I recently finished Ravelstein by Saul Bellow. Next, I'll likely pick up Punch Me Up to the Gods: A Memoir by Brian Broome. I am also working my way achingly slowly through From Here to Eternity: The Restored Edition by James Jones.

I am reading Submarine by Jon Dunthorne and so far so good. It's quite fun to read which is exactly what I was looking for in this moment.
I'm finishing up The Daughters of Cain. I'd only read one Inspector Morse book before, in Spanish so I had to deal with all that vocabulary as much as the plot itself, funding the experience quite different than the videos.
Working leisurely through The Vanishing: Faith, Loss, and the Twilight of Christianity in the Land of the Prophets and Short Takes: Brief Encounters with Contemporary Nonfiction.
so im new to this site but work in a book store! So today Im picking up In Deeper Waters by F.T. Lukens(also first time linking books hope it works right)
Currently reading My Sweet Orange Tree by José Mauro de Vasconcelos. It’s so lovely!
Just finished The House in the Cerulean Sea! It was so good! Started The Lost Apothecary last night and am really enjoying what I've read so far!
Nonfiction by a gay woman in the 1930s (married to a gay man): All the Roads Are Open: The Afghan Journey. I read her travel companion's story of the trip The Cruel Way: Switzerland to Afghanistan in a Ford, 1939 earlier.
Reading Tell It to the Bees for book club and enjoying it so far. Finished Red Rock Baby Candy over the weekend which is probably a really, excellent book but not for me.
The Art of Language Invention: From Horse-Lords to Dark Elves, the Words Behind World-Building by David J. Peterson.
I have just read Il nous reste les mots by Georges Salines: it is the dialogue between the father of one of the victims of the terrorist attack at the Bataclan in Paris in 2015 and the father of one of the terrorists. A very emotional book.And I have started Afterparties by Anthony Veasna So.
The Gay Mens Press reprint of The Feathers Of Death/Simon Raven
I just finished Lightning Wingman by Thomas Edward Willard, which isn't very long. Next, I'll start on For the Love of Many by Vivian Dunn.
I'm about half way through Sterling Karat Gold, which is super queer, quite excellent, and absolutely bonkers!
