Fingersmith | Sarah Waters

The next books on my list! Hopefully I can go to Berlin next week, to my favourite bookstore in Germany. Otherwise I‘ll end up without reading material 😱.

Cyril Avery is not a real Avery and he never will be. then who is he? Boyne's story is a sweeping, heartfelt saga of one man's life from the 1940's to today and told through the eyes of Cyril Avery. close relationship with Julian Woodbead and will spend a lifetime coming to know himself. I found this book to be entertaining, funny and clever. recommend this book to those who love to read about Ireland. look forward to reading more by Boyne.

😍❤️😍❤️ LOVE THIS BOOK❤️😍❤️😍

This book - wow! Incredible characters and a smart, funny, yet heartbreaking story. What‘s not to love?? This author‘s writing reminds me of John Irving‘s earlier works, which makes sense considering he dedicated the book to Irving. I highly recommend this to literary fiction fans!

A day and a half into #24b4Monday and once again my reading totals are sadly low. 😩
Only finished this one so far and also trying to finish up Trever Noah‘s Born A Crime in audio.
The Boyne was a bit predictable, but I just couldn‘t stop reading it. He develops his characters so well and tells an entertaining story to boot. He‘s becoming one of my favorite authors after only 3 books. Yay! 😄

erzascarletbookgasm That‘s great! About the tagged book, I mean, and this cover is much better than the other one I‘ve seen. 6y

RebelReader @ezrascarletbookgasm That‘s a pic off the internet, the ARC copy is plain black and white. This cover is much more appropriate to the story. 6y

RebelReader I also want to point out that this book does raise questions about artistic ownership and intellectual property. 6y

While it took me a few chapters to totally embrace this book, it's amazing. Working in 7-year increments, its portrayal of the course of Cyril's life is sad and lovely, and it resists easy sentimentality. The structure allows some gasp-inducing cliffhangers, and the unveiling of Ireland, in all its beauty and tragedy, is illuminating.
