Good luck!

Thanks, I will need it!

I have tried so many times in this group to make a monthly plan like you guys. I have the best intentions, but I always get distracted! I am only going to list a couple I want to read in February and then be realistic about my flibberdeegittidness.

Yes Please
(I've already read it, but need to reread for my RL book group)


and then whatever strikes my fancy!

I totally get you, Kandice.

Also, I keep requesting new books on Netgalley and then I want to read those before the ones I mentioned... Meh.

My plans for this month:

The Vagina Monologues was terrific. Hope you like it!

I'll try to pick up the pace this month.
Indignation
Children of Dune
The Catcher in the Rye
Daniel Deronda
Emma

Great picks, Gavin. Looking forward to your opinion on Catcher in the Rye, read it a couple months ago.

I've heard a lot of good about it! I am still waiting for my copy though. Ordered it more than a month ago, hope it'll be waiting for me when I get back from my holidays and that it is not lost...

The result this month was a bit more than expected (even though most of those are really short read)



Globally, I can say that I prefer Kei Miller's poems more than his novel, but all are interesting, and a great way to discover Jamaica.

As for The Vagina Monologues, maybe I was expecting too much from it, seeing what everyone was saying about it, but I didn't find it as "revolutionary" as what I was hoping for. It still made for an interesting read, but it let me a bit short. Maybe because I have never been afraid myself to say and call things by their name, and using the word vagina. Maybe because I can't even remember being too ashame or shy to talk about these subject. But for me, all these were "normal" matters and conversation subjects. But I do recognize that it is an important book to be all there for all the women who didn't have my education or habits.

And Rivers of London was great! Looking forward to the second one (I need to get my hands on that book first).

Nice month, Melas!

I actually didn't do too badly. I read 8 books, the only one from my list above that I didn't get to was The Girlfriend.

My final list is here:


My book of the month was but I also enjoyed and very much.

I'm planning to read Slade House in the near future.

Ah cool, I am reading it now, only 11 pages in but it seems pretty cool in a crazy detached from this world kinda way.

I will start it after finnish two books I have due to the library!

Ah cool, hope you enjoy it!

Thank you, I will
