#ASuperiorSpectre by @literaryminded is a disturbing & masterful read. Finely crafted it recalls the classic prose of an earlier time while tackling futurist notions as well 1860s Scotland. Jeff the #wmp anti-hero is an extreme example of the type: invading, colonising, exploiting & using the heroine Leonora's life for his own idle pleasure, only questioning his morality too late & after great harm. As such he is a flawed, disturbed, complex #humberthumbert character in the #metoo era. Go Bethea ✊️what restraint she showed! 😉👑 wished Some other characters came to very sticky ends! Kudos, Angela on this achievement. I know I'm so lucky to be published by a great writer 🙏🏼✨#teamEcho . Have you read it? What did you think? Re the artwork: I try to #bookstagram using relevant or visually harmonious selections from my art collection, architecture, plants etc. Here I had 2 really relevant art #photos 1 my #DavidBowie signed #TheArcher ( #superFan ⚡️status is something I share with Angela 🙌🏼 ) & 2 is a #dooLough #ireland as it is related to Leonora's beloved highlands was hard to avoid #shelfie reflection! #amreading #tbr #books #womenwriters #bookworm #author #authorsofinstagram #writer #writerslife #writersofinstagram bookstagrammer #reading #bibliophile #venturapress #currentlyreading #booklove #igreads #bookofthemonth

Paul is Holdenesque: facing modern teen challenges in 6eme #Paris #iloveyoutoomuch by @aliciadrake75 accurate depiction of shimmering exterior hiding decaying interior of people & place. I lived in France 🇫🇷for 8 years it spoke to me #amreading #tbr #womenwriters #bookstagram #books

Doesn't this antique greyhound look like my Zelda? It's from the #Warlight era and could belong to one of the main characters actually... 🤔😉#literary #art #birthdaypresent

Finished #warlight by #Ondaatje. Set in murky post WWII not during war (EnglishPatient). Has great visual imagery, unreliable memory & loyalty themes. #greyhounds feature heavily including doping - hard to read having a greyhound fur baby. The cover design is strange featuring a type of dog not mentioned in the book. But being Ondaatje people would buy it with a brown paper cover. 'The English Patient' is still my favourite (and the Booker's 😉) what do others think? Re book 📚 and cover 🤔? Thought my #lighthouse light was a good background considering the book's metaphors & plot... #amreading #tbr

$Defend it OR lose it! Great sign at #saveourabc #brisbane rally. Clear choice people: get lobbying #auspol ✅🙌🏼#abc The ABC fosters Australian stories, voices and culture in all forms. It is our shared identity. It provides cohesion in a fractured world. You'll miss it when it's gone 🆘😕$

#AtlanticBlack by #ASPatric what befalls Katerina on board 🚢 can be read as an allegory for what's about to befall Europe in WWII. It's all grim & men behaving very badly. Started on #holiday in #Vanuatu where I did my #cover #homage 👌🏼😉#tbr #beach #beachlife #sea #coral

Happy Launch 🚀 Night to @sally.piper.writer for #geographyoffriendship #krisolsson #booklaunch #avidreader #books #booklover #authors supporting each other! 😍✅📚
