Bought this as a guide to the Alhambra. So far (ch 3) is about the history. Lots of photos, diagrams & maps (good). Does have turns of phrases that show it's translated; uses 'vegetal' art but I think it means 'floral' and some terms which haven't been explained (yet). Has QR codes for digital content attached to the book (which I haven't tried yet) for additional info.
pickEnjoyed the first installment of this thriller series!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
so-soGlad I am done looking at this cover.
This is my second McQuiston. I find her characters annoying. I thought I liked Kit but then he quickly got on my nerves when we switched POVs. I guess I dislike books where I cannot really see why one character likes the other. Theo was mostly an ass. Everything revolves around mis or no communication.
Too much sex to be considered YA but not enough maturity for olders. 20 somethings might like it
I love the edges but goodness do I hate this ugly cover. Every time I reach for the book I think about how much I dislike the cover 😂
This is my second McQuiston and I feel like they just might not be for me. Though I did like the movie version of RW&RB I really didn't like the book, so if their stuff is ever adapted again I would try that medium.
Chapter 14: Holy mother of Hemingway, it is absolute literary genius.

Hello! Looks like being indecisive about adding this to my library has paid off since it‘s half price at Dymocks right now!
