[BoatieBird]

What did you think?

I enjoyed it very much.
I love a book that transports you to another time and place (in this case 17th century Amsterdam) and this did it very well.

41. A brief stop in the road from Auschwitz- Goran Rosenberg. Norwegian son of polish holocaust survivors traces his parents' stories by travelling backwards from their life in provincial Norway to the camps, trying to understand them, and the burden of memory, along the way.

46. Do no harm- Henry Marsh. Fascinating book about neurosurgery and the practise of medicine in general. Very scathing about politicians and NHS management, very honest about his own motivations and feelings, while at the same time endearingly self aware and dismissive of his own pomposity. Sometimes wish he would go into a bit more detail- he started to talk about how the brain is just goo and electrons and yet this produces feelings and them suddenly stopped and said 'but it's far too complicated to think about so I just got on with the operation'.... I wanted him to follow his thought path! But on the plus side he wears his learning lightly, and it's a very interesting but still easy read. Fascinating book.

28/50 The Shock of the Fall, Nathan Filer - really really awesome book. About grief and mental health and family. Just great.

I've downloaded this but not read it yet, had half a mind to read it on holiday, but perhaps I'll try something a bit more cheerful!

I've downloaded this but not read it yet, had half a mind to read it on holiday, but perhaps I'll try something a bit more cheerful!

Although it has those themes it really isn't depressing. There are sad moments, but its actually quite uplifting and funny in parts. Well I found it like that anyway.

 

[BoatieBird]

Maybe I'll give it a go then.
I've got the latest Roy Grace book from Peter James, and Caitlin Moran's How To Be a Woman to get through first though.
