Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

All other Harry Potter books, I have read straight through for the most part. Been at this for several days, as struggling with the format of it being a play some. It hasn't "sucked me in".

"The lonely city" by Olivia Laing

In this non-fiction book Laing conducts an investigation into what it means to be alone, how loneliness might be redeem and embraced. The lonely city is New York which Laing explores by way of art.

Referring to Edward Hoppers urban scenes: "[...] it also replicates one of the central experiences of being alone: the way a feeling of separation, of being walled off or penned in, combines with a sense of near-unbearable exposure"

Not one to just read one book at a time, here’s another :-).

Inheriting Edith by Zoe Fishman

Based on the synopsis, I thought this was going to be a deep and insightful work of fiction looking at aging parents, suicide, and family relationships. But I just got the first hint that there may be a bit of a romance woven in... why tarnish a perfectly good story...hm.

The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck : A counter intuitive approach to living a good life by Mark Manson

Crude and in-your-face but thought provoking nonetheless. Only 1/3 way in so far, and I haven’t put it down yet.

The image of Gertrude Stein wailing to Alice B. Toklas, "Don't, pussy, please don't, pussy" has retained space in my brain for 25 years, thanks to this book.

I'm enjoying chuckling my way through Johnathan Unleashed, a short novel by Meg Rosoff.

"A wise and witty hit...Rosoff explores how twenty somethings find their feet in the big city, face up to the horror of entry-level employment, and figure out who they really love..A loveable novel that has the power to make readers of all ages laugh."
