busy first day back at work, so switching to the latest Montalbano book. Sadly one of the last. 😢 This will be my #Italy entry for #ReadingEurope2020

If you have not read them what are you waiting for. My favourite translated books. Will also be reading it as my #ABookInTranslation for the Modern Mrs Darcy Annual Challenge. #MMDChallenge.

IamIamIam I joined that challenge but my favorite part so far is the habit tracker!!! Lol 5y

Andrew65 @IamIamIam I need to check up on that! 5y

IamIamIam @Andrew65 In the original email download, there was a printable bookmark that had all the months and boxes for each day. My only real goal is to read every day and that's definitely going to help me keep track! Lol... if you need, I can probably send the email over. 🤘 5y

Andrew65 @IamIamIam Thanks, I should still have the email but will let you know if I can‘t locate it. 😊 5y

bookwrm526 I love these books but I‘m parceling them out since I only recently discovered them and I know they are a limited resource :( 5y

Crazeedi @Andrew65 I hear there are 3 or 4 more not translated? I read that somewhere... 5y

Andrew65 @bookwrm526 I‘m sure I‘ll start back at the beginning at some point. With this one I will be up to date. I too love these. 5y

Andrew65 @Crazeedi That‘s great news. 😊 5y

Crazeedi @Andrew65 I never reread, but I know I will with this series!! 5y

Crazeedi @bookwrm526 oh lucky you to just be starting this journey!!! 5y

Andrew65 @Crazeedi Very rare for me too but would like to reread this series and the Myron Bolitar Series by Harlan Coben. 5y

Crazeedi @Andrew65 🥰 5y

Librarybelle Very nice! I bought book one in the series a few months ago after seeing the buddy read for the series! 5y

Andrew65 @Librarybelle They are excellent reads. 5y
