The Secret Lives of Church Ladies sounds really interesting!

[@fayesparallelstories]

It was really strong! Fiction very rarely works for me as an audiobook, so it's almost more praise that I still rated it highly 😊

Happy New Year! Nothing to say about your Christmas romances - but impressed with the different countries you traveled to in December 😇

I may have been trying to catch up to my reading goal 😄😇

Happy birthday, and happy new year! I have only read one Lispector but also not liked It at all...

[@fayesparallelstories]

Happy Birthday? It was coincidentally one of my dog's birthdays but not mine 😄 I fear Clarice Lispector may just not be for us then!

I read Lovely War by Julie Berry, it's WWI love stories narrated by Greek gods, I gave it 4.5 the only down sides were it was clean and straight and I was indifferent to one of the couples; overall good though. Emily Wilde's Encyclopedia of Faeries was good but also clean. I enjoyed Madame Bovary quite a lot, and has a great deal of things to talk about with others. Fun fact a polyglot is a person that speaks 6 or more languages, and a hyperpolyglot is someone who speaks 20 or more.

I love the comment on polyglots and hyperpolyglots 😀 One of the best things with many classics, I often find, is that you have loads you can discuss and usually also quite a few people, who have also read the books. Alas, I have not read Madame Bovary. I think it is only one I would tackle with a group of other readers. Again, you had such a mix of books - I always enjoy how your reading really can't be put into one box!
