All about books that I started, not finished, yet still deserve a list (mainly for the lovely cover). It’s comforting to edit this ever-growing list, which means, optimistically, I have stopped being the “start then compiled to finish” weirdo.
The Botany of Desire – A Plant’s-Eye View of the World by Michael Pollan
Calling Dr. Laura – A Graphic Memoir by Nicole J. Georges
Finally gave up after a tentative third trying.
Awatea and the Kawa Gang by Fraser Smith
The Golden Hour by Beatriz Williams
The Girl Who Reads on the Métro by Christine Féret-Fleury
Audio book by Ros Schwartz
Your Money or Your Life by Vicki Robin & Joe Dominguez
Part one is nice enough, yet all other parts are plain tool to handle the steps.
The Drunken Botanist – The Plants That Create the World’s Great Drinks by Amy Stewart
This book has quite a special perspective of plants and wine recipes, yet too many unfamiliar words for me.
Emotional Intelligence – Why It Can Matter More Than IQ by Daniel Goleman
This five-star book just is not my type.
How We Met by Michele A’Court
Stories may mean much more for the teller rather than listeners.
Umbrella Academy, Volume 1- Apocalypse Suite by Gerard Way & Various
Things That Bother Me – Death, Freedom, the Self, Etc. by Galen Strawson
I love all chapter titles yet is is a bit too professional philosophical for me.
Women Rowing North – navigating Life’s Currents and Flourishing As We Age by Mary Pipher
James K. Baxter Poems
Sold on a Monday by Kristina McMorris
Solo by Jill Mansell
The Mysterious Benedict Society by Trenton Lee Stewart
Audiobook read by Del Roy
Love the way it begins.
Game: Mr. Lemoncello’s Indoor-Outdoor Scavenger Hunt
Love the cover, only the cover.
Easy reading
Into the Wilderness by Sara Donati
The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion
The Night Ocean by Paul La Farge
I didn’t read this book at all because it’s a thriller actually. The cover is just magic. It actually glows when moved at whatever direction, totally amazing.
Truly Madly Guilty by Liane Moriarty
Well both the cover and the title are really attracting, but even after 7 chapters I was still honestly bewildered what is this novel about.
