Reading Roundup: April 2024
Four books read in April
Wool (Silo #1) by Hugh Howey
Just as good on a re-read! Fast paced, tighly plotted and addictive sci-fi! - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4/5
#WeblogPoMo incoming…|
WeblogPoMo2024 lets go!
Spotify?
In which I debate with myself what alternative options I have and if its worth £11.99, before realising gift cards are a price hack!
Happy Birthday/Murder Cake 💜
An early birthday cake 🎂
Cultish: The Language of Fanaticism by Amanda Montell
Exceptionally thin on the linguistic elements, and full of basic filler on cults - all of which I already knew! ⭐⭐ 2/5 Stars
Joy #2
Absolutely thrilled to be mentioned by Veronique in her People & Blogs interview 💜
White Teeth by Zadie Smith
A well told, often funny, Dickensian flavour exploration of immigrant life in the melting pot of 1970s-1990s London. This was a great audiobook but just not a genre that excites me. - ⭐⭐⭐ 3/5 Stars
Fallout (TV): ‘Thou shalt get sidetracked by bullsh*t every goddamn time.’
Eight episodes was too short! Season 2 is going to be a long wait!
Bright Young Women by Jessica Knoll
An engrossing novel and affective dismantling of the Bundy myth. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5 Stars
