Finally I got to read again, this time a bestseller from Japan from Michiko Aoyama called "Frau Komachi empfiehlt ein Buch" or in English would be "What you are looking for is in the library"
The book covers 5 slice of life stories of people who are a bit lost or want a change of direction in their life, somehow end up in a public library and then would always get an extra book from the librarian after they talked to her and basically that book begins to change everything. Fabulous stories about life and the power of books, highly recommended !!! 5 out of 5 !
Sounds really interesting from your description. Thanks for the recommendation!
Haven't read much since the beginning of this year but, during the last 2 months, I did finish 3 books, yay!

"The Old Woman with the Knife" is a quirky novel about an unusual protagonist: a 65 years old female contract killer who is about to retire. Sarcastic, suspenseful, emotional.
"A Song for Tomorrow" is based on the true story of Alice Martineau, a young woman who had cystic fibrosis and who always dreamed of being a singer. Inspiring, touching and very very emotional.
"The Way Home" is a psychological thriller with the distinct style of Sebastian Fitzek, but this time (perhaps because I've read most of his books) I found the content more raw and triggering, as well as intentionally more overcomplicated than necessary, and the plot-twists not that shocking as in his other books. Not as good as expected...
Have a great reading month, dear Book Club family!
Always looking forward to your reading updates and recommendations :)

I would recommend "The Therapy" and "The Package". Those are the ones I rated higher.

I hope it was a good month for everyone I couldn't finish any book this month i'm still on a little life hopefully i can finish it soon and share a bit. Happy reading for this month!!
No worries! There are some good months and there are some not very good. Reading even a few pages is what matters!

Did you like it ? I've heard everything about this book. Very good reviews and others that said it was so annoying. So I thought about it before I started it.
It was good. I think I might've enjoyed it more if I had read it instead of doing the audiobook because there were a few characters with the same name and the way the story jumped from person to person had me feeling a little lost but I do remember enjoying it nonetheless. It's definitely a lot and I can see why people found it annoying but you should still give it a try.
