LiseWorks Thanks for the reminder. 2d

Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick My plans aren't set in stone, but I may be doing Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl and The Fall by Albert Camus as they also help me make progress on #192025 too. 2d

Jess861 I've had The Dutch Orphan on my bookcase for a while so that is my plan for now. 2d

ChasingOm Hooray!! 1d

Cortg I requested an interlibrary loan for The Fall. Camus has been on my radar to try 😊 1d

TheBookHippie Got all my books put on hold! 1d

#WhereAreYouMonday

I am in the north of my own country, the Netherlands. On audio I‘ve been listening to this book which won many prizes upon its publication years ago but that I only read now because my favorite podcast hosts recommended it. I hope it‘s as good as they say!

Historie van Mejuffrouw Sara Burgerhart | Betje Wolff, Aagje Deken

Well I know what I want to read for #FoodandLit #Netherlands: the French translation of the tagged book. There was an article about the 2 female authors here: https://www.liberation.fr/culture/livres/elisabeth-wolff-et-agatha-deken-quatre-...
But it looks like the book's OCR isn't ready so I'd have to read the PDF of the 1787 print, and I'm not sure I'm ready for this😅

To Die Beautiful: A Novel | Buzzy Jackson

pick

To die beautiful, Hannie, a member of the Resistance, did just that. This fictionalized version of Hannie‘s life was at times a bit slow but still interesting. A brave soul. She came so close to making it to the end of the war.

This one was a surprise and yet, I find myself wondering about my preference to know little about plot or theme when I begin a book. I admit, I was getting irritated- extremely irritated- with Isabelle. I still don‘t ‘get‘ her, but then she didn‘t really ‘get‘ herself. Many thoughts, thoughts that aren‘t landing. 🛬
