Sometimes it feels like I never get to read anything new

[conuly]

This is factually untrue - I just finished a new book yesterday - but it does feel that way.

Recommend something to me! Especially nonfiction - I really don't read much of that, so I can promise that I'll never have read whatever you recommend! (Whereas if you recommend anything kidlit or YA there's better than even odds that I've read it.)

Later I'll post up my own list of random recommendations for everybody, but right now I really must dash.

I basically never read nonfiction anymore. Can't say why.

The most interesting new novel I've read recently is I stared at the night of the city by Kurdish author Bachtyar Ali. I recently started on En finir avec Eddy Belleguele (which almost counts as a memoir) and I'm enjoying it though it's pretty harrowing.

Thanks :)

What's the Kurdish author's novel about, then?

Ultimately about the power of imagination. It's difficult to sum up in a sentence or two.
