Actual purchases from my favourite bookshop online, Readings. I love the newspaper that comes with your purchase. This was from a while back.

I just loved this book. Ostensibly it‘s a murder mystery told by means of literary pastiche (a cosy mystery complete with secret passages, plenty of suspects & a quirky detective, a dark academia background excursion & an auto fiction conclusion) but at heart it‘s a political asking (expressly) why the proponents of the Thatcher/Reagan era policies which have created our current society do not like that society. ⬇️

CarolynM ⬆️ It is full of word games, literary references and discussions of the sitcom Friends. It‘s also very funny. Book number 6 for #14books14weeks @liz_m 1mo

This was a fun graphic novel of Northanger Abbey.

Mid-month check in. Read any good Northanger Abbey retellings? Anything you've hated?

Andrea313 Northranger by Rex Ogle was lots of fun, and I'm enjoying Ghosted so far. But I did a re-read of the following and any silly charm it may have once held drastically faded into sheer stupidity: 2mo
TheBookHippie Not yet 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️ it‘s been a bit wild here. 2mo
Crinoline_Laphroaig @TheBookHippie same! Last few days I read one graphic novel. 2mo

An odd format, described as a novel but containing much biography and thoughts on the life of a writer. Thoroughly enjoyable mostly but the literary critical segments sometimes get a little convoluted. Definite pick though.
