Tuulia𝙷𝚊𝚙𝚙𝚢 𝙴𝚊𝚜𝚝𝚎𝚛 𝚠𝚎𝚎𝚔𝚎𝚗𝚍! 🐣 I’m spending the holiday with family, and hopefully getting some reading in too. I picked theee books to take with me: one in Finnish, one in English and one I’ve received for review. I’ll more than likely end up reading something completely different from my e-reader… Hope toy have a good weekend! Will you be reading?

Law GeekWeekend reading! Going into the long weekend with The Screaming Staircase by Jonathan Stroud. I'm 25% in & enjoying it so far. Next up is The Confectioner’s Guild by Claire Luana.

Claudia KPJust finished 'East of Eden' by John Steinbeck. I don't think I've ever highlighted so many beautiful passages in a novel before. Definitely worth reading, especially in these troubled times.I knew the film, but that only dealt with a fraction of the whole story (and, annoyingly, it left out one of the most important characters!)What's it about, you ask? This quote sums it up nicely:"I believe that there is one story in the world, and only one. . . . Humans are caught—in their lives, in their thoughts, in their hungers and ambitions, in their avarice and cruelty, and in their kindness and generosity too—in a net of good and evil. . . . There is no other story."Have a good weekend, and happy reading.<a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Books</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/Steinbeck" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Steinbeck</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/WeekendVibes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WeekendVibes</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/WeekendReading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#WeekendReading</a> <a href="https://mastodonapp.uk/tags/GreatBooks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GreatBooks</a>

Law GeekWeekend reading! The Warm Hands of Ghosts by Katherine Arden is really good so far. Canadians in WW1 & some ghostly weirdness (I'm only 20% in).

Law GeekWeekend reading! Tbh, I've been really disappointed by This is your brain on music. The first 100 pages were a tedious slog through endless musical terms.

Law GeekWeekend reading! I'm loving The Spellshop by Sarah Beth Durst at 2/3 in. Just the kind of relaxing read I need.
