Life Update: Book Worm
Tomorrow morning I will be going for eye surgery on my right eye. This will mean that December will largely be passed listening to audiobooks rather than physical book reading.
My apologies to Netgalley for the delay in reading and reviewing my non audio books but normal service will resume soon.
Blog readers don’t worry I have a few posts set up already to cover some of my absence…

Booker 2021 Our Predictions for Winner
BookWorm: For me the winner has to be Bewilderment this book has it all. It is timely, it is relevant, it is beautiful and it really spoke to me.
Tracy: Fortune Men
Nicole: Do I go with the majority, or do I pick an outlier ….I’m torn between The Promise and Bewilderment. Grrr, still agitated about Great Circle. I’m going with … The Promise.
Lisa: Bewilderment really pulled it all together for me… a parent who loves his child but is bewildered by both the child and the world in which they live. That is, our world.
Anita: I only read three of the six shortlisted novels, and none of the three really worked for me. The shortlist overall didn’t really appeal to me this year, but I strongly suspect, the winner will be Bewilderment.
Who do you think will win?
