This week I've been mainly been reading, no. 193.
For a book group I've just read Liane Moriarty's Nine Perfect Strangers (2018) & while I enjoyed the plot & structure, it is rather over-written (or almost baroque in its expression). I guess I'm now so used to much sparser style of writing that I found this pretty frustrating to read; I just wanted less exposition.

…I wonder why they changed the red white and blue colour scheme on the cover…
…and used the exact same cover illustrations as for Husband Material?

It’s the German edition of Husband Material.
(Also, 10 Things That Never Happened becomes The Lost Memory Project. I’m not sure why they change the title but still have it in English on the cover, unless that’s just a Hoopla thing)
