I remember reading The Lost City of Z. Hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I finished it last night and I wish we knew for sure. The not knowing and having no closure is hard. But no way in hell would I follow the same path!
DeleteI *think* I have 'Rival Queens' and I can see why the swearing book appealed... [grin]
ReplyDeleteThe weather has improved here (3 dry days IN A ROW!) so I've been shopping.... Which means... BOOKS! But I think you'll only be interested in 2 or possibly 3 of them. So:
Fiction:
The Last Unicorn by Peter S Beagle
This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar & Max Gladstone
Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus
Napoleon's Spy by Ben Kane
Non-Fiction:
Post Wall, Post Square - Rebuilding the World After 1989 by Kristina Spohr
Roaring Girls - The Extraordinary Lives of History's Unsung Heroines by Holly Kyte
All the Lives We Ever Lived - Seeking Solace in Virginia Woolf by Katharine Smyth
The Wordhord - Daily Life in Old English by Hana Videen
Diary of an Invasion by Andrey Kurkov
Rigged - America, Russia, and One Hundred Years of Covert Electoral Interference by David Shimer
Hey Hi Hello - Five Decades of Pop Culture from Britain's Broadcasting DJ Pioneer by Annie Nightingale
Attack Warning Red! - How Britain Prepared for Nuclear War by Julie McDowall
Aliens - The Chequered History of Britain's Wartime Refugees by Paul Dowswell
What are you trying to imply? That I fucking swear too much? lol
DeleteRoaring Girls and The Wordhord for sure. Possibly Hey Hi Hello and Rigged. Library has Wordhord so I put it on hold, but no luck on Roaring Girls. But I will find it!
A good looking Library haul!
ReplyDeleteI hope that you enjoy them all.
Have a great weekend!

DeleteI enjoyed a lot The Lost City of Z, many years ago. I hope you like it too
ReplyDeleteIt was not my most favorite of his work, but such an interesting trek through the Amazon!
