Nutze seit über 2 Jahren auf der Instanz books.theunseen.city.. und die Probleme werden leider größer. Einmal ist sie von heute auf morgen ist nicht mehr erreichbar, und ein anderes Mal, also eigentlich immer, entweder gar nicht oder nur mit starken Verzögerungen zu erreichen.
Jetzt werde ich es mir hier gemütlich machen. Meine Buchliste ist importiert. Jetzt muss ich nur noch ein wenig aufräumen.
Meine Interessen liegen hauptsächlich in history-based Romane, SciFi, Crime & Thriller, ab und an auch mal Fantasy oder ein Sachbuch.
Meistens lese ich englisch-sprachige Bücher.

Großartiges Büchlein (39 Seiten in meinem eBook-Reader) über das Leisesein und die Ermutigung, nicht über jedes Stöckchen springen zu müssen.

A dystopian world where critical and individual thinking or human interaction is suppressed by continuous exposure to TV, speed and drugs.
Substitute TV with Social Media and you've got your actuality.
Difficult read for me as a non-native speaker but nonetheless a must-read.

... this IS a Doctor Who story. Me thinks the author wrote this story with the intend to submit it to the producers. The similarities are simply too obvious to think otherwise.
I love the TV show and I loved reading it only 3* because I believe the author not only got inspired but definitely copied an episode of Doctor Who. Either by "Cryogenic Chamber" (4th Doctor) or "A Christmas Carol" (11th Doctor). More likely the first.
Anyhow. It was an easy and quick read but I doubt there will be 3rd book in the Johnny Smythe series.

... and then I shall be free.
A short story about a witty but uneducated farm girl, how she got sold by her father to the local priest to take care of his sick wife, and how he, after his wife died, started to teach her to read and to write .. at an unspeakable cost for her.
The book starts easy. An all-day story about the hardships Mary's family has to live through to keep everyone fed. Word by word, line by line a story gets unveiled that will leave you just sad, shocked and helpless.
At first glance it might not be a happy end but for Mary, the rope could be THE happy end.
A brilliant book. If not for Christmas time I guess I could have read it in one day.

Loved reading it. Compared to the first "She who became the Sun" this one was not as compelling. In parts it was just too long and twisted.
Nonetheless I think this is a very good one to dive into the world of Mandates, Desires, queer Love, Loyalty and in the end creating something bigger than oneself.
