Evening all! Emmanuel here with another #WhatWeAreReading post!
I'm #nowreading Elizabeth Crook's 'The Which Way Tree', a gripping novel set in Civil War Texas.
It follows a young girl's Moby Dick-esque revenge quest against a demonic panther.

Steven here with another #whatwearereading post!
It’s my first foray into Philip K. Dick with The Man in the High Castle (an excellent complement to Robert Harris’s alternative history Fatherland, which I read last year).

Steven here with this week’s #WhatWeAreReading.
Being a Francophile and cheese lover, I just couldn’t resist joining Ned Palmer once again with his A Cheesemonger’s Tour de France.

Emmanuel here with this week’s #whatwearereading! I'm reading Ernest Hemingway’s first short story collection, In Our Time.
Each story exhibits his clinical style of omission and my favourite was ‘Soldier’s Home’, a stark portrayal of the Lost Generation’s post-war malaise.

Afternoon! I’ve got a #whatwearereading update from Eve!
Recently she’s been reading ‘The Perfect Golden Circle’ by Benjamin Myers; she’s loved how it freshly combines the conspiracy theory-centric focus of crop circles with poignant reflections on the climate crisis.

1/2 Steven here with this week’s #whatwearereading. First is Mary Beard’s Emperor of Rome (despite having studied Italian, I have never visited Rome, so I am looking forward to righting that wrong next month… and what better way to gen up on the history!)

Just started this delightful little book with the youngest 🚂 Finally convinced the eldest to read #DavidAlmond Skellig with me too 🥰 #WhatWeAreReading #KidsLit #BedtimeStories
#whatwearereading Our current Book Group read is The Librarianist by Patrick deWitt.
Has anyone read? What did you think?
I’ve got a lunchtime #whatwearereading post for you all!
After tearing through #Lakers legend and #NBA logo Jerry West's autobiography, I couldn’t help picking up Jeff Pearlman’s Showtime.
It’s all about the 1980s Lakers dynasty; it's a paean to electric 80s basketball.

1/2 Ludo here with this week’s #whatwearereading! I’m really enjoying economist and podcaster David McWilliams’s MONEY.
He argues that money is our greatest invention, and tells the story of how it has shaped us from the dawn of civilization through to the present day and beyond.

1/2 Steven here with #whatwearereading… Over the past few days, I’ve been tearing through the 2016 Man Booker International Prize-winning The Vegetarian by Han Kang.

1/2 Steven here with this week’s #whatwearereading. Having devoured Muriel Spark’s Memento Mori and The Ballad of Peckham Rye last year, I couldn’t resist picking up The Driver’s Seat when browsing in the local charity shop recently.

Emmanuel here to kick off Wednesday with another #whatwearereading!
I've torn through #Lakers legend and #NBA logo Jerry West's autobiography: 'West by West: My Charmed, Tormented Life'.
It's a chilling, introspective read that leaves no stone unturned.
