Charlie and the Chocolate Factory | Roald Dahl

“‘Yippeeeeeeeeeee!‘ And at the same time, his long bony body rose up out of the bed and his bowl of soup went flying into the face of Grandma Josephine, and in one fantastic leap, this old fellow of ninety-six and a half, who hadn‘t been out of bed these last twenty years, jumped on to the floor and started doing a dance of victory in his pajamas.”

Finished this #audiobook today; quite the ride! For a second, I thought Locke was done for, but then I remembered there was a sequel, so it helped me continue reading, knowing it would turn out well - he lusted for life and so was able to defeat the bad guy.

I passed the book along to a fellow coworker who enjoys fantasy novels and still only reads paper books! Made my day 😊

The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared | Jonas Jonasson

He may have been 100 but he had a great #LustForLife .I really enjoyed this book, a great journey through some of the historical events of the 20th Century. I need to read the new sequel, The Accidental Further Adventures of the Hundred Year Old Man.

Where the Crawdads Sing | Delia Owens

Kya has a #lustforlife in the swamp. I will be sad when this book is over because the imagery and story are beautifully woven together. Kya knows every leaf, shell, and feather in her swamp since she has nothing else, having been deserted by everyone she loves.

TrishB I loved this one 💕 5y

Cinfhen Should I do print or audio??? I‘m worried this book won‘t live up to the hype. Gorgeous imagery 5y

RohitSawant Need to read this one soon! Stacked it long ago. 5y

Mdargusch I was afraid of the same thing @Cinfhen and I‘m pleasantly surprised- for me it lives up to the hype. I‘m surprised this is the authors first novel. I also think either print or audio. And @TrishB loved it so... 5y

TrishB Of course there are always done we disagree on @Cinfhen 😁😘 5y

Cinfhen I‘m sort of waiting for a daily deal @Mdargusch @TrishB because I have a feeling my expectations are not going to be met 😿😾 5y

TrishB @Cinfhen @Mdargusch I think I read immediately before all the hype...otherwise I would probably feel the same! 5y

Mdargusch That makes sense @Cinfhen 5y

How It All Began: A Novel | Penelope Lively

Henry has a #lustforlife that is slowly being chipped away by the aging process.

I am only three chapters into this one, which is a #darguschfamilybookclub pick. @Mdargusch gave it five stars while @Meredith3 was not a fan. I‘m unsure yet of how I feel about it. #maymoviemagic

Cinfhen, RohitSawant

Cinfhen I read an excellent book by the same author recently, which earned 5 stars from me ( a known #StarScrooge )

Moon Tiger

Mdargusch @cinfhen- I‘m a big fan of her writing style. 5y

BarbaraBB Me too @Mdargusch I recently read and enjoyed

Heat Wave: A Novel

Cinfhen Need to check out both titles @Mdargusch @BarbaraBB 5y

Mayhem | Sigrid Rausing

#MayMovieMagic

(Day 10 - #LustForLife)

*Inspired by “Trainspotting,” I thought of this memoir. Sigrid Rausing‘s family is Swedish aristocracy, but her brother, Hans & his wife, Eva, were dedicated drug addicts, which led directly to Eva‘s lurid death in their (f8 million mansion. Hans has survived, and his four children thrived under the care of their aunt. I believe Ms. Rausing‘s “lust for life” is powerful—and I believe it helped all of them.

Cinfhen This sounds great #stacked 5y

RohitSawant Interesting! Stacking, too! 5y

gradcat @Cinfhen @rohit-sawant Fantastic! I truly hope you guys like it, but just know it‘s rather sad at times. It‘s really a tragic story... 5y

Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail | Cheryl Strayed

This challenge song title made me think of those who climb mountains and live to write about it. And it made me realize this stack is crying for a copy of The Mountain Between Us.
