2026/03 Books I read: Mammut | Eva Baltasar
Dense and unforgiving. Tackling what it means to be a woman today without apologies. The translation kept me hooked beyond the beautiful German book cover.
4/5

'The Book of Trespass - Crossing the lines that divide us' by Nick Hayes. The cover of the book has an illustration in red and grey of woodlands and a stag behind barbed wire.
"The CRoW access maps... show Open Access areas of England shaded in a yellow wash, dribbled over England like small puddles of piss-all." (p.371) - I highly recommend this book to anyone wanting to know more about the history of land ownership and how it still affects us today. #BooksIRead

Books I read: Badjens | Delphine Minoui
A strong first book club read of 2026. Following Persepolis and Martyr, it stayed with the theme. Pulling me in right away; the - at times - prosaic language deepened the intimate mood and left me with many moments for discussions.
5/5

- Villager; one of the first books I read this year and one that has stuck with me the most. Multiple stories told over time about a single location, weaving together folktales and modern issues

Day 31! While most were in no particular order I’d be lying if I said I didn’t save this one for last on purpose.
It made me laugh, it gave me hope, it made me cringe, it made me heartsick, it made continue to have faith in humanity.

Books I read: A minor detail | Adania Shibli
Split between past and present,it’s a striking little read.The contemporary part was the stronger section for me with its tense narration.With both parts underlining that this conflict continuously shaped people’s lives.Tough,but moving.

Just finished reading The Burnished City trilogy by Davinia Evans and it was such a brilliant escape into an entirely different but also familiar world. One of those series I am sad to be leaving behind and will be sure to return to. #BooksIRead #Fantasy #BookCorner

Books I read:The Man in the High Castle | P K Dick
The style of the short stories is retained.The political and historical references enhance the narrative.The use of German believability.Initially confusing,the oracle parts reveal East Asian influences in this alternative reality.

Books I read: Small Boat | Vincent Delecroix
The premise got me hooked, the book immersed. With the underlying dilemma as timely as ever, the mix of perspectives and the well-paced writing; it's perfect to spark a conversation.

A photo of the book 'Disability Visibility - First-person stories from the twenty-first century' edited by Alice Wong. The book cover has a multicoloured geometric shaped pattern on a white background.
An interesting read. Enlightening and understandably, a little depressing, but worth reading. #BooksIRead

Books I read: The Setting Sun | Osamu Dazai
Despite similar tropes, this felt more optimistic than No Longer Human. Telling the story of a Japanese aristocratic family in the early 20th century, exploring economic and societal issues as the family falls out of grace.

A book titled "The Backwards Knight" by Matthew Siadak on damp deck boards. The cover features a man swirling in blue magic holding a golden sword.
Just finished this one from @backwardsknight.com ! I'm not much of a fantasy reader, but this one kept me reading for sure. Just one more chapter!

Books I read: James | Percival Everett
A clever reimagining of Twain’s classic, best enjoyed if you know the original. Slow start, rushed second half, but the writing and perspective kept me going.

Books I read: I who have never known men | Jacqueline Harpman
More atmosphere than plot. Addressing the essential human will to endure remains. The fractured style of storytelling kept me hooked until the end.

Teaching can feel like sprinting through sand: every ounce of effort disappears into new mandates, fresh interruptions, and the endless pressure to prove you’re “impacting achievement.” #books #booksiread #mastery #plcs

Books I read: Martyr | Kaveh Akbar
Took me a while to warm up to Martyr!, but it turned out to be quite captivating. It weaves migration, purpose, some political context about Iran and death into a layered narrative that rewards patience.

Books I read: Eurotrash | Christian Kracht
The mix of fiction and biography kept me guessing, and I’ll return after finishing his earlier work.
Generational clashes, political commentary, and linguistic irony make it absurd and poignant.

Books I read: You dreamed of empires | Álvaro Enrique
A vivid, hallucinatory joy ride, blurrinh the lines between history and dreams. Its lush, creative language is immersive and - with shifts between levels of reality - merges into one hypnotic vision.

Books I read: Der Fremde | Albert Camus
The detached style of writing and the indifferent perspective of the protagonist towards the death of his mother and life in general is quite unique. It really questions the societal norms and expectations regarding grief.
