Throughout October I read six books, four I rated at five stars and two I rated at four stars, so once again, quality is winning out over quantity. A couple of them were actually pretty thick too, 600 pages and 400 pages, so I felt like I definitely got more reading time in this month, which is lovely.
22 in 2022:
Only one read for this challenge.
Review Books:
The remaining five were all review books, of which I have been receiving some fantastic titles of late.
Until next month, good reading…

Some months are like that. November is shaping up like that for me, so far.

Ooooh, you got the new Celeste Ng! How exciting! It sounds so different to her previous ones (which were both fantastic).

It was definitely different to Little Fires Everywhere, but that’s the only other one of hers I’ve read. I really enjoyed it.

A great reading list for sure and I have added “These Days” to my winter TBR pile (Thank you!)
I wanted to recommend the “Daughters of Teutobod” by Kurt Hansen. It was the perfect book club choice for my friends and I and I honestly can’t stop thinking about it. I love inspirational women’s fiction and family sagas always keep me hooked so this was a win-win. The book follows three different women from three different time periods – Gretel, Gudrun, and Samantha. I loved how these women were portrayed because even though they are “strong and inspirational characters” they are realistically shown as being human and making mistakes and adapting/persevering. You are transported from ancient Roman times to WWII to modern day Europe. You can read more about it here – http://www.kurthansenauthor.com/
Happy Reading! If you do check it out I would love to hear what you think!
