  • Everything is Tuberculosis

    By John Green
    4 stars

    I definitely didn't think a book about tuberculosis of all things would hook me in. This was an eye-opening book for me! I didn't even realise that tb was still a thing, but it turns out it's still the most deadly infectious disease in the world?! Even though it's preventable AND curable. This book touches on the history of TB, social impacts, evolution over time, inequalities of treatment and so on. Much more than just 'tuberculosis'. I am not generally much of a non-fiction reader but this is one I would recommend!

  • Before the coffee gets cold

    By Toshikazu Kawaguchi

    If I could give half stars it would be a 3.5 out of 5. Started slow but picked up. Lots of interesting characters and quite heart warming. It's based around the concept of time travel in a very simplistic way, just don't think too much about it or try to make it make sense... Contemplating ordering the next book just to revisit the characters.

    Lots of twists. Very enjoyable read all the way through, a little hectic towards to end.

  • Never Lie

    By Freida McFadden
    4 stars

    Loved this. The sort of book you finish in 2 days with lots of unexpected twists.

  • Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow

    By Gabrielle Zevin
    4 stars

    Easy to read. Layered storytelling mostly about friendship and how it changes over time. Made me to want to play video games.
