Where will other chains go? Link up below or post your link in the comments section. I’ll finish on a less-grumpy note – Boyne’s The Heart’s Invisible Furies was one of my favourite books of 2018 – absolutely everything I want in a novel.
I guess I won’t be re-reading that one!Īnother book I lent to someone that never found its way back was The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas by John Boyne – disappointing because the first edition of that book had no blurb, so you really didn’t have any hint of what was ahead. I lent My Sweet Audrina to a friend and it was never returned. In the eighties, I read everything that Andrews wrote, and each book passed around at school. So, two rereads in 2021… Rereads are rare for me – my last was way back in 2014, and it was Flowers in the Attic by V. I’m rereading it now and it’s as good as I remember. Tartt’s inspiration for The Secret History was drawn from her time at Bennington. It was a re-read for me, and I chose it because I’m engrossed in the Once Upon a Time at Bennington College podcast, which explores Ellis’s time at university with fellow student, Donna Tartt. This month we begin with the classic novella, Ethan Frome by Edith Wharton – picked because I figured many would have read it as part of Novella November (#NovNov)Įthan Frome links to Less Than Zero by Bret Easton Ellis, my first book for this year’s #NovNov. Start at the same place as other wonderful readers, add six books, and see where you end up.
