Not too much to say about the books read this month. Again I liked most of them okay, but didn't really enjoy reading any them, I couldn't get lost in them. At least in the first two fiction books I read I wanted to shake the main characters and tell them to just stop. Again I don't believe you have to like the characters to like a book, and I think you have to judge protagonists decisions as if they are true to that character and not something you yourself would necessarily do. But right now I'm feeling really tired to characters who act in a way that I can't relate to or understand.
Books I read in July:
• The House at Riverton by Kate Morton
• Tipping the Velvet by Sarah Waters
• The Woman Warrior by Maxine Hong Kingston
• What Is Not Yours Is Not Yours by Helen Oyeyemi
• You Are Here: Discovering the Magic of the Present Moment by Thich Nhat Hanh
Audio Books listened to in July
• Cooked: A Natural History of Transformation by Michael Pollan(worth listening too/reading even though I saw the Netflix series)
Movies & TV Watched in July:
• Jessica Jones Season 1
• Penny Dreadful Season 1 (don't think I'm going to continue with this one)
• Jane the Virgin Season 1
Tipping the Velvet was just too much for me, although I enjoyed Fingersmith and Affinity. And season 2 of Penny Dreadful is my favorite of the 3; it spends more time developing the characters and some really interesting background episodes for Miss Ives. I generally don't like a lot of violence and blood but season 2 was worth my time. The Creature is my favorite character.
ReplyDeleteThere are things I like about it and I'm interested to see where it goes. I wish there was a way I could just watch the parts I like and not the upsetting gory parts:\

I understand the feeling of being unable to connect with characters in books. It can be frustrating when their decisions seem distant or incomprehensible. However, if you seek a more engaging reading experience, consider exploring assignment help services in Manchester. They can provide valuable insights into character development and enhance understanding of protagonists' actions, making your reading journey more fulfilling and enjoyable. Give it a try, and you might discover a newfound appreciation for diverse literary perspectives.

DeleteIELTS exam dates 2025 will play a critical role for students and professionals aiming to work or study abroad. It’s essential to check the test dates early and align them with university deadlines or visa requirements. I also heard that some centers allow rescheduling; could you clarify how that works and if there are any additional charges? Moreover, are weekend dates more in demand than weekday slots? I believe a list of tips on booking dates, especially during peak application periods, would help a lot of readers. Knowing about IELTS exam dates 2025 in advance is the first step toward efficient preparation, and your post makes it so much simpler to plan ahead.
