julesG Okay, I'll start. 🤣🤣 Sourcery isn't my favourite Discworld adventure. Rincewind isn't my favourite hero. But, I love how he's bumbling about and accidentally saving the world. 5h

TheAromaofBooks This was my first Discworld book, and while I liked it, I didn't love it. So I was glad to see a lot of reviews saying this wasn't one of the best 😂 I did appreciate the humor and unique characters, so I'm excited to read more. 5h

julesG @TheAromaofBooks Glad you liked it. 2h

repost for @Riveted_Reader_Melissa:

Hello #SheSaid!

My book was a bit late in arriving so I‘m just at the end of chapter 1. But the Intro really has me interested to read more. Please feel free to start discussing below… I‘ll join in soon. I‘m very curious at how deep we will get into our fractured body politic… see you in the comments.

Combined #BookReport and #WeeklyForecast :

I bailed on an audio - absolutely horrific (see my “review” for more details - and completed a few other titles.

This week, I have some library books that must be read, as well as keeping up with #buddyread books. We‘ll see how I do!

Happy Reading!

Wolf Hall | Hilary Mantel

pick

This was worthwhile, but it was also quite a slog. The first section was immediately engaging, but once the narrative shifted to grown-up Thomas, the tone shifted and the pace slowed way down. Mantel had a couple of writing quirks that didn‘t help: she almost always referred to Cromwell just as “he,” which often made it difficult to follow dialogue or internal thoughts vs. spoken words. That said, I admired Mantel‘s recreation of the Tudor era ⤵️

Librarybelle

BarbaraJean (Cont‘d) …and did find this rewarding in the end. Detailed and dense, it was a slow read—but also a fascinating character study of Thomas Cromwell. This has been on my shelf for several years, so I‘m glad to have had the motivation to read it thanks to the #LiteraryCrew #BuddyRead. I have the next book on deck, and I hear the pace picks up a bit there, so hopefully that will prompt me to pick it up sooner rather than later! 3d

Librarybelle Thanks for joining us!! I‘m still making my way through! 3d

Three-Body Problem | Cixin Liu

repost for @TheSpineView:

The Three-Body Problem is the winner for May's #LitsySciFiBookClub selection. My local library has this available. Kindle price is $11.99 and used from $7.15 on Amazon. I noticed one slightly loved copy on ebay for .99 + 4.87 shipping.
