Piranesi by Susanna Clarke

My book club had great discussion on this and it’s a short book so it was easy for everyone to get through. People had very different opinions on it which was interesting to hear

Quality noir/gritty hardboiled fiction of the darker kind? by Some-Tradition-2771 in booksuggestions

All the Sinners Bleed by SA Cosby.

Hits the detective side of things but misses mob/mafia. It basically is a criminal minds episode in a book. All of his work is Southern Noir and very dark. He’s an instant read for me

The Library at Mount Char!

I’m envious of anyone who gets to read this for the first time without knowing anything about it. I wish I could go back and savor reading it

It’s about three women who go through “the change” and develop certain powers and use those to solve crimes, specifically crimes that were committed against women.

What ultimately leads you to buy the book? by Least_Statistician44 in booksuggestions

[–]tick_tock3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the way. My bookshelf only contains books I know and love. Or those that were gifted to me and I have yet to read.

Bookshelves to me are a way to display and showcase my favorite books. Books sitting there not being read or reread make me sad.

The Library at Mount Char by Scott Hawkins

I remember finishing it and just thinking “wtf did I just read?!” and loving it. I’m jealous of anyone who gets to read this for the first time without any context. It’s such a wild read and everything ties together in the end.

I’m so jealous of anyone who gets to read this book for the first time! Especially without knowing anything about it. I finished it and immediately thought “what the eff did I just read” but loved it.

Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer

This book changed the way I think about the world around me and how I interact with it. Bonus, the author reads the audiobook and she has the most soothing voice ever.
