Du kan foreslå noe annet 😅

British female track and field athletes are being asked to cover the cost of their own £185 sex tests if they want to compete internationally. Because curbing trans people's rights to participate in anything subjects everyone to intrusive scrutiny and here, hefty expense. This is not a 'them' issue.

Behold, the Rogaland is activated!

Hooman!!! Come upstairs NOW!

Good afternoon Womble. Finally some sunshine, so I started reading Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell, as my first balcony read this year

That book is so good and so scary.

I know 🥳 can't wait!

No, Children of Ruin and Children of Memory are the follow-ups. Shroud is a standalone novel.

Shroud was fabulous, I always get surprised how imaginative Tchaikovsky is

Store, kraftfulle tiltak: for dyrt!

Mindre tiltak: symbolpolitikk!

Personlige tiltak: jammen Kina!

Internasjonale tiltak: Brüssel! Eliter!

Ida Therese Klungland - Jeg angrer ikke på noe ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Jakub er en slik karakter du føler med, er litt sint på av og til, vil gi en god klem her og der men til syvende og sist vil høre mer om.
Veldig sårbar, veldig emosjonelt og veldig tenårings

Rachel Reid - Heated Rivalry ⭐⭐⭐⭐
That is such a cute story - and yes, full of gay boys smut.

January reads 10/12 📚💙 #booksky
Jodi Picoult - Wish you were here ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Picoult writes so good, it is so easy to fly through her stories. And as always with a huge twist

January reads 9/12 💙📚 #booksky
Leander Djønne - Alt et ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Fryktelig mørkt, full av vold, mishandling og stygge "familietradisjoner".
Vet ikke om den kan anbefales engang, så grusomt er den.

Tore Renberg - Dette er mine gamle dager ⭐⭐⭐
Jeg har lest Kompani Orheim for en god stund siden og Renbergs skrivestil er bare helt nydelig.
Det er nok bare Jarle som voksen person jeg ikke helt får fatt i.

This is not the book for fast-paced action or typical banter in the romantasy genre.
This is a slow developed relationship between the main couple, and it is discovering a new world. Most of all it is sisterhood and women being strong for each other.
More of this!

Kara Reynolds - Priestess ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
A gem!
Fantasy with adult FMCs, with delicate world-building and a storyline that has no rush - all elements that work so well together.

The cover of the book The secret of secrets showing an astrological clock

January reads 6/12 💙📚 #booksky
Dan Brown - The secret of secrets ⭐⭐⭐
A typical Dan Brown book, good, fast-paced entertainment. In my opinion, this could easily be some 150 pages shorter and still would have enough racing around Praha and solve all those puzzles

January reads 4/12 #booksky 💙📚
Jussi Adler-Olsen - Fasandreperne ⭐⭐⭐
Ikke så mye en krim siden man hele tiden vet hvem som er forbryter. Men mer en veldig mørk bok.
Kunne gjerne hatt litt "trigger warning"

dagene der verden kunne gå under fordi noen andre hadde sagt en setning eller to som ikke passet inn i ens liv?
Og nettopp dette overflod av følelser, fra verdens beste til fryktelig kjærlighetssorg, er hjerte av denne boken.

Ida Therese Klungland - Alt jeg har å tape ⭐⭐⭐⭐
For en liten perle av en bok
Jeg er riktignok langt fra målgruppen, men hvem husker vel ikke tenårene og de store og små tragedier og

Folan gives Gruoch so much depth, emotions through the whole spectre of the characters development and makes her story heartfelt and relatable
Recommended!

C.H. Folan - The Queen is dead ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This book 💔!A well-known story, Macbeth, told from a female viewpoint. And it shows that this is written by a woman to give another woman her place.

The cover of the book Earth's end showing the female heroine dressed in armor

Elise Kova - Earth's end ⭐⭐⭐
oh the tragic drama!
When you almost thought the two lovers were safe...But I guess I had to see it coming with two books still to come.

Been gone for 4 days, Maud is now even more clingy ❤️🥹 #catsofbluesky #proofofcat
