@mradcaqbdb 6 месяцев назад

All That She Carried garnered great acclaim on my side of the pond over the last year/year and a half. That is the one that immediately jumps out to me and one I’ve wanted to read in the past. I, unlike Simon, positively adored Laura Cumming’s last book, On Chapel Sands. It was my #1 book, fiction or non-fiction a couple years ago. So while I’m a bit hesitant on the topic, I think I will probably pick up this one because I like her writing and it looks gorgeous. Some People Need Killing is also a possibility. In general, the memoirs are pulling me more than the other books, but absolute hurrah! to have another prize for women!

@louisesavidgemuses4135 6 месяцев назад

Interesting what you say about Cummings. I’ve not read anything of hers so will come to it blind. I’m loving the reading so far and am thrilled by the whole concept. Happy non-fiction Reading! 🙏🙏🙏💜💜💜📚📚📚

Quite interested in Wifedom, The Britannias, Intervals, A Flat Place and Young Queens. So maybe those first and then we’ll see what the shortlist brings? Thanks so much for sharing your reactions!

@kathleenwalsh3556 5 месяцев назад

Hi L and S a joy to listen to too. Re the dictionary book: Simon Winchester's intriguing Surgeon of Crowthorne is also about the creation of dictionary. As for Naomi Klein , she's been interviewed here in NZ lately and talked about being confused wth Naomi Wolf (the feminist and conspiracy theorist) and has consequently received a torrent of abuse.

I had just got How to Say Babylon on audio from my library! Is there anything better than Carribean accents on audiobooks? I really don't think so. I've got an hour to go in my current audiobook and then it's up next, should be able to start it later on today I hope. I've just borrowed All That She Carried on audio, and A Flat Place as an ebook. Of the books I haven't heard of before, a few are very interesting for me, Intervals isn't out in Australia til May...
