BOOK CLUB…ISH

I have been reading all my life really, but I wouldn't say I feel particularly well read. This is a space for me to get somewhat of a grip on the books I am reading and be a little more intentional about my choices. For lack of a better word, I'll 'review' all the books I read but please don't take me too seriously<3

One Hundred Years of Solitude

The story of seven generations of the Buendia family and of Macondo, the town they built. Though at first little more than a village in the shadow of a jungle and mountain, Macondo tastes in time bitter war and disaster, wonder and great miracle. But the deep secrets of this place and people were foreseen and written down long ago, and soon only Aureliano Buendia can begin to fathom its mystery.

Madonna In A Fur Coat

THE SECRET HISTORY

Under the influence of their charismatic classics professor, a group of clever, eccentric misfits at an elite New England college discover a way of thinking and living that is a world away from the humdrum existence of their contemporaries. But when they go beyond the boundaries of normal morality their lives are changed profoundly and for ever.

A seemingly polarising book, but one I'm really excited about - it pushed me to finish the previous one to be honest and felt very apt for this time of year.
