pickI started this on kindle years ago but gave up. I tried it again on audio for book club and it was okay. I couldn‘t stop thinking about the man‘s son who he left alone and grieving. Low pick.
It might feel like it but it is NOT hot enough to fry an egg. 🍳
pickAn account of an expedition to Everest which culminated in the deaths of 8 people including 2 experienced guides. In March 1996 three separate groups were caught out not far from the summit by a severe storm. This is a detailed account of the climb & an examination of the factors which led to the tragedy & leaves the reader wondering if such exploration is really worth the cost in lives.
pickI‘m growing on Sarah Lotz. While listing to another book of hers, I just finished this one. Set from extreme depth to extreme height (caves to Everest), the focus on the psychological/paranormal/trauma of the central characters drew me in. The idea of a shadow, real as a person, but only seen by one. Mind over matter, but the matter of madness extends a hand (even if unwanted).
Finally reporting my books read for March. This was a long-book month, and I was only 2 days away from finishing Cashelmara, which will show up in my April books read. I tagged my favorite book this month. Challenge update:
#foodandlit #Nepal (from last month) 2 (Katmandú Killers & Eight Mountains)
#foodandlit #Ireland 3+ most of Cashelmara
#foodandlit #Italy #Jubilee 1 (Eight Mountains)
#authoramonth (Bardugo) 2+ 1/2 of Wonder Woman
A bit late with February‘s #FoodandLit update. I made momos. They taste good but I‘m still having trouble getting them to look as nice and uniform as shown in the cookbook. #Nepal @Catsandbooks @Texreader
pickA very good but disturbing story about a girl from Nepal forced into the sex trade in India.
