It's been a best seller in Greece for years and I've been meaning to read it for ages xD
The story is set in 1854, during the Ottoman occupation of Greece and it is an ode. The novel follows the story of two boys, a Greek and a Turkish, who become brotherly friends, seen from both points of view, representing an entire turbulent era.
Drama Fairy :So, I joined this club beginning of this month and to my dissapointment, I did not even read a single page. The book I selected was Obsession in Death by J.D Robb. :/
Now that tomorrow is March, I decided to change my book and surprisingly am enjoying it. Has anyone read this book?
Julia Quinn's Bridgeton - The Duke and I ♥️
it is a good book, but the other 11 sequel are pretty much alike and the same

3. David Copperfield by Charles Dickens. I'm listening to this one via a podcast (Audiobook Break) which is serializing the book by dropping three chapters a week. I'm only on chapter two. but the podcast has nine chapters so far.
So, it looks like I'm taking four books into March with me. Happy reading to all :D

Read that in audio is a good idea, I dropped this book about 10 years ago LOL, tooooo sweet for me
fatema on a break:[The Hunting Party] was an easy read.
[The Mortal World] is the 5th book of The Invisible Library series so I struggled to keep up with the characters and the events; because I didn't read the previous novels. The story is about 3 worlds that try to sign a peace treaty but the talks are stopped when a diplomat is murdered. The 3 worlds choose a representative from their race to work together with the other 2 to find the killer and the motive.
[March read] The Courage to be Disliked (non-fiction)
[Comment] 1 book and a half! Not bad for an ex-bookworm xD
If you couldn't read as much as you thought you would, don't feel bad. We are all awakening an old habit and that is not an easy accomplishment. Be proud of your progress and next month is another opportunity to read more.
Everytime you get frustrated by a drama or it makes you sleepy, close it and reach out for your book!
Let me know about the courage one, I watched the movie on netflix related to this
I found out about the book club & want to join. I want to start reading more books again.

Eleven Minutes by Paulo Coelho
(this would compensate for January :p)
I've read over half of it July last yr, started again recently and get it done. I love how fast-paced, engaging, and straightforward it was written especially the first half. Second part was more intense and dives deeper into spiritual level (as well as its limit)... the innermost feeling or energy that one can have in terms of sexuality.
My fave parts are:
• the way Maria was conflicted in a short period of time when she made the decision in the restaurant
• the exchange of gifts that was sentimental
• and the story of the bird about freedom
Some lines hit me, but there was also a part that it became a hard read coz I couldn't relate nor agree with the doings and philosophical views. Towards the end, the history was a nice inclusion, and the friend's reveal was quite ironic.
Overall, I like my February picks and gave them both a 3/5 rating.
My next stop: Trigger Warning by Neil Gaiman
