TOMBOY BOOKCLUB- BURGERZ!!!
Hello!!!! I had never read anything by today’s author before, but yesterday evening to enjoy the last strands of the sun I sat down on a bench, sparked a zoot and acquainted myself. This book did more to illuminate me than the sun did, and I closed the covers after finishing with what felt likeContinue reading “TOMBOY BOOKCLUB- BURGERZ!!!”
TOMBOY BOOKCLUB- FRANKISSSTEIN!!!
Hello everyone! I chose today’s book as it definitely fits in with the Pride Month focus of exploring/championing views that challenge our heteronormative cis-gendered capitalist white supremacist patriarchy (phew that’s a lot of words to just mean BULLYBOY BULLSHIT). This book is vanguard in its scope, both experimental in it use of time in narrativeContinue reading “TOMBOY BOOKCLUB- FRANKISSSTEIN!!!”
TOMBOY BOOKCLUB- The Half God of Rainfall
Hello everyone! I actually wrote about this author very recently, but after a light summer rain I wanted to dance in thunder, hear the clouds boom (do you see I’m setting up a rain vibe?). Today’s book is a blending of modern quotidian life with epic forces of Ancient mythos, and I have just learntContinue reading “TOMBOY BOOKCLUB- The Half God of Rainfall”
TOMBOY BOOK CLUB- FRESHWATER!!!
Todays’ book has me utterly besotted. It is one of the best – in my humble opinion- that I have read recently, way up there with Audre and Patti. I first found out about it because it is one of the longlisted books for the 2019 ‘Women’s Prize for Fiction’, but, more interestingly to me,Continue reading “TOMBOY BOOK CLUB- FRESHWATER!!!”

TOMBOY BOOK CLUB- ‘Happier’ by Tal Ben-Shahar
Hello beautiful people!!!! Today’s book was actually an unexpected read for me, as I found it festering amongst neglected leaves of newspaper piling up around the computer at home. At first I was sceptical of how good it could be considering it was just a freebie. But would you give it credence, it did actuallyContinue reading “TOMBOY BOOK CLUB- ‘Happier’ by Tal Ben-Shahar”

Hello, and HAPPY WORLD BOOK DAY!!!! With my love- ever verging on compulsion- for books, it is only natural that I commemorate this glorious day! It is a universal truth that stories bring imagination, togetherness and meaning into our lives, which is why it is so heart-breaking to read about the bastard tory cuts toContinue reading “WORLD BOOK DAY!!!!!!! ❤ ❤ <3”
