I who have never known men review6/10/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() She writes beautifully about Korean food throughout the book, connecting specific memories to certain tastes and dishes. It’s an incredibly touching and poignant book that focuses on food, family and identity, particularly focusing on Michelle’s relationship with her Korean mother who sadly was diagnosed with cancer and passed away. I’m not a Japanese Breakfast fan (I’ve never listened to them) so I didn’t pick up Michelle Zauner’s memoir for this reason, rather I had read great reviews and was intrigued by her writing. In general, I tend to read more books during the autumn and winter months.įor more regular musings about what I’m reading, follow me on Instagram and keep an eye on my Stories. And I don’t know if its just me, but I really love reading during the colder months of the year huddling up beneath a blanket, the fire roaring and candles flickering. ![]() I actually picked up some of my favourite books of the entire year during these months, including a handful of books that immediately made it onto my list of all-time favourites that I’ll pick up and read again and again. It’s been a while since I last shared my reviews of my reads, so what follows is an edit of the books I read from September to December last year. I was under no obligation to include them in this post, and all thoughts are my own.Īpologies for the delay writing this, my final round-up of my favourite books I read in 2021. Disclaimer: some of the books mentioned below were sent to me as PR copies. ![]()

Darius the great is not okay6/8/2023 ![]() ![]() Eventually, though, Darius and Dad are able to connect more honestly-and Darius internalizes the idea that it’s not his fault when people bully or are mean to him. Darius also struggles with depression, which his Persian relatives don’t understand. Still, he never feels entirely like he fits in, as he doesn’t speak Farsi and dislikes some classic Persian foods. There, Darius makes his first real friend, Sohrab, and learns the value of having trusting, honest friendships with people (including with family members, like Mamou). ![]() Darius is forced to reevaluate his identity when his family visits Yazd, Iran to see his grandfather Babou before he dies of a brain tumor. This causes major strife between Dad and Darius indeed, the only time they get along is when they watch an episode of Star Trek every night. ![]() Bullies Trent and Chip tease him incessantly at school and work, and Dad regularly suggests that if Darius was a little more “normal” and stood up for himself, he wouldn’t get picked on. Darius lives in Portland, Oregon and doesn’t feel like he fits in at all. The novel’s protagonist, Darius is a high school sophomore and a self-described “Fractional Persian” that is, his mom is Iranian and his dad is white. ![]() Hunting ground by patricia briggs6/8/2023 ![]() ![]() Delivery with Standard Australia Post usually happens within 2-10 business days from time of dispatch. ![]() You can track your delivery by going to AusPost tracking and entering your tracking number - your Order Shipped email will contain this information for each parcel.

Brother Juniper, a Franciscan missionary, happens to witness the tragedy, and as a result, he asks the central question of the novel: "Why did this happen to those five?" He sets out to explore the lives of the five victims, and to understand why they died. The plot is deceptively simple: On July 20, 1714, "the finest bridge in all Peru" collapses and five people die. Wilder previously wrote The Bridge of San Luis Rey, his second novel, published in 1927 to worldwide acclaim. ![]() Our Town is one of the great plays, written by Thornton Wilder with the original title, "Our Town - A Play in 3 acts". ![]() The forbidden clive barker book6/7/2023 ![]() Some folks were lucky enough to have discovered The Books of Blood during their initial publication, but most of us found out about this Clive Barker guy because of that quote, which was taken out of context anyway and eventually got whittled down to “. And they sold books: “‘I have seen the future of horror and his name is Clive Barker’-Stephen King.” The name of the Maine man was, whenever possible, emblazoned across the cover of books that had nothing to do with him: King pull-quotes-either blurbs comparing the author to King or the praise of King himself-were everywhere. Many of the book covers looked the same, and the talent exhibited within ranged from laughable to sublime. ![]() The multi-media success of Stephen King had generated an industry, and in the world of publishing, mass market terror ruled. Sevin.-eds.ĭuring the mid-eighties, drugstore spin-racks and bookstore shelves were heavy with horror. Clive Barker was not available for interview, so in lieu of our usual Author Spotlight format, instead we present you with this brief appreciation of the man’s life and career by R.J. ![]() |
