Of books and... well, mostly just books

At work, trying to eat lunch while simultaneously typing this without getting food all over the keyboard, but I have to do a books update before I start forgetting what I've read, so:

- The Cursed Child! [Spoiler (click to open)]Scorpius is adorable, and his bromance with Albus is just ridiculous. <3 How are they not a couple by the end? Time travel is the best, and I Read more... )

rec: hp, harry potter, books

The Book Thief is on my list (to read and to watch) still. Great seeing positive reviews for it. ♥

It was on my list for ages too! Helps to have students who keep needling me into reading and watching things. :-)

I loved the Book Thief. I just passed it along to Steve to read.

I hope he likes it too! It pretty much broke me by the end, but I guess great books have a habit of doing that.

I still need to read The Book Thief.

I've read Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet - it's really good :)

I still need to read both The Book Thief and 84, Charing Cross Road. Both sound so good!

Pretty sure you'll love them both. :-)

Thanks so much for the recs, and also for the great list of books about books.

I've heard good things about 84 Charing Cross, but your description really made me want to read it. I hadn't heard of Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet but that sounds great.

You're welcome. :-) I think I'm just going to make my way through that entire list of books about books.

I'm sure you'll love 84 Charing Cross! I hadn't heard of 'Hotel' either, but it turned out to be really lovely.
