The characters have aged as we have read alongside them. Olive is now ninety and I adore her! Slow paced observations on life and more. Can't get enough of this author....

Second reading for the Bookclub. Heart wrenching as we observe today, the experience of women. The relentlessness of it.

'There are Rivers in the Sky'.
There are Rivers in the Sky by Elif Shafak
5 stars
There are Rivers in the Sky ...a monumental achievement of three lives merging into infinite, cyclical humanity....with all its flaws. Bigger than it's 'parts'. So much more than 'us'.
Cincise31 commented on The Invisible Life of Euridice Gusmao by Martha Batalha
The translation hindered what could of been a more enjoyable read....as we followed the trials and tribulations of a myriad of characters.

Doppelganger by Naomi Klein
5 stars
Making the connections as to 'how we got here' ! Wonder critique of social media and the void being filled by conspiracy theories. Plus, suggestions for a way forward. Just what we need to try to stay in the moment.

Soul of a Woman
4 stars
Listening to an intelligent woman waxing lyrical about life suits me fine.
Cincise31 reviewed Hungry Road by Marita Conlon-McKenna
The Hungry Road
No stars awarded. A sanitised, idealised, stereotype of a tragic historical event. Period drama screenplay for day-time TV ? Not for me.

The Secret Hours by Mick Herron
4 stars
Covers a back story from the Slow Horses series. Stands alone. The usual 'comes to be expected ' humour and brilliant writing of the spooks genre.

Strong Female Character by Fern Brady
A 'share' with the community and empowering for doing so. Also, an opportunity for the 'allistic's' to get educated!
