What book are currently reading?

What are your thoughts on the book so far?

I am currently reading [i]The Dirty Book Club[/i] by Lisi Harrison. 🤭 I am only in the first 60 pages, but so far I am actually enjoying the book. It's kinda dark, but at the same time very light-hearted. I picked the book up on a whim when I was at the store because I thought to myself, "My sense of humor is telling I will enjoy reading this book." 🤣

"The Girl From Venice" - Martin Cruz Smith. It's set in Italy in WWII 1942. Not too bad so far, but lacks that certain "special" quality that really good writing has. In other words, it doesn't really take you there.

@SW-User Oh nice I love historical books 😊

SW-User

@BlackBloodDemon Yeah. That aspect of it I do like.

@SW-User I just read your edit. That's a shame the writing is poor. If you like historical books, I highly recommend [i]To Live[/i] by Yu Hua. It's a very powerful story about this Chinese guy's journey from being a spoiled brat to a kindhearted peasant. It's taken place during the Chinese Civil War and the Cultural Revolution. A very deep and moving book (having tissues nearby is recommended). 🙂
