					<description><![CDATA[A short list of books I'm currently reading, a photo shoot and a selfie.]]></description>
										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="p1">I’ve just finished reading <em>The Salt of the Earth</em> by Józef Wittlin. It’s a pacifist historical novel first published in 1936. It&#8217;s very poetic but very hard to read. The new edition will be published in February 2019, you can <a href="https://amzn.to/2C9Q4P8" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pre-order the book </a>now. My full review of the book will also be posted later.<br />
<img decoding="async" fetchpriority="high" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-443" src="/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/screen-shot-2018-10-11-at-17-37-33.png" alt="Screen Shot 2018-10-11 at 17.37.33" width="1069" height="696" /></p>
<p class="p1">After the deep but complicated book, reading something entertaining is even more exciting than it usually is. I&#8217;m now happy and quick like a puppy in an autumn forest.</p>
<p>Here are my entertaining books.</p>
<h4>1. <strong><em>The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo</em> by Taylor Jenkins Reid<br />
<img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-444" src="/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/screen-shot-2018-10-11-at-17-45-49.png" alt="Screen Shot 2018-10-11 at 17.45.49" width="926" height="596" /><br />
</strong></h4>
<p class="p1">Umut praised <em>The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo</em> <a href="https://umutreviews.wordpress.com/2018/08/29/the-reason-of-my-hurting-eyes-coffee-overdose-seven-husbands-of-evelyn-hugo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">in her review</a>, and once again it was a good decision to follow her recommendation.</p>
<p class="p1"><a href="https://amzn.to/2A4Xi5H" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The book</a> is absolutely amazing! It’s such an interesting, attractive read. I keep thinking about it and I can&#8217;t wait to go back to reading it. (An update: You can now read <a href="/2018/10/22/seven-husbands-of-evelyn-hugo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">my review of </a><em><a href="/2018/10/22/seven-husbands-of-evelyn-hugo/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo</a>)</em></p>
<h4 class="p1"><strong>2. <em>The Searcher</em> by Simon Toyne</strong><br />
<img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-446" src="/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/screen-shot-2018-10-11-at-17-51-39.png" alt="Screen Shot 2018-10-11 at 17.51.39" width="890" height="568" /></h4>
<p class="p1">I’m enjoying how fast-paced <em><a href="https://amzn.to/2QJUOyV" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Searcher</a></em> is, although it’s a bit confusing to be following so many characters especially when the protagonist is confused himself having lost all his memory. The reason I’ve started reading <em>The Searcher</em> is the following book.</p>
<h4 class="p1">3. <strong><em>The Boy Who Saw</em> by Simon Toyne</strong></h4>
<figure id="attachment_447" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-447" style="width: 3621px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-447" src="/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/img_20181011_164620_hdr-01.jpeg" alt="IMG_20181011_164620_HDR-01.jpeg" width="3621" height="2108" /><figcaption id="caption-attachment-447" class="wp-caption-text"><br />The cover was begging for some creative photo shoot.</figcaption></figure>
<p class="p1">My husband recently visited a country where books are sold even in pharmacies! Can you imagine that?! I can’t. He sent me a quick message with a photo of a book stall and told me I had five minutes to choose. After hasty googling I chose <a href="https://amzn.to/2pKjyvI" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><em>The Boy Who Saw</em></a>.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" loading="lazy" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-448" src="/wp-content/uploads/2018/10/screen-shot-2018-10-11-at-17-57-28.png" alt="Screen Shot 2018-10-11 at 17.57.28" width="1018" height="621" /><br />
It’s the second book in <em>Solomon Creed</em> series, so I started reading <em>The Searcher</em> first.</p>
<p>I hope I’ll wrap them all up before <a href="/2018/10/09/beautiful-covers/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">my treasures</a> start arriving <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/14.0.0/72x72/1f48e.png" alt="💎" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/14.0.0/72x72/1f48e.png" alt="💎" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /><img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/14.0.0/72x72/1f48e.png" alt="💎" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>
<p>Have you read any of them? What did you think (spoiler-free speaking)? <img src="https://s.w.org/images/core/emoji/14.0.0/72x72/1f642.png" alt="🙂" class="wp-smiley" style="height: 1em; max-height: 1em;" /></p>
