#sundayshelfie! Happy Sunday all❤️ — If you wonder why I took a side profile pic of my bookshelf instead of the whole shelf, it was because quite a lot of baby stuff were randomly put on the right side of my bookshelf...😂😂😂 I need to sort them out before I can take a pic of my whole shelf again. Otherwise you are going to see stuff like baby wipes, nappy, thermometer etc on there😂 — I am currently reading Vintage 1954 by Antoine Laurain! The time travel historical fiction set in Paris which I am loving so much. I was supposed to be buddy reading this with the lovely @heapsofbooks but I was falling behind!😂She finished it a few days ago and loved it! I am 50% in and can’t wait to finish it and tell you all about it❤️ — Also, @quercusbooks @anabooks will be hosting a discussion about The Night Tiger by @yangszechoo every Monday at 8pm in the next few weeks. I have done my “homework” and am ready for our discussion tomorrow! Can’t wait. This is a very enchanting and unique book so far for me. Love it. Make sure you follow #nighttigertogether to see what we are talking about tomorrow🐯❤️ — #shelfiesunday #bookshelves #blackbookshelf #bookcollector #bookaccount #booknerds #bookpics #booktower #booksbooksbooks #booksofig #readersofig

#bookstoread Girl, Balancing by Helen Dunmore. — Helen Dunmore is one of my favourite authors. She has written some of the best selling historical fictions such as The Siege, The Lie which I have thoroughly enjoyed and loved. She passed away in 2017 leaving behind this remarkable collection of short stories. — Short stories include: The Nina Stories Taken in Shadows Esther to Fanny Rose, 1944 Dancers’ Feet Grace Poole Her Testimony — “With her trademark imagination and gift for making history human, she explores the fragile ties between passion, love, family, friendship and grief, often through people facing turning points in their lives”. — Hardback of this book is available now. Thank you so much @najmafinlay @hutchinson_books for sending me this beautiful finished paperback copy of the book. It means so much to read Helen’s last work. One I shall always recommend to my bookfriends❤️ — #helendumore #girlbalancing #shortstories #shortstoriescollection #bookcollector #bookaccount #booknerds #bookpics #beautifulcover #beautifulbooks #bookdragon

#upcomingrelease In The Full Light of The Sun by Clare Clark — I received this stunning copy from @viragopress the other day and I just know I am going to love this! A historical fiction set in Berlin during WWII. Inspired by true event, this book combines war and art to fully explore human nature in the face of adversity. — This book is coming out on 28 Feb and is one you should definitely add to your list. I will be part of the blog tour later this month so stay tuned!❤️ — In the Full Light of the Sun follows the fortunes of three Berliners caught up in a devastating scandal of 1930s' Germany. It tells the story of Emmeline, a wayward, young art student; Julius, an anxious, middle-aged art expert; and a mysterious art dealer named Rachmann who are at the heart of Weimar Berlin at its hedonistic, politically turbulent apogee and are whipped up into excitement over the surprising discovery of thirty-two previously unknown paintings by Vincent van Gogh. Based on a true story, unfolding through the subsequent rise of Hitler and the Nazis, this gripping tale is about beauty and justice, and the truth that may be found when our most treasured beliefs are revealed as illusions. Brilliant on authenticity, vanity and self-delusion, it is a novel for our times. #inthefulllightofthesun #wwiifiction #historicalfiction #beautifulbooks #beautifulbookcovers #orangebook #bookpics #booktower #bookspines #bookcollector #booknerds #bookaccount

📝What type of book are you automatically drawn to? — The Lost Children Archive by Valeria Luiselli is one perfect example of the type of book I love. Literary fiction that runs deep and will bound to make you reflect and think about this book days after finishing it. This book is out on 7 March and it is going to be huge this year! — Thank you so much @livmarmar at @4thestatebooks for sending me this copy! My type of book! Stay tuned for my review❤️ — A family in New York packs the car and sets out on a road trip. A mother, a father, a boy and a girl, they head south west, to the Apacheria, the regions of the US which used to be Mexico. They drive for hours through desert and mountains. They stop at diners when they’re hungry and sleep in motels when it gets dark. The little girl tells surreal knock knock jokes and makes them all laugh. The little boy educates them all and corrects them when they’re wrong. The mother and the father are barely speaking to each other. Meanwhile, thousands of children are journeying north, travelling to the US border from Central America and Mexico. A grandmother or aunt has packed a backpack for them, putting in a bible, one toy, some clean underwear. They have been met by a coyote: a man who speaks to them roughly and frightens them. They cross a river on rubber tubing and walk for days, saving whatever food and water they can. Then they climb to the top of a train and travel precariously in the open container on top. Not all of them will make it to the border. In a breath-taking feat of literary virtuosity, Lost Children Archive intertwines these two journeys to create a masterful novel full of echoes and reflections – a moving, powerful, urgent story about what it is to be human in an inhuman world. — #thelostchildrenarchive #literary #literaryfiction #mytypeofbook #bookstack #classicliterature #bookcollector #bookdragon #bookobsessed #booknerds #booksofig #booksbooksbooks #classiclit #prettybooks #bookshelves #bookpics #bookspines #bookcommunity
