Book Haven discussion

Hello. I noticed this group didn’t have a “what are you reading” general chat. I hope it’s okay I created one.

Reading “Interaction Ritual: Essays in Face to Face Behavior” by Erving Goffman. It’s very good! Also getting through “Charisma Myth” by Olivia Fox Cabane, much more begrudgingly. One of these books is much shorter and breezier than the other, but one had much more substance..

I’m reading My Magnolia Summer by Victoria Benton Frank very interesting and hard to put down

I just finished ' The Tenant', by Freida McFadden and did so in 3 days. Loved the book with the constant plot twists. It was rather slow in the start but got much better as I kept reading it.

Charisma Myth has significantly grown on me, I’m glad I stuck with it and gave it a chance. I guess it pushed me through a weak slump.

Currently reading IQ84 and loving it

The Brotherhood of the Rose by David Morrell

Great choice, Jamie. I loved 1Q84

Ooooh. I've seen some wonderful art for a version of La Morte d'Arthur

I have completed The Artistic Anatomy of Trees. I have no memory of when this happened, except a vague estimate of it happening between november and december, but my paperback is thoroughly highlighted and annotated. So that's that.

'Now We Shall Be Entirely Free' by Andew Miller.

Very slow-moving but brilliantly written historical novel.

Anyone have any recommendations for me of historical novels set in 20th century small town America?
