Haven‘t posted much, as I have been in a reading slump. Brought out my kindle oasis after watching a booktuber say it‘s still his fav device. It‘s the physical page turn buttons that make it.
This book is great and got me back from my slump. Ya know if you follow me here, every so often I do read a science/nature book aside from the fiction I usually read. This does not disappoint.

Doing a reread of one of my fav authors Scarlet Scar Trilogy since the new updated versions released this past week.

pickThis is not a leisurely read, it‘s alarming, bloody, angry and very anti-women. Orestes by Euripides is hardly produced for the stage today but worth a read if, like me, you‘re trying to put all the pieces together that makes mythology.

so-soThere were parts where the poetry was moving, but minus: the story of Dido; the sea voyage Aeneas has; and some sobering war scenes, this mostly read like a piece of propaganda, but I would read again. This time I read Robert Fagles verse translation, I found it to be an easy read.

pickThis is so different from the movie Total Recall but just as entertaining without all the wacky characters, special effects and chase scenes. The ending is unexpected, I didn‘t know if I should be amused or be stunned.

pickThe premise of this short novel is quirky and disturbing whilst raising some philosophical concerns on humanity, science and politics. There are subtleties here I think I missed because I don‘t know enough about the Russian Revolution and after. For now, I am left with the impression this is a very brave novel to write.
