Urban CameraCoffee and a thick slice of Brie, perfect.

Alx 🐈@ModernDayBartleby @bookstodon Nice! I think these early stories from her are her bests.
@alx @bookstodon I'm rereading all I can find at the various libraries around me to revist them
@ModernDayBartleby @bookstodon Yep, I come back to her kind of cyclically. Some of my favourite are 'Goodbye Tsugumi', 'Asleep', and one never translated in English (to my knowledge) 'L'ultima amante di Hachiko'
@alx @bookstodon ASLEEP is the other one I checked out this week from one of my local libraries
@ModernDayBartleby @bookstodon I have a special soft spot for Asleep as I've read and re-read it through a moment in life were I had troubles sleeping, but it's been like 15 years now since I read it last. Waiting for your impressions.
Alex@ModernDayBartleby @bookstodon how quickly do you read these books?
@alexthepres @bookstodon Hahaha, I read a lot of books simultaneously. I'm currently at a pace of finishing over 14 books a month though
HepCatJackI had the idea inspired by a person who visited 135 countries, to read at least one history book from every country covering as much as possible.
I thought that going through the list alphabetically would be logical. Two country names stood up in the A's as I didn't know very much about Andorra nor Azerbaijan.
I had prev DL from the Internet Archives the New Cambridge history of India now in the public domain.
I've ordered:
Andorra, the Hidden Republic-Armour, Robert Gaston
@ModernDayBartleby golly, I read often but not at that pace. I am very impressed, and it makes me wonder what I need to do to be more like you, aside from the obvious answer (lol)
@alexthepres It helps to live somewhere with a great train system so I can read to/fro work. But I also wake up an hour earlier than I need to to get some reading in. But no need to read at my pace. You've figured out what works for you and that's all that matters.
LM Little@miki_lou @bookstodon Good books keep my spirits up
