so-soBook no 1 from my #10beforetheend picks.
This was gearing up to be a pick but I found a couple of the latter chapters sketchy and sadly lacking. Still enjoyed the earlier chapters on media moguls which is clearly where O'Brien has the most knowledge and experience

Starting a bit of non fiction... Not expecting any new revelations I wasn't aware of but sure having it synthesised into one place is going to get me #raging
Part of my #10beforetheend list so I may be a little early but wanting some non fiction on #kindle today, as it is so dark and dreary here today.

so-soFor me, Ali Smith's books try too hard to be too many things, making each aspect feel dilute.
There are moments of genius throughout Autumn, but the structure is so ad hoc, that we lose impact.
We have a neighbourly love story, some unsubtle thoughts about Brexit and bureaucracy that resonate (albeit in a heavy-handed way), and some info about Pauline Boty.
All very interesting, but the lack of cohesiveness in the narrative frustrated me.

New video now live! 🥰🥰 Thank you to everyone who supports my channel / enjoys my vids.
Today's vid is 30 mins of me discussing what books are on my Autumn TBR. There's no way I'm going to get round to all these, so let me know in the comments if there are any that I need to prioritise 😁
I'll post Illumicrate unboxing for the month next. Pickles heavily featured (but not helpful!) 🤣🤣
pickI am not a fan of the Johnson family but a friend gave me this to read and I felt I had to at least try and read it ! I then found myself in a position where I thoroughly enjoyed it and couldn‘t put it down ! I was not expecting that …. It‘s sort of a spoof on the 2016 Brexit referendum, Russian involvement and USA presidential election - very close to the bone at times and fascinating reading .
