April TBR

Hello and welcome to some of the new people on this channel! I back film most of my content for at least a week or two, so this is filmed pre the lovely shout out from @katiejlumsden so I won't reference it directly in this video. But a lovely thank you to Katie and a warm welcome to new faces who haven't seen me before. I have an eclectic mix of genres on this channel, of which I think this TBR is fairly reflective of that. :)

Coming Up for Air - George Orwell
Another Country - James Baldwin

I get you. I had a bunch of tbr books waiting for a couple of months…. Going through some sad life stuff so i coped with reshelving books. 🤷‍♀️. I just dont feel it. I picked one book for next and thats as far as i can handle at this time

Your husbands reaction to you cleaning from a great audio book😂❤❤❤

[audreyapproved]

Black Wave has been on my TBR forever. I am also hoping An Immense World will be really good!

[sgriffin]

I'm thinking The Darkness Echoing would be an interesting read due to the juxtaposition of "darkness" and "entertaining". I'm all for that! 😄

Emily, you could write the perfect book on working in a circus, think about it.

thanks for recommending Silent Fury a couple videos ago! I really enjoyed it, and it was a good follow up to Cobalt Red.

Yes, more biology videos please haha. Ed Yong is so good.

Blimey, electric mix, you're telling me. I am about to start Butter by Asako Yuzuki, the minute I saw the following on the back of the book 'There are two things that I simply cannot tolerate: Feminists and Margarine.' I just couldn't resist it. Enjoy your reading.

I really hope you like Sense and sendibility it's my favourite Austen book. I also dislike Emma, and Northanger Abbey is my second favourite.

I read An Immense world and yes, it’s good. But for me…. it was SO much information, my little brain is only going to hold onto so much. There are a LOT of footnotes in every chapter (too many it felt like). Wondering how that translates in an audio book?? 🤔 I so want to read I Contain Multitudes but am afraid of information overload 😵‍💫 Last year I committed to reading The Count of Monte Cristo in Q1 this year… 😬 Haven’t started. Looks like I’ll just commit to “2024”. 😂
