I can never resist buying buying something when I happen past The Book Warehouse At Golders Green. This was on the reduction table for 99p. Will release when read.

I didn’t really enjoy this book. Maybe the magic was lost in translation (I have the same trouble with reading Gabriel Garcia Marquez). Most of this book I was annoyed and not really understanding the point of what I was reading. The plot was a bit all over the place. Then it focused, the pace picked up! I suddenly felt a bit excited during the last quarter and read it quite quickly. Many things were clicking into place. Quite a tragic little book. We are left with out a definite answer to what exactly went down. The narrator himself seemed disappointed that life was not what he thought and didn’t want to face up to what it was. I mean, We don’t actually know who he is. Weirdly, I think this story could make a good film.

Going to my first ever BookCrossing meet up. Should have been a picnic in Regents Park, but Mother Nature had better ideas. Now we are going for a pub lunch in the Allsop Arms near Marylebone/Baker Street. I have a large bag of books to share, so though it easiest to make release notes now (I really don’t want to bring any back). So go forth brave little books! Thanks for letting me read you. I hope you find many new readers to delight.
