so-soThis had its funny moments but it was also a bit silly. But it‘s a quick listen on audiobook at 5 hours. I didn‘t realize it‘s part of a series but it doesn‘t detract from the story. 3⭐️ 80 points

“But Hester, I‘m years older than you are. You can‘t really—“
“That is—if you want me,” said Hester with sudden doubt.
“Oh, I want you!” said Arthur Calgary.

so-soIn this post-modern classic, nothing is what it seems. The main character, Nicholas Urfe, goes to teach on a Greek island, and is impressed by his erudite and art-loving host. But along the way, Nick becomes entangled in a labyrinth of truths and untruths, of the psychological games of a master trickster, which become increasingly dark and serious.

I‘ve been here since the beginning, and I‘ll be here beyond the end, collecting tales from this wonderful and terrible world of water and ships and magic and ghosts.
And if you‘d like to hear another story, I‘ll have so many to tell you . . . one day.

pickWhat a delight! A story within a story, a story about stories, featuring Chih, a nonbinary story collecting cleric; weretigers; a mammoth upon which Chih rides up a mountain; sapphic love and poetry. Great #audiobook narration by Cindy Kay!
Listening to some more David Copperfield while making cookies for a cookie exchange tomorrow! Lots of things are happening in the story now and I plan to finish it up this week.

Just plan to read what i can this week.
so-soWell, that was a strange and disturbing story, especially with McEwan‘s descriptive writing. I felt dread early on, but I also didn‘t expect such an abrupt ending. Since I was listening as I worked and not noting the time remaining, I expected what was about to happen to be more drawn out.

Back to some light and cheery holiday reads now . . .
I come out of hiding. I walk down the aisle toward him.
The smile he gives me is worth living for.
“Found your book,” he says.
