A Day with a Book
Book Stats: Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky, published in the year 1866. Today I had some free time on hand, so I decided to return the previously borrowed book from the library as the date of return was closing by. Cycling to the library while enjoying the cool breeze and silent street, it was still early in the day. The library only had the librarian who was sorting out the books. Returning the book I asked for a recommendation on a deep moralistic novel, the librarian gave me a smile and pushed a book towards me. Taking it I sat by the window in the library and started reading. It is Russian language, though I am not proficient in this language, I know enough to get by. So I started reading it took me quiet sometime but here's my opinion on it.

Rachel Reviews: The Greater Good by Frank Sapienza
One of the joys of reading is that you are often presented with situations that you can only hope to imagine. They could be fantastical but they could also be based on real life scenarios. Some of these can be good but some of them can be the embodiment of your worst nightmare. Books provide a sample menu, I think, a bit like films, where you get a taste of a situation or a world and you can see if you like it or realise it's one you hope never to encounter in real life. Like The Terminator or Sophie's Choice as two excellent examples.

Fourth Wing
It's been a while since I have been able to sit down and read a book. Finally, when the opportunity presented itself, I convinced myself to buy the book Fourth Wing. Why? Well, everyone was talking about it. It had dragons in it and all the reviews were just raving how good the book was and I had a bit of fear entering my body because "Twilight" was also well liked by readers. After reading the first sentence of that book, I said "is that even a sentence?" out loud and I put it down and never touched it again. Most fantasy books have a lot of unneeded jargon in my opinion, so here I thought I would have the same situation. I started reading it and so far the sentences were making sense. I think what I liked most about the beginning is that it covered no details on the language used like "threshing" I had no idea what that was, but as I read on, I learned more and more about this world where humans bond to their dragons. The complexity of each character is well outlined and defined, which I lack in my writing. I appreciate how much thought was put into each character. From Violet to Xaden, Dain and Rhiannon they have differences in them and have their own fears and personal lives that are mentioned. Each character even minor have a lot of depth to them, which is rare to see. Next, each chapter has a fun fact about the world of Navarre and other regions as well.

Rachel Reviews: The Locked Room by Elly Griffiths
I'd not heard of Ruth Galloway before and bought this book on a whim, but I'm glad that I did because it was another good police style mystery series. Set in Norfolk on the east coast of England, this book is a later one in a series so the characters are known to each other and there is history there of which readers of the other books will have awareness. However, I didn't find that not having read them hindered my reading of this book at all. Indeed, Griffiths rather helpfully provides a summary of the characters at the end of the book, which can be referred to ahead of the novel to fix the key players in your mind.
