2/5: Adam Kay’s account of medical training, This is Going to Hurt: Secret Diaries of a Junior Doctor, is one of those books that resonated with me pretty hard — his memories of medical meatgrinder which you more or less survive on stubbornness, altruism and sheer exhausted determination (Kay is a British NHS gynecologist who is no longer practicing).

Ao se impressionar com a beleza daquele jovem, Henry se torna uma influência nefasta, levando-o a se tornar uma pessoa que coloca o prazer e a diversão acima de tudo, independentemente de machucar as pessoas. E ao concluir o retrato, Dorian faz o desejo de não envelhecer e sim que o retrato faça isso por ele. E é atendido. O Retrato de Dorian Gray é um fascinante estudo de person...| www.goodreads.com
4/5: This setting for this novel is Devon England and focuses on four generations of Fairchild women. Lillian is a famed mystery author living in an amazing old mansion which overlooks the sea. She is the mother of Poppy, grandmother to Poppy's daughter Zoe and great grandmother to Isabel. The story is told from all four women's point of view. It's interesting to read their chapters and see their perspectives, unique from one another based on different experiences. Lillian reveals she wanted ...| www.goodreads.com
4/5: When I read this description on the jacket of the book I was instantly hooked before I started it: “Her sister has been dead for fifteen years when she sees her on the TV news… Josie Bianci was killed years ago on a train during a terrorist attack. Gone forever. It’s what her sister, Kit, an ER doctor in Santa Cruz, has always believed. Yet all it takes is a few heart-wrenching seconds to upend Kit’s world. Live coverage of a club fire in Auckland has captured the image of a woma...| www.goodreads.com

4/5: “Sometimes future demands sacrifice.” Having read a string of quite unsatisfying novellas recently, I was about to start doubting the genre. But then Adrian Tchaikovsky as always swoops in and seemingly effortlessly shows how it’s done, how a sharply and skillfully written novella can be perfect for its length, with all the worlbuilding and character development and interesting well-paced plot happening at the same time and in the same space. Tchaikovsky doesn’t fall into the com...| www.goodreads.com

2/5: The idea of this world seemed interesting — who doesn’t like wormhole travel complications? Even if the premise of human navigators that belong to specific clans using their “Shadows” coming from their vitality to help navigate the ships to avoid the horrors living in the wormhole space is a bit odd, I’ve loved the books that were much stranger (Gideon the Ninth, for instance). “Most people didn’t appreciate being told all of the truth, and Nhi couldn’t always understand ...| www.goodreads.com

4/5: “I am learning that it is important to stop sometimes, and just have a drink and a gossip with friends, even as corpses start to pile up around you. Which they have been doing a lot recently. It's a balancing act, of course, but, by and large, the corpses will still be there in the morning, and you mustn't let it spoil your Domino's.” Adorable, sweet and funny as only a murder mystery story featuring spies, drug dealers and stolen diamonds and solved by a septuagenarian pensioner qua...| www.goodreads.com
3/5: “The sun is up, the skies are blue, and murder is in the air.” It’s the ultimate cupcake of a murder(s) mystery solved by a septuagenarian quartet in an upscale retirement village aided by a plucky detective, with no pretense of being “real”. It’s both adorable and lovely and funny — and yet has a touch of bittersweet that comes with the knowledge that time is going by but there’s still so much of life to want to live, but loss and loneliness and pain of ageing are never ...| www.goodreads.com
