Goodreads Monday #8
Tumblr media
Goodreads Monday is a weekly "challenge" started by Lauren's Page Turners, where you pick a random book off your TBR to highlight books that might get lost in the shuffle.
This week, I'm highlighting Frankenstein in Baghdad by Ahmed Saadawi!
From the rubble-strewn streets of U.S.-occupied Baghdad, Hadi--a scavenger and an oddball fixture at a local café--collects human body parts and stitches them together to create a corpse. His goal, he claims, is for the government to recognize the parts as people and to give them proper burial. But when the corpse goes missing, a wave of eerie murders sweeps the city, and reports stream in of a horrendous-looking criminal who, though shot, cannot be killed. Hadi soon realizes he's created a monster, one that needs human flesh to survive--first from the guilty, and then from anyone in its path. A prizewinning novel by "Baghdad's new literary star" (The New York Times), Frankenstein in Baghdad captures with white-knuckle horror and black humor the surreal reality of contemporary Iraq.
What do you think? On your TBR? Have you read it?

It's Monday, what are you reading? (11/13/23)
I like to listen to books I’ve read before because I can easily catch up to the plot if my attention strays from what I’m listening to. One of the books I just finished was an audiobook. I had read the book not too long ago and was looking forward to re-capturing what I liked about the story and maybe hearing a few things that I missed when reading it. What I forgot about was that I really don’t…

Forgotten YA Gems is now on Discord! Join us for discussions!
We’re a Goodreads/Discord group that reads YA, NA, or MG books that are at least five years old. While not necessarily “forgotten” (as many of them have lovely fanbases here on Tumblr), we focus on backlist books that aren’t getting the same attention as new releases. Feel free to join us to vote on monthly reads, participate in challenges, and talk about books!
This month's reads are Children of Blood and Bone by Tomi Adeyemi and Monday's Not Coming by Tiffany D. Jackson.
Have you read it? Is it on your TBR? What did you think?

Meet This Author: DC Gomez
Q: When did you first start writing? I have been writing for over twenty years, but only started publishing about 6 years ago. At the beginning, I was writing short stories and short scripts. Q: Why write in multiple genres when you can just stick to one genre? Working in only one genre burns me out, and I feel restricted. Switching between stories and genres keeps me creative and…
