"Wow, you are reading a book while having a six weeks old baby?!" Ähm, yes, I do.
Infact, I'm currently reading three books, akways using the one which is in reach while I'm nursing or trying to make little A fall asleep or whatever.
I need this to stay sain. To have some conversation, or aka words, from a grown up. Or else soon I would forget how to speak in whole sentences when being alone the whole day with the baby ;)
So here is what I'm reading in July 2014:
Das goldene Ei / The golden egg by Donna Leon
I HAVE to read the new adventures of Commissario Brunetti every summer. Without it, it wouldn´t be a real summer for me. I read the first one while being on vacation when I was 14, so this means nearly 20 years of this routine.
I know the are not high poetry, but I like her writing style and the way it´s always not only a story about a crime, but also a story about venice.
(Funny fact, did you know these books are translated into 35 different languages, but on her demand not into italan? Leon wants the venetian people to meet her without prejudice and reservation, because she gets her story backrounds from them. I think that is really funny.)
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling
What do I have to say about that, probably not a lot. I´m reading this for the forth or fifth time, still loving it. This is the first time reading all the books in a row, so far I always read the new book when it came out or the prequel right before the arrivel of a new one to get into the mood.
Where have all the boys gone by Sophie Kinsella
I think I got to read my first book (Meet me at the Cupecake cafe, also very good) of Sophie Kinsella by amzone recommendations.
At the moment I´m reading all her older books via the kindle app on my iphone, for one they are cheap, and for two I always have my phone on hand while being awake at night breastfeeding.
These books are funny, simple chickflicks, the story isn´t new or very complex, not at all suprising, but I like them anyway...
