What are you reading right now?

I'm
Reading my lovely wife by Mark lukach, it's a bio of his wife's mental illness and as a wife with mental illness it's both touching and sad for me. I highly recommend

Have recently finished Lincoln in the Bardo by George Saunders. Loved it!! Honestly one of my favourite all timers. Can't stop thinking about it. Just started All the Light we Cannot see.

Re-read The Handmaid's Tale which I loved even more than when I read it at school.

Then The Circle, which I enjoyed as an easy read.

Just finished The Hours by Michael Cunningham brilliant and very thought provoking I had not read Mrs Dalloway prior to reading this but I may well do so now. I have just picked up Jeffrey Archers first book in the Clifton chronicles it's been sitting on my shelf for so long

I'm reading Extra Virgin by Annie Hawes. Fantastic locations and characters....great escapism!

The Essex Serpent by Sarah Perry - I am enjoying it

The escape by C.L. Taylor

Prussian Blue - Philip Kerr . Need to unwind with a familiar voice and I'm saving the latest Sara Paretsky for my hols.

I've just finished Into the Water. Thought it was crap.

I'm reading American Gods - Neil Gaiman. Gripped so far. I saw the advert for the series on Amazon Prime and I thought it looked interesting so I ordered the book to read first. Adaptations usually aren't as good.

Reading Canada by Richard Ford - seems interesting but only two chapters in. Just finished Year of the Runaways which was really good.

Listening to Burmese Days by George Orwell - it's not really doing it for me yet.

Downloaded and halfway through the woman in cabin 10 after reading this thread. Struggling to get stuff done as I just want to read this book!

Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine by Gail Honeyman - such a lovely book , if you enjoyed The Rosie Effect then you wil lenjoy this one!

I'm now reading The Bees. It's a bit weird but I'm hoping it will get better.

Thank you to whoever recommended Defending Jacob. Finished it today and it was really good. I used to read a lot of legal procedurals but got bored with them and this was a refreshing take on the genre with a heck of a twist at the end.

Finished The Book of You just now. I enjoyed it, despite always being just that little bit disappointed with the denouement of thrillers in general.

About to start The Handmaid's Tale - read it years ago, so I'm interested to see how much I remember. I was big into Margaret Atwood then - that, or AA Gill's biography.

Reading Silent Voices, #4 in the Vera series.
Have just read the first three and really enjoying them.
Have to read Housewife 54 by Nella Last next for book club

I just started reading how dare the sun rise, it's based on the war in the Congo.

I'm just finishing up Fried Green Tomatoes At the Whistle Stop Cafe. Really enjoyed it.
Before that I read A Man Called Ove and I would recommend it to EVERYBODY!!

read the Handmaid's Tale a few years ago and have been watching the series and think it has been done brilliantly!

Just started The Book of You, by Clare Kendal. Reminiscent of Into the Darkest Corner, by Elizabeth Haynes. I'm enjoying it so far, but I like psychological thrillers.

I'm reading Stay with Me by Ayobami Adebayo - a very powerful novel which I would think would make every mother weep. Gives an amazing insight into Nigerian society and the tragic moments are offset by some lovely humorous touches. Couldn't put the book down.

I loved the Rachel Abbott books!.
I like psychological thrillers so when I finish a book I just buy one of the recommended books at the end.
Too close is the book I'm reading at the moment and I'm struggling to get into it. It will not defeat me!

The Bees by Laline Paul. It's hard going but I'm determined to persevere. I've started it twice and given up but I'm further in this time and getting into it.

I'm reading The Lacuna by Barbara Kingsolver, having read The Poisonwood Bible many years ago and enjoyed it. I saw an exhibition of Frieda Kahlo's work in March, so am looking forward to reading a factional account of a period in her life.

I'm on holiday next week and PPs have reminded me of some authors I have in my TBR pile. I don't think I'll be investing in A Little Life before I go. It doesn't sound like my idea off a holiday read.

To the poster who wanted Margaret Atwood recommendations other than A Handmaid's Tale, my favourite Atwood book is Cat's Eye. It's quasi-autobiographical, so not as sci fi as most of her fiction, but well-written, with interesting characters.

His Bloody Project by Graeme Macrae Burnet. Absolutely fascinating account of life in the 1800s in the remote Scottish Highlands and a murder whose protagonist you know, but not why they did it.
