I so enjoyed Sound of Things Falling that I had to get more of his books. Another read for #readaroundtheworld #colombia #colombianauthors So far I am enjoying this one too.

JenP Wow, you are speeding through them. 8y
kimmychr0nicles @JenP well to be fair I didn't finish the one that I posted about yesterday. I started it but since I was already 70ish pages in, I didn't want to bring it on my travels because I like to use 2 books that aren't touched at all when I travel. Plus I want to read as many Colombia books as possible before this month is up. ☺ 8y

This book has been on my to read pile for roughly over 10 years. Thanks to #readaroundtheworld I am finally tackling it. I was adopted out of Colombia at 2 months old. One of my recent trips back I got these baby photos of me which I had never seen before. I think I've avoided this book because if I wasn't adopted, this could've been my life. #colombia #colombian

RanaElizabeth How cool you got some baby pictures! 8y
JenP Thanks for sharing your story and the book. I haven't seen it mentioned yet. 8y

While a fascinating read, I'm pretty sure this book was the reason for my messed up nightmares last night lol

Sound of Things Falling | Juan Gabriel Vásquez
Pickpick

Wow. I loved this book. I folded over some many pages because of the profound sentences and ideas to think about. I love the ending. I think I found a new favorite author.

I can't stop reading this book. I need to sleep but I can't because it is so captivating! Chronicle of a Death Foretold was pretty good. A quick read. But Sound of things falling is getting me in touch with the city I was born in and it's making me feel very alive and in touch with the mysterious city and country I was adopted out of at 2 months old. #colombia #readaroundtheworld
