Panpan

This Orcadian verse SFF novel with accompanying standard southern English version tells the story of a student returning to a space station from her art studies who forms a relationship with a visitor to the station.

While it was fun matching up the two versions and listening to the audiobook on Everand, there seemed to be a lot missing from the actual story which suddenly just stopped in the middle of the action. A disappointment.

L to R: Libby, Kobo, 📖Physical & 🎧Audible

There‘s been lots of major cleaning & very little reading taking place this week but, that being said, I have these open books for any downtime & 🎧some tasks.

ChaoticMissAdventures I thought The Third Gilmore was so well done, well written and I loved that Kelly Bishop reads the audio. 1mo

Janet is misunderstood, dismissed, and made to feel “other” by her family, peers, and teachers in her girls‘ school in Scotland. She wanders her family‘s dark, crumbling, rambling castle. Janet feels deeply, especially affected by animal suffering, and feels at peace in nature. She grates on the nerves of those around her with her ‘know it all‘ ways. It‘s an atmospheric read with excellent writing and striking imagery. Short but feels long. ⬇️

Chelsea.Poole ⬆️I felt a kinship with Janet, aching for the brutality humans inflict upon animals. But other times I understood why she was such an outcast and grated on my nerves as well. This is a sad read but with plenty of humorous moments. 2mo
Readergrrl This was one of my favorite reads last year!!! 2mo
sarahbarnes Great review! Add that to the blurb from Ali Smith on the cover and I‘m stacking. 😊 2mo
