🇬🇧I finally, finally finished my first book for #april and it’s a #reread for me, kind of. #gaudynight by #dorothylsayers is one of my #favourite books of all time. I take it with me to every #holiday now I’ve read it for the first time in English and I still really loved it. It’s just such a great #lovestory and really #romantic and I love #harrietvane and #peterwimsey and their relationship. I hope I can read more now, but #uni is so busy at the moment. ~~~~~~~~~ 🇩🇪 Endlich hab ich mein erstes Buch für April gelesen. Es hat echt lange gedauert, aber die Uni ist im Moment echt anstrengend. #aufruhrinoxford ist eins meiner absoluten #lieblngsbücher ich nehme es in jeden Urlaub mit und liebe die ganze Geschichte einfach sehr. Es ist so eine erwachsen und tolle #liebesgeschichte und hach manchmal bin ich ein bisschen neidisch. Jetzt hab ich es zum ersten Mal auf englisch gelesen und es war immer noch toll. #detectivenovel #bookstagram #bookstagramdeutschland #britishcrimebooks #lordpeterwimsey #murdermystery #booklover #littlegingerbookninja #love #orangeisthenewblack https://www.instagram.com/p/CN-pdfeBAj0/?igshid=hufsyaxrwset

🇬🇧This is my #april #tbrpile #gaudynight by #dorothylsayers is an old favourite, but I’m reading it in English for the first time. #themusicofwhathappens by #billkonigsberg and #schuld by #ferdinandvonschirach were #christmasgifts I wanted to read #themidnightlibrary by #matthaig for the longest time, because it sound really cool and looks so beautiful and now one of my best friends gifted it to me this week as a late #birthdaypresent ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 🇩🇪Meine #tbr für April. #aufruhrinoxford ist eines der Bücher die ich immer wieder lesen kann und die irgendwie #selfcare sind. Jetzt lese ich es zum ersten Mal auf English. #diemitternachtsbibliothek wollte ich schon lange lesen, weil sich das Buch so interessant anhört und auch super schön aussieht. Die anderen beiden waren Weihnachtsgeschenke, die ich jetzt endlich lese. #currentlyreading #youngadultbooks #youngadultfiction #germanliterature #youngadultlgbt #lgbtqliterature #crimenovel #lordpeterwimsey #britishcrimefiction #bookstagram #bookaddict #bookblogger #bookstagramdeutschland #littlegingerbookninja https://www.instagram.com/p/CNNdstxBixo/?igshid=1uiq8if057l7m

This #bookhaul is fully ridiculous, especially considering how little reading I’ve been getting done. Sometimes I go to the bookstore and can barely commit to a single book. Today was not one of those days. . . Actually, I went to pick up the book from my #witmonth book exchange, got immersed in shopping, then left without picking up the book. I guess I will have to go back in a few days? I did made a few other witmonth selections, though — THE CHANDELIER by Clarice Lispector, and HAPPINESS, AS SUCH by Natalia Ginzburg. Funnily enough, I think I bought my first book by both of them during last year’s Women in Translation month. . . I have been super into baking doughnuts lately, and have been plowing through random recipes on Pinterest, so this DOUGHNUTS cookbook seemed like the obvious next step. . . Pretty much everything else was an impulse purchase. It was my first post-quarantine bookstore trip without my kids, and I guess I got a little carried away. But I had been waiting for THE DEEP to come out in paperback, and my cousin had just been telling me how mush she loved GAUDY NIGHT. And I have heard so many good things about MEM, finding a used copy in such good condition was a delight. And SHAME was maybe because this month’s read the world challenge is India. Which leaves INTIMATIONS, which I picked up because it was tiny and also Zadie Smith and it sounded fascinating. . . I need a readathon, or to declare one of my own, and soon. . . #gaudynight #dorothylsayers #zadiesmith #intimations #happinessassuch #nataliaginzburg #thechandelier #claricelispector #shame #salmanrushdie #thedeep #riverssolomon #mem #bethanycmorrow #doughnuts #laraferroni https://www.instagram.com/p/CD7SSQ3ATBH/?igshid=2vngifugj6yt
