Throne of Glass series

A young female assassin called Celaena Sardothien, she attempts to win her freedom back and accidentally makes friends along the way but there are many secrets in her past she can’t ignore. The best fantasy series I’ve read, amazing character development and world building as well as a thrilling story and lots of intense battles!

Divine Rivals

Two unlikely friends write to each other with the help of their magical typewriters in a time of war. A mixture of fantasy and world war 1, this was an interesting read and I was immediately immersed in the world and its lore I fell in love with Iris and Roman!

Not strangers just people that have not meet yet

Arthur

Hi, This attempt transpired by a Historical Non-Fiction, however I'd be also interested in the Classics of Literature like the Crime & Punishment, Stranger or Metamorphosis etc.. How often I can attend a Book Reading session would depend on what is offered and I'd assume it would be at least one day in the week. I'm retired and I have no ties to strain me in any way. I hoped that in a reading group I can cultivate my reading(or as a listener) also discuss with others about what's been read as well. I feel there's so much to read yet I haven't read enough!

Arthur recommends:

Hunger

by Knut Hamsun | Learn more and buy

I think someone broke and starving could not be narrated any better than that. First publication has been done in 1956 and I sincerely believe that greatest authors lived at the last quarter of the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th.
