| A gift from my Portuguese editor, as I wanted to read some Portuguese literature while I was in Lisbon. Unsettling, uncomfortable, and beautifully written. I have never read a novel about colonialism from the perspective of a settler – a returned set ...more | |

| So much pain, loss, love, and hope in these pages. Farah and I have been friends for eight years, and I know many parts of this story, and still it tore my heart out. It took such bravery to write this, I cannot even imagine. What a gift. | |

July '18 "Underrated & Unappreciated" Book ?
July is fast approaching, and so it’s time to vote for next’s month Underrated & Unappreciated book. Originally the books set for July were said to be final. However, the book chosen for Underrated and Unappreciated, (The Poppy War - R.F Kuang) is still a new release. It came out last month, May 1st. And as the rules go, all books must have been on market for a whole tree months prior. This rule was to assure that everyone had an easy time going about acquiring the books. New releases can prove a struggle to find.
That said many of us, myself included, were looking forward to reading Poppy War.
So after some consideration, I've decided to put it in to vote. All in favor with continuing along and reading The Poppy War - R.F Kuang.
Or
Those who'd rather read a book a little more accessible. For which I picked two highly underrated books.
- Forest of a Thousand Lanterns - Julie C. Dao
- Morbito: The Guardian of the Spirit - Nahoko Uehashi
Poll will last a week. Book with the most votes win. Please vote considerable.
Note: Shall The Poppy War lose the vote, we will be having a group buddy read of the book. So no worries to those who've already went about retrieving the book.
