I did not want this to end

What a brilliant, beautiful book. I loved Piranesi as a character and the mystery that surrounds him and the house he inhabits. I enjoyed, too, the invocation of Manchester in the 80s and the flavour of dark academe that reminded me of The Secret History.

And in a similar vein, I’ve sidestepped the new stuff by revisiting the BBC adaptation of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, from one of my absolute favourite books by Susanna Clarke.

It’s even better than I remember it from - blimey - eight years ago. The cast are uniformly fantastic, the script is nimble and witty, and, of course, the story is a delight.

Book no. 2: Piranesi, by Susanna Clarke.

An amazing tale set in a disorienting house with endless rooms and statues, and the sea flowing through it, that appears to have only two occupants.

Honestly I could have filled all 7 choices with books though 🙂

Nach dem wunderbaren von hab ich mir nun von und geschnappt, übertragen vom Und natürlich kam die gebundene Ausgabe von ohne Lesebändchen. Aber rein instinktiv bekam das rote Buch von mir ein blaues Bändchen und wie heißen due Hauptfiguren? Genau Rot und Blau.
!
Das Buch ist bisher großartig. Erneut eine ungewöhnliche Freundschaft im Zeitreisemantel, was ich so noch nicht las.
