Which books do you keep coming back to? This is my copy of Atonement, battered and dog eared, marked-up with footnotes and post-its. Somehow this is the third time I‘ve been assigned it for study, and while I know its pages inside out, little things continue to surprise me. It‘s interesting to examine an old favourite under a new light, and I still have to brace myself as I inch closer and closer to the ending!

Quick study break while I enjoy a book for fun and not for uni! Such an important book, telling the rare stories of the North Korean people, smuggled out of the country by a dissident writer. I feel that the story of the author is just as fascinating and important as the stories contained within the book!

"The young lady meanwhile had drawn near. She was dressed in white muslin, with a hundred frills and flounces, and knots of pale-coloured ribbon. She was bare-headed; but she balanced in her hand a large parasol with a deep border of embroidery; and she was strikingly, admirably pretty." #daisymiller #henryjames #americanliterature #booksandmaps #litstudent
So in love with this heartbreakingly beautiful book ❤#homegoing #goodreadsgoodeats #booksandfood #orange #love

"As the elderly passed away, the departed Golden Shore vanished into the smoke of history. The ship of human civilisation floated along in the vast ocean, surrounded on all sides by endless, sinister waves, and no one knew if there was an opposite shore."
"The late afternoon sunlight, warm as oil and sweet as childhood, slanted through the high, bright, gymnasium windows."
A chilling horror and frosty beer to cool down on a 37 degree day ??? #bookclub #booksandbeer #summerinaustralia

"Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read. One does not love breathing."
