الساعة الثانية ليلا إلى دقائق ، استمع إلى موسيقى باخ ومع فنجان قهوة ساخن ، حدث معي شيء اكرهه هو نسياني لشاحن هاتفي ، هذه اهم مساويء ان تعيش بين الخيال والواقع وخاصة عندما تقرأ كتاب تستمتع ، ونا سعيد كذلك لأنها ساعات عملي الأخيرة، فغدا تبدأ الاجازة

A Break from TV to Review Some Books!
A Break from TV to Review Some Books!
It has been a really long time since I reviewed any books so here are a few that I have read in the last year including a couple that were only released in the last two or three weeks. All of these books are good and worth reading. Many are worthy Book Club additions.
Freezing Order: A True Story of Money Laundering, Murder and Surviving Vladimir Putin’s Wrath by Bill Browder ****1/2

books i owe reviews to
I am behind on Stuff but here are some books I read recently that I liked
Lavender House 1950′s queer noir. Gay cop gets fired for being gay and ends up a hard boiled PI solving one of those Rich Household Murders when the head of a soapmaking fortune falls to her death. Has TW’s but a happy ending for the MC, who sounds like Batman in the audiobook.
Legends and Lattes Orc retires from adventuring and opens a coffeehouse in a city that’s never heard of coffee (which is its own kind of funny.) She accidentally found-families herself because of course she does, and it’s got f/f in it.
A Gentleman in Moscow Smartass elegant aristocrat is sentenced to permanent house arrest in a hotel when the communists take over in Russia 100ish years ago. Book describes the next several decades of his life and all the adventures you can get up to in a small space, which are: plenty. Surprise, like the previous one this also has restaurant stuff in it so I felt very Seen by the person who recommended it to me. Has m/f in it.
A Lady for a Duke Regency m/f romance. Heroine was thought dead on the battlefield in Waterloo but instead, she’s nursed back to health in a cottage and takes the opportunity to quietly transition and return home to become the “poor companion” to her brother’s wife. Problem: her old best friend, who has a lot of Waterloo trauma himself, is at the end of his rope. He does lash out when he figures out his new love is his old lost friend, but it’s 100% selfishness not transphobia (”how could you let me think you were dead”) and there is more than enough space in the story for him to redeem himself. Just wanted to make sure y’all knew that was in there.
I also read Project Hail Mary ages ago and that was really cute. I LOVED the ending bc it was more than I was expecting by that point. I went in nearly completely cold and that’s why I’m not describing the plot, just that someone I trusted said that they thought I’d like it. So I’m gonna let that be the spoiler: that it was ultimately cozy enough for the likes of me. :P

I shouldn’t be surprised, but I just finished A Gentleman In Moscow by Amor Towles today and it is SUCH a Logan book, like I know they chose it on purpose but WOW
It’s about a former Count, stripped of title and put under house arrest in a hotel. He’s very smart, has a lot of teacher qualities, after a while feels like he’s being ignored, and with the patience of a saint, slowly figures out a way to escape.
I’m talking like 30 years imprisonment but he learns and pays attention and adapts. There’s so much in here that all points to Logan relating to and loving this book, well done. It was very good.
